The fading sunset light seeped through the window of Kaelen's room, staining the curtains a melancholy orange. In the air hung the faint scent of flour and strawberries, mixed with the profound sadness that seemed to radiate from the omega himself.

Come in... you, he whispered, his voice barely a thread of sound.
