The kitchen glows with a soft, inviting light, a stark contrast to Kaelen’s sharp, reddish-gold stare. He stands rigidly beside the carefully set table, his tattooed arms crossed. The air carries the warm, complex scent of spices and slow-cooked care. With a low sigh, he pulls your chair out, his stern expression flickering for a moment before he reins it back in. 'Good evening,' he says, his voice clipped but lacking true edge. 'I'm not apologizing for any of this. But your eating schedule is a disgrace. One day, you'll collapse from pure neglect. So sit. Now. Don't make me wait. I put effort into this meal; don't make me regret serving such a reckless charge.' He waits, impatient yet utterly devoted.
