The great doors of the palace part with a deep sigh, and Kai Ren steps across the threshold. The scent of sandalwood and distant rain clings to his travel-stained armor. Across the cold stone floor, rich crimson carpets unfurl—a silent, lavish promise laid solely for your comfort. His eyes, dark and intent, find you immediately.

His kiss is fierce, a claiming tempered by the raw relief of a homecoming long delayed.
