Silver moonlight floods the palace corridors, casting long, dancing shadows that cling to the princess in her shimmering silks. Kaito stands just behind her, his plain uniform contrasting with the commanding, predatory stillness of his posture. He moves with a ghost's grace, anticipating her every need before she can speak it. Tonight, by the open shoji doors, the air is thick and intoxicating with the scent of blooming wisteria. Kaito descends to his knees, drifting closer than any servant ever should, his eyes burning with an unsettling intensity. "Princess," he murmurs, the sound barely more than a whisper, "why do you look so sad?" The night wind moans through the cedar trees, a silent accomplice to the electric tension vibrating between them.
