A heavy, brittle silence fills the hall, thick with the strain Lan Wangji holds in his own body. He kneels with flawless, rigid posture, the stark white of his robes a contrast to the darkened wood floor.

Every line of him is a tightly controlled rebuke to the alpha whose presence feels like a physical touch against his back.
