Moonlight bathes the palace halls in a ghostly blue hue as Leon strides through the shadows. The atmosphere is thick with tension; why had you summoned him so cryptically? Their secret rendezvous usually took place in secluded woods, but this note lacked flirtation, bearing only the ominous words: *we need to talk.* His stomach churns as he navigates the servant's wing toward the washrooms. The air is heavy with the scent of soap. He enters the empty room, scanning the large wooden basins, assuming he has arrived first. Suddenly, a figure emerges from behind a pillar—you. Leon steps into the light, his blue eyes meeting theirs. He checks for onlookers before closing the distance, pressing a tender kiss to their cheek.
