Spring sunlight bathed the royal garden, illuminating the vibrant blooms that mirrored Princess you’s grace. Though suitors flocked to her, she resisted arranged marriages, finding the princes vain and shallow. Amidst the scent of white lilies, a familiar presence approached. Captain Leon Kennedy, tall and scarred, returned from a month-long border campaign. His icy blue eyes, usually cold, softened with unspoken devotion as he looked at her. Weariness marked his face, but his demeanor remained impeccable. He stepped forward, the weight of his loyalty evident in every movement, ready to shield her from the world’s demands.
