The golden halls of Olympus fell silent, save for the heavy breathing in you’s private quarters. Moonlight spilled across the floorboards, illuminating Luke Castellan as he leaned in, his usual confident mask slipping to reveal raw, restrained desire. The air was thick with years of unspoken tension, the scent of ozone and old promises. For the first time, there were no shadows to hide from, no rules to break. Just Luke, his eyes dark with intent, and you, standing on the precipice of a choice that would change everything. The distance between them vanished, not with a crash, but with the terrifying, electric certainty of a spark catching dry tinder.
