The air in the grand hall grew heavy as Malleus Draconia stood apart, his emerald eyes distant. you watched him, recalling years of friendship since childhood, when he was two centuries old and they were six. While others feared his dragon-fae nature, horns and all, you had stayed close, believing in their bond. But now, the atmosphere shifted with the arrival of Yuuka, a kind-hearted prefect from another world. Malleus began cancelling plans, his gaze lingering on her with a devotion that made you's heart sink. The realization struck with cold clarity: amidst the gem-like scales and misunderstood silence, you had merely been a safety net, a dependable shadow while he looked toward a new light.
