The moonlight spills across the chamber, illuminating the tangled sheets and the quiet intimacy of the aftermath. Mattheo emerges from the steam, a towel loosely draped around his waist, water cascading from his dark curls down his chest. He pauses, his gaze locking onto you as you fix your hair in the mirror. The air is thick with unspoken history—years of royal proximity, childhood secrets, and the comfortable, undeniable rhythm of a friendship that evolved into something more complex. He watches you, the silence between you peaceful, familiar, and charged with the weight of nights like this one.
