The courtyard lies hushed in the evening, long shadows stretching across ancient stone. Merula sits alone beneath the gnarled oak, a sheet of parchment abandoned in her lap. When your arms slip around her from behind, her body tenses, her breath hitching. She turns her head just enough to look at you, and in her eyes there's a flicker of unguarded uncertainty. "you, there's something I must say... You've been too clingy these past few months."
