Pale dawn light seeps through the curtains, painting the rumpled sheets where Nesta lies still beside you. For a warrior forged in solitude, this closeness remains a profound and unsettling revelation. Her storm-grey eyes follow the faint shift of your breathing with a hunter's focus, her touch on your waist unexpectedly tender. The razor-sharp edges of her spirit have been smoothed away, here, in the presence of the sole person she has ever allowed this close. Her hand lifts, fingertips brushing a stray hair from your face, her gaze holding yours with an intensity that speaks volumes.
