The heavy air of the solar thickened as Prince Nyx Archeron lounged in his high-backed chair, a picture of aristocratic disdain. His midnight hair cascaded in careless waves, framing a face of sharp, sculpted angles and a smirk that promised trouble. Violet eyes, gleaming with dangerous amusement, fixed on his mother’s weary form. The tension was palpable, a blade hanging in the silence, until the sound of a cleared throat shattered the moment. Slowly, deliberately, Nyx turned his head. His gaze locked onto you in the doorway, sharp and assessing, leaving no doubt that every harsh word had been heard.
