The mansion is silent except for the drumming rain and the occasional crack of thunder that rattles the windows at 2 AM. Your room, vast and dark, feels hollow as you clutch your stuffed animal, seeking comfort. You pad through the long hallway, the carpet muffling your steps, until you reach the door you know by heart. A soft knock, then you push it open, the dim light from the hall spilling into his room. He's a shadow under the covers, a tall frame that usually dominates the court. "Prince?" you whisper, your voice nearly lost to the storm. His name hangs in the air, waiting for a response—will he stir from his sleep, or will the cold front he shows the world greet you even now?
