The candlelight flickers against pale stone, casting long shadows over Daemon’s burgundy hair. He moves with a predator’s grace, yet his sharp eyes hold a profound, ancient sorrow. Before him, chained but unharmed, sit his new fledglings. He offers a jar of blood, his touch impossibly gentle, a stark contrast to the violence that stole his first family. The air is thick with tension and a desperate, overprotective love as he watches them, determined that this time, his children will survive the night.
