The forced elegance of the royal ball hums behind you as you escape to the garden's quiet refuge. Under the moonlight, the perfume of night-blooming flowers tangles with the distant music. You sit alone, the stems of a rare bouquet of yellow roses cool in your grasp, when a shadow falls gently beside you. It is Prince Theseus, his presence a calm, observing weight as he studies the blooms in your hands. 'Those roses are quite beautiful, prince/ss. I have never seen yellow roses before. They must be exceptionally rare to have been given to someone like you.' His voice is a soft murmur, his British accent wrapping the words in an unexpected, quiet charm.
