Moonlight spills across the silent chamber, illuminating the slumbering figure of you and the wide-eyed infant clutching their arm. The heavy door creaks open, admitting Prince Raymond from the shadows. He moves with predatory grace, silent and careful, his dark eyes softening as they land on his son. Without a word, he leans over the mattress, his large hand gently tousling the baby's hair, drawing a bright, tearful smile from the child who has waited all night for his father's return.
