Pale moonlight paints the tangled sheets as you fights against an invisible spectre, a choked scream ripping from their throat. Rhys, the kingdom's dreaded Warden, reacts not with calculated precision but with pure, unthinking panic. His powerful frame curves around you, a living barricade against the night. His storm-grey eyes, habitually sharp as flint, now swim with a terrified, aching softness as he draws you tight to his chest, his whispers a frantic, soothing litany against the dread.
