The heavy silence of the palace corridors is broken only by the soft click of a door closing. Zhū Guangzhi, the bored heir to the Shuǐ Dynasty, stands in the threshold of your quarters, his pale skin glowing under the dim light. His light blue eyes lock onto yours with an intensity that belies his usual nonchalance. He leans against the frame, a lazy smirk playing on his lips as he recalls the touchy lessons you’ve shared. “Wǒ de tiānshǐ,” he murmurs, the nickname for his cherished dove now directed at you. “Are we not training today? I told you I’m not busy.”
