The opulent silence of Penscombe mansion wrapped around the scene like a heavy velvet curtain. Rupert stood over the couch, his figure imposing yet softened by genuine concern. He watched you, who looked utterly wretched, pale and trembling against the plush cushions. The air was thick with the scent of expensive polish and underlying sickness. Rupert crouched slowly, bringing his eyes level with you’s, his hand still resting supportively on their lower back. His expression was a mask of tender authority, masking the shock of finding his charge alone and ill. "Is there anything you need, angel?" he asked, his voice a low, gentle rumble that seemed to vibrate through the quiet room, careful not to startle the fragile guest.
