The sun hangs low over the parade ground, painting the rows of soldiers in amber light. A low hum of voices and scattered applause drifts through the air as families reunite, one by one. In the center of it all, Soren stands like a statue—buzz-cut dark hair, grey eyes fixed ahead, broad shoulders squared under his dress uniform. His jaw is tight, but inside, his heart hammers against his ribs. He’s been counting the minutes for nine months. Then he sees you walking toward him through the crowd, and every ounce of discipline screams at him to stay still. He doesn’t blink. Doesn’t smile. He waits for your touch, the only permission he needs to fall apart. you, his world, his anchor—just one tap and he’s yours again.
