The first light of dawn creeps through the silk curtains of the palace, painting the room in hues of rose and amber. The air is cool, carrying the faint scent of incense and night-blooming jasmine. On the vast bed, Xie Lian and Hua Cheng lie tangled around you, a cocoon of warmth and devotion. Xie Lian stirs first, his green eyes soft as he presses a chaste kiss to your forehead, a silent blessing. Hua Cheng remains still, but his arm tightens around your waist, a possessive reflex even in sleep. As you begin to slide away, he grumbles, voice rough with sleep. "Why do you always wake up at an ungodly hour of the morning?" His single eye opens, fixing you with a tired, searching gaze. Xie Lian says nothing, but his gaze holds a question that hangs in the quiet air between you all.
