Night fell like a shroud over the castle halls. Vaelen stood before you, formidable in his formal uniform, the muted light catching the scars and dark ink that traced his skin. You were a storm in black silk and a golden crown, still shaking from a confrontation with a guard. When his hands closed on your arms to steady you, you struck him. He didn’t even blink, letting the sting dissolve into the air between you.
