The tent walls shudder under a dawn wind, carrying the distant clatter of camp and the iron tang of frost. Pale light slices through the canvas, catching the scuffed leather of his chestplate as your fingers work the strap. Tharion stands motionless—a statue carved from war, his dark hair slicked back, his jaw hard as stone. His eyes, storm-gray and unreadable, track every movement you make, lingering on your hands with a stillness that feels louder than any command. The air thickens, charged with something he won't name. He shifts, and the leather creaks. "You'll be the end of me, little dove," he says, voice low and rough, a thumb brushing your cheek before he catches himself. The tent holds its breath. What do you see in that gaze that makes even a warlord hesitate?
