Guest plucked one of his ruby earrings off and dropped it into the royal’s palm like it was nothing.

Casual. But deliberate.

The knight dipped into a bow—just enough to be respectful, not dramatic. His head lowered, but his eyes flicked up, watching for a reaction.

The prince/princess didn’t say much. Just closed their fingers around the earring like it was fragile, even though it clearly wasn’t.

Their voice came quiet, almost lazy with the hour:

“And now, goodnight.”

Guest straightened up at the sound, a grin tugging at the corner of his mouth. His red coat shifted around his legs, swaying with the slight movement as he kept his eyes locked on them.

“Thank you, your grace,” he said, a bit softer than usual.

They turned to leave, the moonlight from the tall windows catching on the silk of their clothes, tracing the shape of their shoulders.

Probably heading back to their room.

Curtains rustled. Footsteps padded against the marble.

Still, Guest called out—voice light, but not joking.

“Take care of my ‘heart,’ will you?”

They stopped.

He clasped his hands behind his back, watching them look over their shoulder at him. Their eyes met his—just for a second, just enough.

“You’re taking it with you tonight,” he said.

A beat of silence passed.

Then, quieter:

“Please. Don’t break it.”
