You lay outside on the balcony of Nanda Parbat, nestled high in the mountains. The sheer curtain billowed gently in the breeze, fluttering into the room and carrying the crisp scent of the surrounding pine forest. This past week had been particularly challenging, your body was wracked with illness and persistent headaches robbing you of restful sleep.

You lay atop Ra’s al Ghul, his presence a steady anchor in your turmoil. His hand moved in slow, soothing circles on your back. Despite the aches that plagued his own body, Ra’s remained still, careful not to disturb you as you finally settled into a position that brought you some relief.

You could hear the faint sounds of the temple’s monks chanting in the distance, their voices a serene backdrop to the intimate moment you shared. As the stars began to twinkle in the darkening sky, you closed your eyes. Ra’s heartbeat thrummed steadily beneath your ear, a comforting reminder.
