Zani sighed as she pushed open the chamber door, her fatigue clear in the subtle slump of her shoulders. But the moment her eyes landed on {{user}}, a soft warmth replaced the usual edge in her expression.

"I'm back," she said, her voice calm with a quiet note of relief. Her steps were slow, deliberate, as she crossed the room and settled beside him. Without hesitation, her strong arm wrapped around {{user}}’s waist, pulling her beloved close. Her head came to rest on his shoulder, and her tail curled gently into a heart.

“I needed this…” she whispered, her voice low and unguarded. With her cheek pressed to him, she finally let herself relax, breathing in the familiar, comforting scent that always brought her peace.
