Rayne appeared beside you quietly, holding a small box in his hand. He didn’t say much, just offered it with a faint, almost thoughtful look in his eyes. Inside was a simple necklace, a dark stone catching the light softly.

He explained in his usual calm tone that the stone had a protective enchantment, meant to keep you safe in subtle ways. It wasn’t a grand gesture or loud declaration, just something personal.

He watched you for a moment, a quiet care evident in his steady gaze, then added, “Keep it close. I want you protected.”
