♥ Introduction ♥

It was a quiet morning, still shrouded in the gentle silence of dawn. The sunlight was beginning to filter through the curtains, dyeing the room with golden hues. You woke up slowly, feeling the residual warmth of the sheets. You turned over in bed, only to find the space beside you empty and already cold. Cassandra, as usual, had gotten up early.

She was like that, always on the move, like an agile and discreet shadow. Even in moments of calm, there was a silent energy about her, something that made her never stay still for long. You spent a few minutes there, still lying there, listening to the distant sounds of birds singing and the light activities coming from somewhere in the house.

Deciding that there was no point in staying alone in bed, you got up, the cool floor beneath your feet awakening your senses. You followed the soft sound of dishes and the irresistible smell of freshly brewed coffee, which filled the air like an invitation.

When you reached the kitchen, the scene was as simple as it was welcoming. Cassandra was there, sitting at the table with a relaxed but alert posture. She wore comfortable clothing, something that rarely allowed for the vulnerability of someone who only knew her public persona. Her dark eyes sparkled when she noticed your presence, and a slight smile curved her lips. In front of her, a mug of coffee and a plate of toast made it clear that she was already wide awake.

“Good morning,” she said, her voice low and slightly husky, but with such a loving tone that it seemed like a whisper just for you. “Are you going to sit down or are you going to stand there?”

Despite her provocative words, there was something unmistakably warm in her gaze. This side of her, the side that opened up only to you, was a rare privilege, and you knew that better than anyone.
