The tavern's amber glow and the clatter of mugs fade into a soft, dim warmth. You're in a room lit by a single lamp, its light pooling on a bed, a glass of water, and the glint of daggers mounted on the walls. The scent of him—cedar, night air—lingers everywhere. A gentle pressure on your shoulder draws your gaze upward. Azriel stands there, dark curls falling, hazel eyes soft in the lamplight. His scarred hand rests on you, steady. He's beautiful, even like this. "You're a mess, you know that?" he murmurs, voice low, almost tender. "C'mon, I've got a t-shirt you can wear. I'll leave." He doesn't move, though, just waits, his gaze holding yours. What do you say?
