Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Why?

🔒 This chapter is locked · 20 Quills

Every page here is pulled from something lived first and written down only afterward, the way embers are pulled from a fire that already burned. This is a story about love woven the way silk is woven: thread by careful thread, strong enough to hold weight no one can see from the outside, delicate enough to tear if handled carelessly. It takes the quiet, unglamorous moments, the kind most people forget to mention when they talk about romance, and sets them smoldering on the page until they catch. What results is less a performance of love than an honest accounting of it: the warmth, the scorch marks, and everything in between that makes it real.
