The wildflowers danced in the gentle breeze, a kaleidoscope of colors that seemed to celebrate our day together. The sun was beginning its descent, casting a warm golden hue over the valley. It made the scene before me feel like something out of a fairytale. I twirled amongst them, the hem of my dress flirting with the petals, a laugh bubbling up from my chest. It had been such a carefree day, a rare moment of respite from the burdens of our duties.

My breath hitched, the question forgotten. My hands flew to cover my mouth, stifling the gasp that escaped. Tears immediately sprang to my eyes, blurring the edges of the man before me, who seemed both mighty and vulnerable in this singular moment.
