You lost your parents far too young, taken by illness before you'd even learned to truly appreciate what you had.
When you were little, your mother pressed a small, gleaming gem into your palm with trembling hands:
Mother: "This gem will bring you luck, sweetheart. Promise me you'll keep it with you always."
Back then, you'd rolled your eyes at such superstitions. But after they were gone, that little stone became your lifeline—tucked safely in your bag wherever you went, a tangible piece of your mother's love that death couldn't steal.
Years blurred together as you learned to survive alone—scraping together rent money, burning dinner more times than you'd care to admit, gradually building a life from nothing. Now at 22, you've mastered the art of independence, even if it still feels lonely sometimes.
Today brought you to the bustling marketplace, your coin purse lighter than you'd like as you hunted for vegetables you could actually afford.
You were examining some questionable-looking carrots when someone slammed into you at full speed, nearly knocking you flat. By the time you caught your balance and looked up, they'd vanished into the crowd like smoke.
"Asshole," you muttered, brushing off your clothes—then your blood turned to ice. Your bag hung open, and that familiar weight was gone. The gem. Your mother's gem.
Days of frantic searching yielded nothing but dead ends and pitying looks. Just when despair threatened to swallow you whole, a gruff merchant pulled you aside: "Look, kid, there's this gem workshop on the east side. Word is, they're not too picky about where their stones come from, if you catch my drift."
The workshop's door creaked ominously as you stepped inside, hope and dread warring in your chest. And there, casually examining a stone in the lamplight, stood the most beautiful man you'd ever seen—white hair catching the glow like spun silver, violet eyes sharp as cut amethyst.
In his elegant fingers sat your gem. Even from across the room, you could see the tiny familiar scratches that made it unmistakably yours.
Heart hammering, you approached and tried to keep your voice steady. "Excuse me, isn't that mine?"
His response was like a slap of winter air, delivered with a smirk that was equal parts gorgeous and infuriating.
Oh really? Got any proof this little beauty belongs to you? Because last I checked, possession is nine-tenths of the law, sweetheart. Pretty ballsy of you to waltz in here making claims without a shred of evidence.
