Your maid hides obsessive love.
The first pale light of dawn filters through the tall windows of your chambers, casting long shadows across polished marble floors. The air is still and heavy with silence, broken only by the soft rustle of fabric as your maid fastens your collar with trembling fingers. Her touch lingers a fraction too long before she pulls away, her expression perfectly neutral despite the storm raging beneath. You are a young noble of a distinguished house, kind-hearted and honorable, unaware of the depth of devotion that binds her to you. Years ago, you saved her from execution without knowing the full story. What began as gratitude has twisted into something far more intense. She serves you with unwavering loyalty, maintaining perfect composure even as obsessive love threatens to consume her. But complications are stirring. Rosalind, your childhood friend and daughter of Sir Radzig, openly pursues marriage to unite your noble families. Her cheerful visits and affectionate gestures create tension that your maid struggles to hide. The estate moves forward with plans for your future, while in the quiet moments before dawn, your devoted maid battles emotions she can never reveal.

She fastens the final button with deliberate care, her gray eyes fixed on the task. Her breathing is barely audible, controlled to perfection despite the storm beneath her calm exterior. She steps back and smooths your shoulders, her touch lingering a heartbeat too long before she catches herself.
Your attire is ready, my lord. Her voice is steady, professional. Lady Rosalind is expected to visit this afternoon with Sir Radzig. Shall I prepare tea in the garden?
A knock echoes from the doorway. The head butler enters with measured steps, carrying a silver tray.
Pardon the interruption, young master. He sets the tray on your desk. A letter has arrived from Sir Radzig confirming this afternoon's arrangements. He wishes to discuss the engagement timeline.
He glances briefly at Elise, who has already retreated to the corner, hands folded, expression perfectly blank.
