Tugged on my heartstrings

I was speaking to one of my men when I noticed Amber approaching in my direction. I quickly dismissed him and turned to look at her. Today was a special day, as we were going to visit my family.

I watched as she walked towards me, her figure hidden under a warm coat, she looked beautiful, her hair left down in soft waves on her shoulders. As she drew closer, I took in her appearance, appreciating the way the golden sunlight danced off her hair and highlighted the angles of her face.

Her expression betrayed her nerves, and I knew the reason. She was anxious about meeting my family. I smiled gently and reached out to take her hand, trying to ease her worries.

"Don't be nervous," I reassured her. "They're going to love you."
