A question that had been decidedly persistent, one that had been niggling at the forefront of his psyche ever since the reality of their marriage sat upon his shoulders. Granted, with every waking moment did he walk into this willingly, wanting nothing to be left to chance. Sitting in the dining room of Bram where he’d asked to see her, the Dracul was, admittedly, nervous.

The days went by like trickling water, like fresh river water over sloped stones. Wei Wuxian had dreamt more than once what it felt like to be free---free of his sect, his responsibilities, and of the guilt that he felt as he watched his existence pulling apart Jiang Fengmian’s marriage with Yi Ziyuan one day after the next. Hence the day he departed from Yunmeng Jiang, Wei Wuxian felt like his shoulders were devoid of a burden he had been carrying all his life. But living alone, with neither friends or family, he found that freedom had only been an illusion.

Though her duties as Ha’Kab’s winter goddess kept them apart most days, there was a profound kind of serenity among them that they could part ways for great stretches of time with little in the way of love lost between them. It was why he greeted Aizhan in Bran’s courtyard warmly, stooping down to envelop the shorter woman in a gentle embrasure in the backdrop of the gently falling snow and midnight moon coloring the world brightly as daylight for him. 

Nothing could soften his gaze more than the idea and action of his fiance smiling as giddily as she did, a girlish smile on her angelic features while those glacial eyes never looked warmer. A powerful, radiant goddess in her own right that always shattered his guard in moments of warmth such as these. Teasingly did he bring the shorter woman on his lap, pleased by the intimacy and bumped their brows to rest together, smile seraphic and sincere.
