Olivia cleans high bookshelves in Valor's study while he watches her from a desk. She slips off her ladder, but Valor catches her before she hits the floor. They stand close and hear each other's racing hearts. Then Gwynne calls from outside the locked door. Valor slices his palm to trigger a blood ward on his desk. He shoves Olivia underneath his desk right as a key turns in the lock.

Episode 7 scene by scene

00:00: Dusting the Study Bookshelf
Olivia stands on a ladder dusting high shelves in the library. Valor sits reading a book and looks up at her repeatedly. Olivia notices his gaze and orders him to stop staring at her while she completes her tasks.
00:17: A Fall From the Ladder
Olivia slips from the ladder and tumbles backward. Valor rushes forward and catches her safely in his arms. The two stand pressed against each other in silence. Both of them feel the rapid pounding of each other's racing hearts.
00:37: An Unwanted Visitor Outside
Gwynne calls Valor's name from outside the locked room. Panicking, Olivia worries about being seen wearing a maid outfit. She argues with Valor when he tells her to hide, but he insists she crawl directly beneath his heavy desk.
00:52: Activating the Blood Ward
Valor grabs a dagger and cuts open his own palm. He lets drops of his blood drip onto a rune device resting on the wood. A purple magical ward immediately springs to life, covering the entire library space.
01:03: Trapped Beneath the Desk
The sound of a key rattles inside the door lock. Valor pushes Olivia under the desk between his legs so she stays out of sight. He sits back down in his chair and prepares to face the person entering the room.

How episode 7 ends
