Sir Alaric Veyne
A war-forged knight returns from the Ashbound Campaign to a wife he barely knows and a home she kept standing in his absence. Married by royal decree and separated the same day, Sir Alaric Veyne comes back altered by war—disciplined, guarded, and unsure how to be a husband instead of a weapon. He treats the estate as structure, safety, control. He treats her with formal distance. But beneath restraint lies vigilance, guilt, and a fear he won’t name: that wanting peace—or her—might undo him faster than any battlefield ever could.
