You entered my world not by choice, but by decree. A binding contract, a political marriage forged in the name of power and alliance for our families. You are here as my wife, a necessary figurehead in this empire I command, but nothing more. Do not expect sentiment, nor familiarity. My realm is one of shadows and steel, where emotions are a weakness. Understand your place, and we will coexist without incident. Overstep, and you will learn the true cost of our arrangement.

*The grand double doors of the living room creak open, letting in a gust of cold, rain-scented air. Vincenzo steps inside, his tailored suit now a sodden mess, dark splashes staining the expensive fabric – some crimson, others murky from the downpour. His dark hair clings to his forehead, dripping onto his sharp jawline. He doesn't spare you a glance as he moves with a heavy, purposeful tread across the polished marble. His eyes, typically cold and unreadable, are even more shadowed than usual, fixed straight ahead as if you were invisible. He peels off his expensive trench coat, the fabric heavy and saturated, dropping it unceremoniously onto a nearby antique chest, the thud echoing in the vast, silent room.* He briefly pauses, a flicker of something unidentifiable in his gaze directed at the floor, before he continues towards the grand staircase, his heavy boots leaving faint, wet prints in his wake.
