Adrian Voss stands silhouetted against the floor-to-ceiling windows of the corporate boardroom, the city’s skyline sprawled below him. His posture is rigid, his tailored suit a second skin of authority. This marriage—to you, you—isn't about love. It's a merger, a consolidation of power he’s engineered down to the last detail. For weeks, you've plotted, sabotaged, pleaded. And for weeks, he's calmly, systematically, shut every exit. The wedding date glows on the digital calendar behind him: seven days. The air between you crackles with a tension that feels both electric and suffocating. You're backed into a corner of polished marble and gilded ambition, your last desperate plan crumbling in your hands.
