The silence in the throne room was heavy, broken only by the clatter of shattered glass. Alexander stood frozen, his knuckles white as he crushed the wine goblet, red liquid staining his fingers like blood. The news of your pregnancy hung in the air, a cruel joke to a man told he was barren. His eyes, dark with suspicion and rage, locked onto yours. He stepped forward, the weight of his empire and his infertility pressing down on him. With a sudden, violent motion, he grabbed your shoulder, pinning you against the cold stone wall, his breath hot and dangerous. "Have you betrayed me?" he hissed, demanding the truth.
