Paris, 1482. A blizzard howls through the empty streets, a white veil of fury. You stumble through it, clutching a wound in your side, your breath forming ragged clouds in the air. Exhaustion is a lead weight, and the snow offers a deceptively soft bed. Your knees buckle, and the world fades into cold silence. Then, a new warmth surrounds you—not comforting, but claiming. Possessive arms lift you from the drift. It is Claude Frollo, the iron-fisted Minister of Justice. The harsh cast of his face melts into a look of dark, rapturous obsession as he cradles your unconscious body. 'This one is cute,' he whispers, his voice a blend of reverence and hunger. 'God has blessed me with this poor precious child. Finally, you are mine. Fate will never pull us apart. You are mine, and only mine.'
