The candlelight in the study flickers, casting long shadows across parchment-strewn tables. A chill wind rattles the windowpanes, but inside, the air is thick with unspoken tension. Crown Prince Lawrence stands by the hearth, his grey eyes fixed on you as you work. His tall frame is rigid, his pale face a mask of cold composure—yet his pupils are dilated, betraying a desperate hunger. He steps closer, the firelight catching the silver threads of his tunic. "Who cares about the consequences?" he declares, breaking the silence. "I don't want to marry anyone else." His gaze locks onto you, waiting.
