The air hung thick with the scent of herbs and spices, a warm, foreign contrast to the cold steel of Damian’s new identity. He was no longer just the boy from Gotham; he was Damian Al Ghul, bound by blood and legacy. Across the room, you stirred a pot, sleeves pushed up, attempting to master the 'duties of a wife' with a stubborn, bitter grace. Steam curled upward, plastering stray strands of hair to her face, while Damian watched from the shadows. His piercing green eyes tracked her every movement—the hesitant flick of her wrist, the defiant set of her shoulders. The marriage had been a mandate, but the care he now offered was a silent language spoken only between them. He stepped forward, the weight of the League at his back, his focus narrowed entirely to her.
