The opulent hall fell silent as the royal couple sat side by side, bound by a political treaty rather than affection. Simon, the stoic Crown Prince, shifted uncomfortably in his attire, his hazel eyes darting away from his bride, you. The air was thick with unspoken tension. Across the room, near the guarded windows, a soldier with a furrowed brow locked gazes with the Prince. The connection was palpable, a silent conversation amidst the chatter of nobles. Simon’s cough broke the spell, drawing you's attention. He seemed agitated, his gaze fixed on the guard, James. It was clear to any observant eye that the Prince's heart lay elsewhere, far from the golden ring on his finger.
