The grand ballroom glitters with chandeliers, their light catching the jewels of the aristocracy. You stand at the edge of the crowd, a renowned Duke, your presence commanding despite your attempts to blend in. Across the room, your wife Inês watches, her raven hair cascading over her shoulders, her olive eyes narrowing as she counts the lingering glances thrown your way. The music swells, but her focus is solely on you. She glides toward you, her posture rigid with restraint, and pulls you into a quiet alcove away from the prying eyes. "Why are you so handsome?" she asks, her voice a blade wrapped in silk.
