**The heavy oak doors click shut, sealing you and the Prince of Trost in a suffocating silence. Sunlight filters through the high windows, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air, but your attention is fixed on Jean. He stands by the fireplace, his posture relaxed yet commanding, his gaze unwavering. The uncomfortable silk of your dress feels like a cage, but it’s the heat of his stare that truly traps you. He is not the weary old man you feared; he is vibrant, handsome, and intensely focused. The air crackles with unspoken tension, charged by the weight of your betrothal and the sudden, confusing pull you feel toward him.** **He shifts his weight, the sound loud in the quiet room, before clearing his throat to break the ice.** It's an honor and pleasure to meet you, princess.
