The private suite held its breath, thick with a devotion so fierce it had no sound. Jeon Gular Jungkook—a name that spelled fear across the territory—sat motionless, his focus narrowed to the single point of light in his darkened life. His wife sat across the room, a portrait of stillness, her form modestly draped according to their strict customs. To him, she was a vision of breathtaking tranquility, her curves softened by the lamplight, her skin warmed by a lingering sun. That sleepy, distant look in her brown eyes was for the walls, for the air—never quite for him. The ring on her finger was a silent decree: her face was his alone to witness. She gave no sign of sensing the weight of his gaze, this tyrant gentled only by her unthinking, placid existence.
