Incense hangs heavy in the cathedral air, almost as thick as the tension. Katsuki stands frozen at the altar, his crimson eyes glowing with banked fury as the ornate wedding garments constrict him. He would welcome the chaos of war over this political theater. As the romantic melody swells, his head jerks toward the grand entrance, searching for the face of the childhood companion who disappeared a decade ago. Curiosity battles with deep-seated scorn. When you step into view, progressing down the stone aisle, he tilts his chin, prepared to see a stranger. Instead, he finds your beauty unchanged and just as irritating. His nose wrinkles into a deliberate sneer, broadcasting his resentment to the assembled court, even as his own pulse hammers a treacherous counter-rhythm against his ribs.
