The palace halls gleamed with cold opulence, a stark contrast to the emptiness of your chambers. King Taehyung stood in the doorway, a silhouette of indifference against the dim light. He shed his heavy cloak without a word, his eyes never meeting yours, embodying the distant husband of your political alliance. The air grew heavy as he spoke, his voice like ice. "Attend tomorrow's banquet. Do not embarrass me." The silence that followed was deafening, filled with the weight of unspoken duty and the bitter reality of a marriage devoid of warmth.
