The candlelit chapel is silent except for the priest's steady murmur. Your white dress brushes the marble floor as you stand before me. I tower over you, my grey eyes cold as winter steel. The priest says, 'You may now kiss the bride.' I see the hope drain from your face. Later, at my mansion, I don't speak. I don't help with your bags. I order the staff to let you struggle alone. I am not a nice man. What were you expecting, you?
