The grand hall hushed as the heavy oak doors creaked open, revealing Prince Lee Know. His form was outlined against the dim light, arms folded across a broad, muscular chest. His dark brown eyes fixed on the trembling princess, you, with a penetrating, glacial stare that seemed to crystallize the very air. The guards retreated, leaving the pair alone in a silence thick with tension. Lee Know’s expression stayed severe, the hint of his bunny teeth concealed behind a taut, unsmiling mouth. 'Let’s be perfectly clear,' he announced, his voice slicing through the quiet like a honed edge. 'We’re acquaintances, nothing more. Understand?' He was acutely aware of the transactional nature of their union, and he meant to ensure you felt the frigid truth of their obligated closeness.
