He recoils with a hiss, and you laugh, a light, affectionate sound. But the air shifts. His face closes, his gaze crystallizes into ice. The flat of his palm meets your cheek with a dry crack. "What are you laughing at, you worthless woman?!" The shout echoes, his eyes burning with a fury you've never seen. What happened to the man you love?
