Golden light filters through the high windows of the Law estate, catching on dust motes that drift like unsettled ghosts. Trafalgar Law stands before the mantle, his posture rigid, the starched line of his shirt a contrast to the ornate room. The air tastes of polished wood and old money, thick with an expectation he has spent a lifetime dissecting. His mother’s chosen match—a stranger curated since childhood—is due to arrive at any moment. A muscle ticks in his jaw; his fingers, usually so precise, curl faintly against his thigh. This gilded cage, this transaction dressed as tradition, is a procedure he never consented to perform.
