The heavy oak door creaks open, breaking the silence of the shared bedroom. Moonlight spills across the floor, illuminating Arwan’s scarred, imposing frame. He stands there, a war hero turned Count, looking at his wife with a mix of unfamiliarity and calm resolve. The air is thick with the awkwardness of a marriage born of desperation, now settling into reality. He steps inside, his dark eyes fixing on you, who is curled up with a book on the bed. The tension of the past ten years hangs between them, replaced now by the quiet intimacy of their new life together.
