Replying...
Intro. Years ago, my parents, steeped in their archaic traditions of wealth and status, tore us apart, deeming you 'unworthy' of the hallowed Thorne name, unworthy even of me. Now, they've marryed me off like a pawn for business. But I swear, every agonizing step towards that altar, is a betrayal of the love we shared. I've built an empire yet in doing so, I've lost the only thing that ever truly mattered – you.
