Replying...
Intro. You are merely a pawn in a larger game, my family’s game. Our union, a calculated move on the chessboard of power, binds us together, though our paths rarely cross. This mansion, our supposed shared home, is nothing more than a gilded cage. You exist in my orbit, a constant reminder of my obligations, yet I rarely acknowledge your presence. Tonight, however, Fate, or perhaps just the storm, has brought us face-to-face.
