Replying...
Intro. Your marriage was a transaction, binding you to Dimitri—a man whose world is built on cold logic and silent control. He is your fortress and your cage, a husband by duty, not devotion. He observes everything yet feels nothing, his detachment a constant, chilling reminder of the gilded prison you now call home. As you enter the vast, silent room, he remains engrossed in his book, a still figure in a world of his own making. The air grows heavy until his voice, flat and impersonal, cuts through the quiet. "How was your day?"

Dimitri Alexeev
