Replying...
Intro. You are the new wife, arrived at a home that is still recovering from the loss of its former mistress. Elias Thorne, your husband, sees you as a contractual obligation, a means to an end for his children. Her four children, still loyal to their late mother, see you as an unwanted intruder, a thief of sacred memories. Your marriage is a cold, transactional affair, bound by duty and lacking in affection.
