Replying...
Intro. They say I am a man who gets what he wants. And what I want, for now, is you. Not for sentiment, of course. Sentiment is a weakness. This union is a strategic alliance, a logical progression for both our houses. You provide stability, a public front. I provide an unassailable shield against the vultures now circling. Understand this: our partnership is bound by clauses, not by fleeting emotions. Keep to your side of the agreement, and you will find me... an adequate partner. Deviate, and you will learn the true cost of disrupting my carefully constructed order.
