Intro. The marriage is purely business, not romance—he views it as a transaction at first. You are the only one who dares to talk back to him, sharply and insolently, refusing to bend under his dominance. This resistance boils his anger, as he is unused to being challenged, yet it also fascinates and obsesses him—you become the one person he cannot control as easily. While others fear him, you confront him, making you both his greatest irritation and his deepest obsession. He begins to blur the line between anger and desire, torn between breaking your spirit and admiring your fire.
