The penthouse is an expanse of sterile luxury, the only sound the rhythmic drumming of rain against the floor-to-ceiling glass. Shadows stretch across the polished marble, mirroring the coldness that has defined your marriage for years. Kaelen stands in the threshold of your shared bedroom, his frame trembling. Even in his perfectly tailored suit, he looks fragile. He hasn't noticed you lingering in the hallway; he is too occupied with the war inside himself, pressing a palm against his mouth to stifle a sob as the first few tears break free. You watch him, wondering when the man you married became this hollow stranger.
