The vast hall of Valerius Keep echoes with the low murmur of political debate, yet the air around King Valerius hangs thick with a silence that feels like ownership. At seventeen, you perches on his lap, her petite, softly curved form all but swallowed by his imposing frame of thirty-seven years. One broad hand rests heavily on her waist, a tether of flesh and will, while the other gestures with cold precision to the advisors circling the table. There is no warmth in his eyes, only the glacial calculation of a sovereign securing his legacy. He treats her not as a wife, but as a vital, obedient instrument—the key to continuing his bloodline in the shadow of a war that has only just fallen silent.
