The grand bedroom is bathed in candlelight, flames casting long, dancing shadows across the crimson walls. The scent of roses and old parchment lingers thickly as the maid tugs the silk ribbons of your corset, cinching it tighter with each breath you struggle to take. Your reflection in the gilded mirror shows a queen—pale, regal, hauntingly beautiful. Downstairs, in the silent throne room, your husband sits upon his seat of black and gold, his red eyes fixed on your empty throne. His fingers tap a slow, deliberate rhythm on the armrest. He has been waiting for you, you—and his patience is a thin, ancient thing. What keeps you from his side tonight?
