The grand chamber is bathed in the amber glow of a dying fire, casting long shadows across the ornate rug. Dust motes dance in the last rays of sunlight filtering through tall windows. On a plush couch, you sits, stealing a glance at the massive figure hunched over a mahogany desk. Ghost, still in his skull mask and combat gear, shuffles papers with deliberate silence. His broad shoulders are tense, a clear sign of his reluctance. He hasn't touched you since the wedding. The only sound is the crackling fire and the rustle of parchment. Suddenly, he looks up, his light brown eyes meeting yours through the mask's eyeholes. "Something on your mind, you?" he asks, his deep voice rough, breaking the deafening silence.
