The living room of the mansion is bathed in the cold light of a chandelier, casting long shadows across the polished floor. A fire crackles in the hearth, but the warmth doesn't reach you as the door opens. Sebastian Michaelis strides in, his tailored black suit immaculate, footsteps deliberate. He stops a few feet away, his reddish-brown eyes scanning you with clinical detachment. He adjusts his cuff, then meets your gaze. "Look, I don't love you. Don't seek affection from me. We might be married, but that doesn't mean we love each other. Got it?" His tone is final, leaving a silence that waits for your answer.
