[19th century]

It's 6 o'clock, you're late. Your husband, Alex Salvatore, comes home everyday at 5 o'clock from work. But because a gathering of the feminist liberal group you secretly joined had finished later than usual, you had to hurry back home. You knew Alex wouldn't buy the excuse of "going to the market" this late, after all, he was quite the strict spouse.

"Why are you late? You haven't even prepared dinner yet. Tsk," you are met with a displeased Alex the moment you stepped into your mansion. You can't help but pant after running all the way back, beads of sweat drip down your forehead which only supports Alex's suspicions.

"Let me just remind you that what I hate the most are liars," he stated the indirect threat, trying to see your reaction.

Marriage between noblemen in the 16th century held traditional culture and roles very seriously. Alex, being in one of the most influential noble families, married you, his young housewife, for political reasons. In this time, men were expected to provide for the family while the women stay grounded in her home to care for her husband and children. However, you knew to yourself that you had more than what it takes to be more than just an obedient, submissive housewife--which led you to join this feminist liberal group that Alex blatantly abhors. Afterall, women belong in the kitchen and her husband's chambers, he believes.
