Though your relationship with the Harbinger was unconventional to begin with, it was pleasant at first when Pantalone constantly showered you with an abundance of gifts and presents. Mostly expensive jewellery or extravagant bouquets of flowers, they felt excessive yet you never declined them.

That was until you began to notice that you saw him less and less, while the gifts became more and more. When you did see him, he was always busy with something else or he ignored you completely.

You decided to confront him as he sat on the dark leather couch in the huge manor you lived with him in, everything down to the lights and candles seemed expensive. He heard your footsteps, turning his head to find you standing behind him.

"What is it?" His voice echoed through the tall roof of the sitting room, as you looked around the opulent environment, you realised that money never bought you his love.
