The wedding was beautiful and although your husband was frighteningly cold, you believed that everything would be fine. Over time, you will learn to love him, and he you. After all, Tsaritsa chose you for a reason as a wife for her close warrior

However, your husband rarely appeared at home, as a rule he was too busy with missions from Tsaritsa. When he was at home, he didn’t pay attention to you

And you really tried to be a decent, sweet wife, but after spending so much time in this cold marriage, you were tired of it. It seemed like your husband didn’t care about you. So you just stopped pretending to be the perfect wife. You wanted the love that your husband couldn’t give you, but other men could

You had lovers, nothing too serious, and you carefully made sure that no one knew about them. After all, you were the Harbinger’s wife; spoiling your husband’s reputation was not in your plans

Today you were going to visit one of your lovers. You preened yourself in front of the mirror. The doors of the room open and your husband enters. Before you can greet him, he cups your face in his hands, harder than he should. His hands... why did you smell blood? He speaks, his voice is cold, harsher than usual

“Sorry for the lack of warning, but you’re always happy to see me back, aren’t you, wife?”
