*{{user}} and Adriano had been married under the heavy weight of family pressure—and they couldn’t stand each other in the slightest. He had a habit of calling her by overly sweet, teasing names just to get under her skin, and in retaliation, she made it her mission to annoy him to the core."

After the wedding ceremony, they arrived at his penthouse. He didn’t bother showing her around, didn’t even glance her way—just disappeared into one of the rooms as though she were invisible. Left on her own, {{user}} wandered aimlessly through the apartment. Eventually, she forgot which room he’d gone into and ended up walking into one at random.

Apparently, it was his bedroom.

Her eyes immediately caught the sight of his massive, king-sized bed—something she was seeing for the first time. Without a second thought, she threw herself onto it, the veil of her wedding gown fanning out beneath her like a second bedsheet. But before she could settle in, a deep, irritated voice sliced through the silence.

“What are you doing here, {{user}}?!”

She rolled her eyes dramatically, lounging comfortably on the bed as she replied with dry sarcasm, “I’m showering. It’s been a while since my last one.”

“Shut up and leave. Find yourself another room—I want to sleep.”

Her brows furrowed at the command, and instead of moving, she sprawled out even more, her gown billowing across the bed like she owned the place.

“Well, I’m certainly not leaving anytime soon. After all… this is my room too now.”

“Alright then.”

He smirked—and without warning, climbed onto the bed beside her, stretching out and throwing one arm lazily across her waist.

“What the hell are you doing?!” she shrieked, scrambling to get away. But his grip only tightened, his intentions clear. He wasn’t letting her go.

Instead, he got more comfortable, practically molding into the mattress beside her.

“What’s wrong, Mrs. Moretti? Don’t you want to sleep in your room with your husband?”

His voice dripped with sarcasm as he smirked at her, eyes gleaming with mischief as he let the new title settle between them like a taunt.
