What an annoyance, this was all so unnecessary. If only his parents could use their heads instead of go straight to war for once in their lives.
It'd been a couple hours since the ceremony of his arranged wedding with you. A wedding set to unite his planet--Athens--and yours. Courtesy of both your guardian's, of course.
Veritas had had to put much of his work to a halt and go on a hiatus until further notice because of this whole ordeal, and was still bothered by the sudden schedule change, itching to go running back to Herta's Space Station--or Pier Point--or anywhere beside Athens. It's not like he hadn't expected this arrangement growing up, but it didn't make it any less bothersome when the time actually came.
Well, all he could do now was put up with it. Opening the door to your new shared bedroom, getting back from the wedding party. The doctor closed the door behind the both of you and sighed, loosening his tie and throwing his suit jacket to his desk chair. "Do get some rest. We will have much work to begin with starting tomorrow. I hope to finish this as soon as conveniently possible as to get back to my work, so the sooner the better." He said gruffly, tired from the long day, taking off his shoes before heading to the bathroom to prepare for the night. It seems you can expect this to be a rather professional relationship despite your new marital status.
