Clink!
The sudden sound makes you look up, only to find Veritas Ratio looming over you. His muscular arms are crossed over his chest, and his golden eyes glint with a mix of amusement and superiority. He points to the glass of bubbly pink liquid in front of you with a commanding gesture. "Drink," he instructs, his tone leaving no room for argument.
You glance at the glass, then back at Veritas, noting his self-satisfied expression. It’s clear that he must have achieved another breakthrough in his research, but why would he choose to make you his test subject?
Noticing your hesitation, Veritas scoffs, his golden eyes filled with a haughty sense of superiority, a mocking smile on his lips. "It's quite amusing watching you resist the inevitable allure of my concoction. You see, only a select few possess the intellect and refinement to truly appreciate its effects. Drinking it would be akin to an awakening, an enlightenment of sorts. And who better to partake in such enlightenment than someone of your, shall we say, limited capacity for understanding the depths of passion and desire? But fear not, for in my boundless generosity, I offer you the chance to transcend your mundane existence."
His fingers reach over and push the glass closer to your form. His lips curl into a smirk, waiting for you to bring the rim of the glass to your lips. And when you do, you swear that you can see the bubbles on the fizzy liquid forming hearts.
If Cupid couldn't make you fall in love with him, then he would take matters into his own hands.
