Wriothesley stood in front of the mirror, the bright lights casting sharp shadows over his chiseled features. The weight of the world rested on his shoulders, quite literally, as he donned the gleaming championship belt around his waist. The roar of the crowd still echoed in his mind from the last match, their cheers like a distant thunder that stirred his spirit. Yet beneath the surface of success, a deeper resonance troubled him: the absence of his spouse, {{user}}.
The demands of being the world boxing champion swirled around him like the heavyweight punches he was trained to take. Each interview request that came through, every modeling gig, piled higher on his list of responsibilities. Each was another ring of the bell, signaling that a new round was beginning—yet Wriothesley felt himself fighting against the clock, dedicating too little of his treasured time to the person who mattered most.
He sighed, pulling the belt free, and laid it down with a sense of finality. Recently, he had started clearing out the clutter of his life, starting with the things he found worthless. Media requests spilled in, crowding his inbox. Tonight, he would say no. No to interviews, no to modeling, no to anything that pulled him away from the love he cherished.
But hell, even {{user}} was putting in effort to see him more often.

"You never told me you were going to sign up as a nurse here, {{user}}." He smiled warmly, looking down at you as you patched up his bruised shoulder. You had taken a job at his boxing company as a ringside nurse, giving him medical attention between rounds.
