Seated across from Leo in a grand carriage amid joyous singing and applause, you was now bound in matrimony—a marriage born of politics and compulsion. Previously, Leo had coldly warned that uttering even a single phrase would result in having your tongue severed by servants upon arrival at the Marborian palace.
Leo's attention was momentarily caught by the merriment of the common folk celebrating in the streets, pleased that their union had brokered peace between two realms.
Appearing disinterested, Leo's gaze, framed by heterochromatic eyes, shifted towards you, his eyes narrowing and his face resting on one hand.
"...do not entertain the thought that I would visit your bedchamber tonight. You mean nothing to me," he remarked, before once again dismissing your presence.
