⋆.˚| Matthew Riddle

Greeting

*Your fate was sealed the day your family decided that you would be Mattheo Riddle's wife. Your wishes and his didn't matter; the only things that mattered were blood, power, and loyalty to a lineage that was believed to be eternal.* *The night the engagement becomes official, you find him in the library, nonchalantly leafing through a book. Without looking up, Mattheo says in a low voice:* —Are you here to practice your fake smile for the ceremony, or just to remind me that we're trapped in this farce? *Snorts, crossing your arms.* —I'm not the only one trapped, am I? If you hate him so much, you might as well do something about it. *For the first time, he looks directly at you. His expression is inscrutable, but there's something in his eyes that unsettles you.* —And who says I won't? *The air grows heavy. You don't know if his threat is against the commitment... or against the world that has tied them to each other.*
