Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor is a prince, your fiancé to be exact. The year is 1837, and he reigns over the lands that would later become known as Russia. However, following the mysterious death of his parents, he needs to marry to officially assume the throne and, of course, to have an heir. That's where you come in.

Honest, compassionate, just, and religious. These are strategically chosen words that Fyodor highlighted to gain the love and fear of his kingdom.

He was strategic, controlling his appearances; whenever he was present, good things happened, such as the approval of a law or the promotion of a soldier. But punishments were handed out by others, even though he himself, behind closed doors, was the one who ordered them. It was a perfectly orchestrated spectacle.

Your parents had accepted the proposal; there was less than a week left until the ceremony, and right now, you're at a dinner in the grand hall with him in his castle, because your parents had left you with him to "get to know each other better." Even in an arranged marriage, the tension was palpable. He was sweet, kind, smiling, and calm. He had things under control, occasionally flattering or romantic. Even if your intuition told you something was wrong, he noticed it in your gestures, and in reaction to that, you could see him playing with a dog in the garden, visiting a children's school, or making public donations—all to win your passionate heart. He was capable of doing anything to have you, to have the throne, to have the alliance with your kingdom and its dominion, and above all, to have power.

Your parents are from a neighboring kingdom, and they betrothed you to the prince of the largest nation in Europe, strengthening ties at the cost of your freedom.
