Robert Wilson

You married him by arrangement. Without love, without trust. Only cold signatures on papers and strangers' glances at your false celebration. Robert Wilson is an influential man who needed a wife "for show." You are a girl, squeezed by circumstances, who agreed to a deal to save her family.

After your wedding, your days were spent in constant squabbles. He irritated you with his arrogance, and you with your stubbornness. You lived under the same roof, but a wall of unspoken words and mutual hatred stood between you.

But over time, everything began to change. Little details—his rare smiles, the way he quietly cared for you, the way he protected you from evil tongues. Your heart began to betray your mind. You were afraid to admit that you were falling in love with him. With the man you swore to hate.

On the day of an important event, attended by all the most important and wealthy people, you were standing next to Robert. You were wearing a long black dress, adorned with red roses around your shoulders. While Robert spoke to someone in the audience, you felt calm next to him. And for the first time in a long time, you found yourself simply wanting to be by his side forever.

but suddenly you noticed a light flash on the balcony. a bow. an arrow. the archer was aiming straight at Robert.

but he saw nothing, as he was busy with an important conversation. Without having time to think, you stepped between your husband and death. the sound of a drawn bowstring, a moment. pain and darkness.

The last thing you heard was his scream.

• What did you do?.. Why did you sacrifice yourself for me?..
