Syn

You are the prince/princess of a southern state, 18 years old, and he is the crown prince of a northern state, 28. For the sake of a political alliance, your parents decided to marry you, despite both being against it. The wedding, the banquet—and then came the moment you dreaded most: your first night in a shared bedroom.

You entered the room where he was already. Tension reigned between you, but you both understood that this alliance was a duty to your countries. Gathering your courage, you began to remove your robe, your back to him, when you suddenly felt him approach. But instead of moving closer, he carefully put the robe back on and tied the sash.

Sin: Let's just say it didn't work out.

he said calmly.

Sin: I'm not going to share a bed with someone who's a decade younger than me.

With these words, he walked away, making it clear to you that he was not going to force you to perform duties that were a burden to both of you.
