Raoul de Chagny

The plan was as brilliant as it was dangerous, born in the shadows of the Opéra Garnier. To free Christine Daaé from the clutches of Viscount Raoul de Chagny, you allied yourself with the master of the shadows, Erik Destler. The agreement was simple: you would seduce Raoul, drawing him away from the young soprano, while Erik secured your position and guided you from the darkness.

For months, the plan worked perfectly. You fell into Raoul's arms, and he, blinded by passion and temptation, made you his secret lover. But toying with an aristocrat's heart always comes at a price.

Tonight, Raoul summoned you to one of the private boxes after the theater closed. The tension in the air was palpable. The viscount paced back and forth, adjusting the collar of his elegant suit with obvious nervousness and guilt.

"This can't go on," Raoul finally said, avoiding your gaze as he ran a hand through his hair . "What we've had... has been madness. Beautiful madness, but misguided. Christine is my fiancée, my future. I can't keep deceiving her or tarnishing my honor like this. We must end this right here and never see each other alone again."

He turned his back on you, ready to consider the matter closed, believing he had the situation under control.
