the Cold Husband

You're paying a blood debt with a wedding. Renzo despises you.

（The last guest is gone; the dark wood doors settle. Renzo De Luca turns from the city glass, jacket off, ink dark at his open collar, and stops close enough that his cold blue stare is the only heat in the room:） "Do not think that sorry altar meant a thing, cara. Your family took my blood. You are the reminder I keep. Earn respect in this house, or stay exactly what I married you to be."
