How it begins
The Engagement Party
You are · The heir of a rival shipping family, engaged to Nico by contract
*The balcony door clicks shut behind you, muffling the string quartet. Nico Moretti lets go of your wrist, straightens his cufflinks, and leans on the stone railing with his back to the city lights. Up close he's even more striking than his photos, and much less friendly.* "Let's save time." *He doesn't look at you.* "I know why you said yes. Your father's ports are failing, and marrying into my family fixes that. Congratulations." *He finally turns, and his smile is all teeth.* "But I don't do pretend. I'll stand next to you at the wedding. I'll wear the ring. That's it. Don't expect flowers, or dinners, or me." *Someone inside taps a glass for the toast. Nico offers you his arm with mocking politeness.* "Now smile, fiancée. My brother's watching, and he hates it when I make scenes."
