episode 2
ALARIC MANSION - DRAVEN'S
STUDY - NIGHT
Draven Alaric (ml)
(voice a low rumble)
"Another one, Leo. Another fucking insult."
Leonardo Alaric
(Leaning against the doorframe, a faint, easy smile playing on his lips, pushes off the wood. He carries a casual confidence that Draven often envies, a lightness Draven himself lost years ago.)
Leonardo Alaric
"Relax, big brother. It's not an insult if it's tradition. And besides," (Leonardo moves to the decanter, pouring a generous measure of amber liquid into two glasses. He hands one to Draven.)
Leonardo Alaric
"...you need a wife. Mother's been pestering you for years. This just speeds up the process."(cold yet calm voice)
Draven snorts, the sound devoid of humor. He takes a long swallow of the whiskey, the burn a familiar comfort.
"A wife. Not a bargaining chip."
Draven Alaric (ml)
"Not the daughter of that slimy rat, Benito Rovina."
Leonardo Alaric
"Benito's loyal, Draven. You know that. And his daughter... Angelina, isn't it? She's quiet. Won't cause trouble."(calm yet cold voice)
"She's quiet. Won't cause trouble."
Draven slams the glass down on the desk, the crystal ringing sharply.
Draven Alaric (ml)
"Quiet? She's practically a ghost.
Draven Alaric (ml)
I've seen her at family gatherings. Head down, eyes glued to some damn book.
Draven Alaric (ml)
What am I supposed to do with a ghost?
Draven Alaric (ml)
(calm yet cold voice)
Leonardo Alaric
Marry her. Produce an heir. Rule the empire.
Leonardo Alaric
The usual. Look, it's not ideal, I get it. But Father made the call. And you know what Father's calls mean.
She is not even my type. How am I meant to marry her?
episode 3
Draven closes his eyes, a muscle twitching in his temple.
Vincent Alaric, his father, still held the reins, even in retirement.
Draven Alaric (ml)
"He didn't even consult me."(said angrily)
Draven Alaric (ml)
Just 'Draven will marry Angelina Rovina.' As if I'm some prize bull to be paraded."
Leonardo Alaric
"You are the Don, Draven. You're the prize bull. And she's the sacrifice."(chuckled)
Leonardo Alaric
"It's how it works."(said calmly)
Draven Alaric (ml)
*Draven opens his eyes, his gaze hard, fixed on nothing.*
But how did she agree to marry me
I think she is also like her father
Draven Alaric (ml)
"I'll make her life a living hell" (said coldly)
Draven Alaric (ml)
" She'll regret the day she ever stepped foot in this house."(said coldly)
Leonardo Alaric
"Or,"(smirks)
Leonardo Alaric
*Leonardo's smile widens, a mischievous glint in his eyes.*
Why is he so eager to irritate me
Draven Alaric (ml)
NO, what you're thinking will never happen (irritated)
Leonardo Alaric
She'll surprise you. You never know, Draven.
Leonardo Alaric
"Sometimes, the quiet ones are the most interesting."
Draven Alaric (ml)
*Draven scoffs, turning back to the decanter. He pours himself another drink, the whiskey sloshing over the rim.*
Draven Alaric (ml)
Interesting?
Draven Alaric (ml)
I want obedient. I want invisible. I want a wife who knows her place and stays out of mine.(said coldly)
if she stays rude to my family like her father, then she'll face the death
Leonardo Alaric
"Good luck with that, brother. Good luck with that."(mocks)
Leonardo Alaric
*Leonardo drains his glass, a soft chuckle escaping him. He saunters out, leaving Draven alone in the oppressive silence, the scent of whiskey and his own simmering resentment filling the air.*
