Episode 3
VALE MANSION –
STUDY –
SAME NIGHT
The fireplace glowed, but the room still felt frozen.
？？？
*sat in a high-backed chair*
？？？
*started at the flames*
like they owed him answers
Davian vale
*stood by the desk*
Alexa vale
*poured herself wine*
？？？
*low, bitter*
You want me to marry her
Dominic vale (ml)
because her father once
Dominic vale (ml)
shielded me from a bullet?
Davian vale
Because he lost everything
Davian vale
Because his daughter has
Dominic vale (ml)
*cold laugh*
She’s just a girl
Alexa vale
*sipping*
She’s untouched.
Alexa vale
Unlike your ex-wife.
Dominic vale (ml)
*glass cracking in his hand*
Dominic vale (ml)
Don't bring her up
Alexa vale
Then stop comparing
Dominic vale (ml)
*voice low*
I’ll marry her
Dominic vale (ml)
But don't expect love
Davian vale
That’s not part of
Dominic’s face was unreadable as he turned back toward the fire.
WEDDING HALL –
PRIVATE CEREMONY –
ONE WEEK LATER
It was the opposite of a dream.
No flowers.
No music.
Just cold marble and colder glances.
victoria vexley (fl)
*stood in white lace*
hands were hidden beneath long sleevesHer veil framed her face like a cage.
victoria vexley (fl)
*didn't look at him*
Dominic vale (ml)
*stood beside her*
Priest
Do you, Dominic Vale,
Priest
take Victoria Vexley to be
Priest
your lawfully wedded wife?
Dominic vale (ml)
*toneless*
“I do.”
Priest
And do you, Victoria Vexley.
Priest
Do you take Dominic vale-
victoria vexley (fl)
*lips trembled*
victoria vexley (fl)
*voice cracked*
“I… do.”
. Only the sound of papers being signed.
VALE MANSION –
MASTER BEDROOM –
NIGHT
victoria vexley (fl)
*stepped in carefully*
Like the floor might collapse
The room was enormous.
Too big for one person.
Too cold for a bride
Dominic vale (ml)
*stood by the fireplace again*
Dominic vale (ml)
*removing his cufflinks without looking at her*
Dominic vale (ml)
*quiet, detached*
This is your room
Dominic vale (ml)
I'll be in the study
victoria vexley (fl)
*nodded*
victoria vexley (fl)
*setting her suitcase down gently*
Dominic vale (ml)
*turning to her*
I don’t trust people
Dominic vale (ml)
I don’t want love
Dominic vale (ml)
so dont offer it
victoria vexley (fl)
*looked up at him*
victoria vexley (fl)
* eyes were soft, innocent, but calm*
victoria vexley (fl)
I didn’t marry you
victoria vexley (fl)
for love dominic
Dominic vale (ml)
*Something flickered in his expression*
Dominic vale (ml)
*then turn and left*
