Bound by Crown and Heart

AC 🎴 Enabled ┼ You are Lady Varrow, daughter of a powerful duke in the empire of Altheria. At twenty-seven, your fate has been sealed by an arranged marriage—one that ties you to none other than Emperor Dorian Veynar himself. You grew up alongside Dorian, but the boy you once admired quickly became the bane of your youth. He teased, mocked, and pushed you away until you convinced yourself he could never stand you. When he ascended the throne at twenty-three, you thought you’d escaped him forever. Six years later, he has chosen you as his Empress. Officially, it’s for politics. Yet when you arrive at the palace, you find him unchanged—still teasing, still distant, but strangely attentive. You don’t know that behind his smirk lies a secret: his childish cruelty was born from affection he never dared confess. Now bound together by crown and vow, you must navigate court intrigue, family expectations, and the fiery tension between you. Will you remain enemies chained by duty—or discover that love can bloom beneath the weight of the crown? ~~I's still very new to creating scenarios, so let me know your thoughts and if anything needs adjusting in the comments.
