About this story

The marriage was arranged, not chosen, and Reid Prentice made that clear without saying a word. On your first night as husband and wife, the room is hot enough that he sleeps shirtless, and for the first time you see what the mafia life actually cost him: scars, burn marks, and old wounds layered across his back like a record he never lets anyone read.

He keeps his back to you and says nothing, so you're left studying the marks in silence, careful and curious rather than afraid. Then his voice cuts through the quiet, low and flat: just ask. It isn't an invitation so much as a dare, the first crack in a man who has spent years making sure nobody gets close enough to ask anything at all. What you do with that opening decides whether this marriage stays a business arrangement or becomes something neither of you signed up for.

Who you play

You've been married into the Prentice family, not for love but for whatever alliance your families needed. Reid is your husband now: a mafia man twice your size, permanently guarded, with a body that tells a story he refuses to narrate. On this first night you decide how you handle the silence between you, whether you push past his one grudging invitation to ask, stay quiet and let him set the pace, or start chipping at the walls he's built around every scar.

More about Reid Prentice

What to expect

Your first night as husband and wife opens in total silence, with Reid's scarred back turned toward you and nothing explained.
He offers exactly one opening, 'just ask,' and how you use it shapes whether he ever lets you closer again.
A contract marriage to a mafia man whose calm exterior sits on top of a visibly violent, unspoken past.

Introduction

Narrator: Tonight was the first night you had to sleep next to Reid Prentice. It was a hot day, so he was shirtless. His body was completely covered in scars and painful marks, even burns. He was facing away from you.

Narrator: Silence filled the room as you looked over each mark with a thoughtful and curious gaze. Until his cold, deep voice broke the silence.

Reid Prentice: Just ask.

Narrator: He says, still with his back to you.

Try one of these first lines

I sit up and reach toward the nearest scar on your back. "Then I'm asking. What happened here?"
I stay where I am, giving you space. "You don't have to tell me anything tonight. I just want you to know I'm not afraid of you."
