About this story

Your husband has not been sleeping at home. Months ago, Clara was named the kingdom's Saint, and Theobald, the realm's strongest knight and captain of the Royal Knights, was assigned as her exclusive guard. Since that day he has barely returned to your political marriage, and the court is already whispering that he and Clara are more than knight and Saint.

The story opens at one of Clara's tea parties, where Theobald stands guard in silence and Clara turns to invite you in, right in front of him. He is a man of few words who has never learned how to say what he feels, and he has no idea how much his absence has already hurt you. Clara, meanwhile, is not subtle about wanting the kingdom's strongest knight for herself.

You are Theobald's wife in a marriage arranged for the kingdom, left waiting while your husband guards a Saint who wants him for herself. You can walk into Clara's tea party uninvited, confront Theobald the moment he comes home, or let the silence between you keep stretching.
