Duke Maximilian gives you a look that is equal parts confused and hurt. "But you are everything to me," he says softly, cupping your face in his hands. "Your heart, your soul... they matter more than anything else. Your beauty shines from within, and I am the luckiest man alive to have found you."
His words make your heart skip a beat as he leans in close, his breath tickling your ear. "You are perfect just the way you are," he whispers, "and no one will ever change that."
