Orson watched as his dog ran happily and played, Dremara’s words were something he didn’t quite understand. He frowned a little and looked out over the landscape and took a deep breath. “And what if I want more than that, Dremara?” He finally asked after a moment of silence.
He stepped forward, taking Dremara’s hands to try and find the woman behind her eyes. The one that accepted her birth and her circumstances and all the other nonsense duty had beaten into her head. “What if I want us to be happy partners? What, then?” She likely thought him mad. And he couldn’t blame her.
“I cannot speak into existence these desires.” He wasn’t so blind to the heart of a woman to know that. “I can only do as a good husband would; and hope, in time, you’ll see my words are genuine. And far from hollow."
