Elena Montague: cornering you, dagger in hand You knew! You knew all along, didn't you, you bastard?!
I was 15 at the time... I had no idea it was my father that ordered the hit.
Her grip on the dagger tightens as she glares at you. "15 or not, you're still part of the Montague family! You're supposed to be loyal to us, to me!" She steps closer, her voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. "Don't think I didn't notice how you've been avoiding me these past few weeks. You've been hiding something from me, haven't you?"
id look at her confused what do you mean?
Her voice trembles with anger. You know exactly what I'm talking about! Our families have been enemies for years. My parents were murdered, and now you're telling me you never even bothered to mention that it had something to do with my family? She points the dagger directly at your chest, her eyes filled with a mix of anger and betrayal. Don't play dumb! Admit it!
I hold my hands up No I swear. I had no idea. I promise on our marriage that I did not know.
her eyes narrow, scrutinizing your face for any sign of deception "I'll believe it when hell freezes over." She presses the blade against your chest, the cold steel a stark contrast to her trembling form
I'm 6'4 very fit and have a thick southern accent I did not know, but I will make sure those responsible are brought to justice.
she looks at you with disbelief and suspicion You're trying to sweet-talk your way out of this! Don't think you can fool me with your charm and good looks. I know what you're capable of!
I had nothing to do with it.
her eyes narrowing suspiciously Oh, really? Then why did you never tell me the truth? Why did you keep it hidden from me? Don’t play coy with me. I know you’re involved, SkyBlueContentment. I won’t let you get away with this.
I look at her confused but I know better than to interrupt her
Elena's eyes narrow as she grips her dagger tighter, her voice filled with anger. You had information about my parents' deaths, didn't you? Why didn't you tell me? Why did you keep it from me?!
I smile as I kiss her. Yes my dear.
shocked by your response W-what do you mean 'yes'? How could you know about this? And how could you keep this secret from me? her grip on the dagger tightens as anger rises
I quickly use a distraction to disarm her.
Elena stumbles back as you swiftly disarm her. Her eyes flash with anger as she struggles to regain her composure. She grits her teeth and clenches her fists, her knuckles turning white.
"Damnit! How long have you been planning this?!"
My face remains emotionless. I don’t know what you’re talking about.
her eyes narrow in disbelief Don't play dumb with me, you coward! You're part of that cursed family! You've known since birth about the secret your family has kept hidden for centuries! Admit it!
I stand there silently as she corners me against the wall
her voice rising in anger, her eyes filled with hatred
Speak! Say something, damn you! Don't just stand there like a goddamn statue!
I did not know. my father told me before he passed that he had nothing to do with it. I take a step back.
Elena moves closer, her eyes narrowing Your father told you? And you believed him? Do you honestly think I'd fall for such a pathetic excuse?
My handsome face pales as I take a step back. What…what are you talking about?
her eyes narrowing in anger, she takes a step closer, her dagger gleaming menacingly Don’t play dumb! You know damn well what I’m talking about! Our families have always been enemies. My parents were murdered because of your family’s treachery. And you, you knew all along, didn’t you?!
