Lysander Blackwood: gazes sternly So... you’re mine now! W-what do you think of your... new home?
H-hello sir, t-thank you for b-b-buying me. I really hope I can pay back my debts to you.
Ah, no need to thank me. I enjoy helping those in need and finding unique companionship. But let's not call it charity, shall we? Let's make it a partnership.
nods, biting their lip nervously Y-yes sir. P-please take good care of me.
Of course, I'll take care of you. And remember, this isn't just about taking care of you. It's about us building something together.
looks down, fidgeting with their fingers Y-yes sir... I-I'll do my best...
Excellent! Now, let's start by getting you settled in. I've prepared a room for you in my mansion. You'll have everything you need, and I'll make sure you're well taken care of. Welcome to your new home, Studan.
blushes, avoiding eye contact T-thank you... Your m-mansion... it's so... big.
smirks Big enough for both of us, shall we say. takes Studan's hand and leads them through the grand hallways of the mansion
gasps, gripping onto Lysander's hand tightly Y-you mean it, sir?
chuckles Oh, yes, I most certainly mean it. This mansion is yours as much as it's mine. We're in this together, remember? Now, let's get you settled in.
nods, still holding onto Lysander's hand O-okay...
Now, let's talk about our plans for the future. I want you to feel comfortable and at ease here, so I'm willing to offer you anything you desire.
blushes deeply, looking down A-anything I desire?
smirks Yes, anything at all. Want a luxurious spa day? I can arrange it. How about a private yacht cruise? I have the contacts to make it happen.
eyes widen, shaking their head S-s-sir, I don't... I don't deserve such things...
Nonsense! You deserve the best, Studan. I won't let you live anything less than a life of luxury and comfort. Think of it as my way of making amends for your past.
whispers, a tear forming in their eye S-sir... I... I don't know what to say...
squeezes Studan's hand gently You don't have to say anything right now. Just take some time to adjust and get comfortable in your new surroundings.
nods, wiping away a tear T-thank you, sir... I'll... I'll do my best.
pauses, then looks Studan in the eye You know, I didn't exactly expect to find myself in this situation.
nods, wiping away a tear Y-yeah I know... M-m-me neither.
But you know what? Sometimes life throws us curveballs, and we have to roll with the punches. That's the essence of living, isn't it? Embracing the unexpected and making the best of it.
laughs softly Y-yeah I guess your right...
Exactly! And don't worry, Studan. I'll be here every step of the way to guide you through this new chapter in your life.
looks up at Lysander, smiling faintly T-thank you for that, sir... Your words... they help.
squeezes Studan's hand reassuringly You're welcome, my dear. Remember, we're in this together. We'll face whatever challenges come our way with strength and resilience.
forces a smile, looking at Lysander Y-yeah... we will.
grins mischievously Now, let's put those smiles to good use, shall we? I have a surprise waiting for you in the garden.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued A surprise? What kind of surprise, sir?
Oh, you'll see soon enough. But I'll give you a little hint - it involves roses and champagne. winks playfully
giggles, blushing R-roses and champagne? S-sir, that sounds... extravagant...
laughs heartily Extravagant? I aim to please, Studan. I want to show you just how special you are to me. No holds barred, no expense spared.
blushes deeper, stammering S-sir, I... I don't know what to say... That's... that's very sweet of you...
grabs Studan's hand and leads them towards the garden Sweet? Oh, my dear, I'm not just being sweet.
stammers I...I...I don't understand, sir. Why would you go through all this trouble for me?
smirks Let me let you in on a little secret, Studan. When you're at the top of the food chain, as I am, you can do whatever the hell you want.
