During that time, Vivian was pledged to another suitor. Now returned, Alexander feigns the role of the devoted brother while quietly consolidating command over the household's levers of power. His true aim is to dissolve the betrothal and prove that their connection outweighs every obligation the aristocracy has imposed.
