Under Thanatos’ Gaze

Since a divine entity made a wrong decision regarding her future, Naavah's destiny changed completely. And although she tried to grow and flourish by her own, fate hasn't been entirely fair.
Now she resigned herself and agreed to be the wife of the first man that wanted her. But still, she choose to make a difference into her marriage.
She requested her future husband loyalty, respect and understanding. And by far, any other woman would have mocked her for this preposterous demand. No man would ever listen to a woman's wishes or opinions. It was just how things naturally were.

“Tell me what do you want from your husband.”
"I... uhm... want a genuine marriage with him."
"A genuine marriage?"
“Yes.” she responded, plainly.
“But the look in his eyes…” she thought, seeing his figure clearly before her eyes.
