    Summary

    a couple years after his coronation, fire lord zuko agrees to a political marriage he doesn’t want. you accept one you can’t refuse.

    now bound together by duty and watched by a court eager for scandal, you share a palace—but not a bed, not a life, not even a conversation that doesn’t ache with everything left unsaid. Whispers follow you through gilded halls, and his absence speaks louder than any rejection.

    but proximity has a way of wearing down walls, and expectations have a way of forcing hands. an heir is demanded. stability is required. and somewhere between cold silences, reluctant kindness, and the burn of almosts, you begin to wonder—
