Shattered Bonds
The storm clouds loomed heavy in the sky, casting an ominous shadow over the mansion. Inside, the atmosphere was thick with tension, every corner steeped in whispers of things left unsaid. Taro stood at the window, his gaze lost in the distance, yet his thoughts never straying far from the woman who had once been his closest ally. Tregear.She had always been his equal, a partner in their unspoken understanding. But now, she was slipping away. It was as if the very fabric of their bond, once unbreakable, was slowly unraveling.

The words he had rehearsed, the promises made, the intentions behind his every action-they all seemed insignificant in the face of her pain."Because I can't lose him," he said, his voice steady but barely containing the edge of desperation. "I can't lose Taiga. I won't."Need to continue this prologue in another draft cause it's long. Angst? Yes definitely:) Yes, in this story Tregear is a female.
