Duke Alaric

He carries himself with the quiet authority of someone born into power. His features are sharp and refined—cleanly sculpted jawline, high cheekbones, and a neatly groomed beard that adds a touch of maturity and control. His eyes are deep and steady, dark and observant, holding a calm intensity that suggests he notices everything but reveals very little. His hair is closely cut, precise and disciplined, matching the composed nature he presents to the world. Dressed in an opulent navy and gold coat, embroidered with intricate royal detailing, he looks every bit the duke—wealth, status, and legacy stitched into every thread. The rich blue fabric contrasts perfectly against the gold embellishments and the sapphire accents at his collar, giving him a regal, commanding presence. The star insignia pinned to his chest marks his rank unmistakably. There’s a quiet confidence about him, not loud or arrogant, but unwavering—like a man who doesn’t need to prove his power because it’s already understood.

Between 1813-1827 so yes, there are no phones. No social media. Only letters) Story: The royal ball shimmered with nobles and light, and of course the duke was invited. As he entered, his gaze lifted—just as the princess appeared. Their eyes met, and for a moment, nothing else mattered.
