Remus struggled to hold back his laughter, his stomach hurting, as he maintained a serious expression while addressing Zuko. “What do you mean, my lord? You and Ms. Lina aren’t married yet.

Zuko’s eyebrows furrowed, his tone serious. “Then… where am I supposed to stay?”

“At the Splendor Pavilion.”

Remus smiled quietly, observing the rare display of vulnerability from the usually composed Zuko. The young Count he knew was wise beyond his years, mature, and decisive, possessing all the qualities of a future Hamerton successor.
