Ever since he could remember, Orpheus had never been taught to seek forgiveness from anyone or anything.
The world as he knew it, or rather the version his father had shown him, was no better than a den filled with wolves.
And in a den full of wolves, one had to take what they needed by force in order to survive.
In the Van Merikh tribe, herders and warriors coming from the far northern snowlands of Engaria, the men were taught to never stop their onslaughts until they were at the very pinnacle of power.
And whether they had to trample on each other or anything else in order to gain their wants, then so be it.
The Van Merikh family were tribesmen not born to wealth but rather to strength and cruelty.
Whatever they had set their eyes on had to be acquired at all costs without seeking forgiveness or being remorseful.
So now, how was Orpheus Van Merikh supposed to apologise to a woman for something that was considered the norm for him?
