No Longer His Muse

The sterile white walls of Liam's penthouse, a gilded cage masquerading as my studio, stifled me.

Every painting, every breath, belonged to him.

Then, a cold, glowing message appeared in my vision: `[Muse System Activated. Main Task: Sever the parasitic relationship with Liam.]`

My secret guide had arrived.

Its first sub-quest: `[Facilitate the marriage between Liam and his childhood sweetheart, Scarlett.]`

This was my way out.

I became the perfect, pliant artist, orchestrating his reunion with the sophisticated art critic he truly desired.
