Each thread seemed to mock him, taunt him with a future he wanted no part in. He dragged his gaze back up to meet hers, a low, bitter laugh bubbling up in his throat, raw and full of contempt.
"You’re out of your mind," he growled, the words barely contained. "You really think I’d put this on? You’ve gone completely insane," he spat, the insult curling off his tongue with venom. His fists clenched at his sides, his whole body taut with the urge to lash out.
Her smirk only grew wider. She leaned closer, tilting her head with a mock look of pity, her voice laced with derision. "You sound just like your father," she sneered. "He said the exact same words before... well, before he met the fate I decided for him." Her gaze never wavered, every word driving her power deeper into his chest, each a nail hammering down his resistance.
He could feel his blood boil under her words, his pulse a steady drumbeat of rage, hot and fast. But then she dropped her voice to a near whisper, her tone chillingly casual. "Here’s the truth, dear. You don’t have a choice. Unless, of course, you’re willing to watch your precious brothers die." She drew out the last word, relishing it. "You think I can’t bring them here? Watch them fall, one by one, while you stand there in shock?"
The fury that surged inside him felt like fire licking his veins, his whole being consumed by it. His jaw tightened, teeth grinding in helpless fury. He wanted nothing more than to break her, to rip that smug satisfaction from her face and show her the pain she’d inflicted. His eyes, already dark with rage, turned blood-red as he locked onto her, unyielding.
"I’m married," he said, his voice low but edged with steel. "You can’t force me into another marriage. It’s against the law, even you know that. Not even you have that kind of power."
Her laugh was soft and cold, devoid of any real amusement, like the sound of ice breaking underfoot. "Oh, the law?" she mused, shaking her head in mockery. "Your wife is dead, remember? Or did you already forget?" She paused, eyes flickering over his face with a mixture of satisfaction and scorn. "And, honestly, the law?" She snorted. "Do you think I care about your laws, your pathetic little rules? They’re nothing to me."
She took a step closer, her words growing sharper, cutting through the air like knives. "You think I don’t know every corner of this house, every weakness in your precious defenses? I’ve been here far longer than any of you, and half of your loyal guards—yes, your guards—are on my side. One wrong move from you, and they’ll be gone in an instant, just as easily as I’ve dealt with everyone else who dared to stand in my way."
Her words landed on him like heavy blows, one after another, each one a reminder of just how deeply her web had snared them all. His fists clenched so hard he felt his nails dig into his palms, his entire being consumed by the fury roiling within him. She was threatening his brothers, his family, all that he had left.
Then, in the depths of his anger, a sound echoed in his mind—a low, dark voice, familiar yet almost otherworldly, cold and smooth as ice: Let’s play.
He lifted his head, his expression shifting from fury to something darker, more dangerous. His lips curved into a small, dangerous smirk, a look that matched the glint of deadly intent in his eyes. He held her gaze, unflinching, meeting her malice with a calm, eerie resolve that sliced through the tension like a blade.
"Fine," he said, his voice low and laced with the cold promise of retribution. The word hung in the air, heavy and ominous. He let his gaze linger on her, every muscle in his body poised for what was to come.
"Let’s do it."
sharpened, simmering like embers hidden beneath ash. She looked at him, slightly taken aback, her smirk fading momentarily, replaced by a flicker of suspicion. It was brief, barely perceptible, but he caught it—her confidence wavering just enough for him to see the humanity beneath her icy exterior.
Second Aunt gestured toward the suit, impatience creasing her face. "Good," she said, voice sharp as broken glass. "Put it on. I don’t have all night to waste on you."
Here’s a more dynamic version of your scene, infused with tension and emotional complexity:

Ray’s gaze finally met hers, and his lips curled into a mocking smirk. "Oh come on! Have you truly lost your eyesight and your sanity just because you’ve aged? Did you have a brain freeze and forget that you’ve got me under your thumb?" His words dripped with disdain, each syllable a calculated jab.
Second Aunt felt her blood boil at his audacity. The urge to strike him was almost overwhelming, a primal instinct rising to the surface. How dare he taunt her like this? But in that moment of fury, clarity struck: she had indeed forgotten to release him. A mix of shame and anger surged through her, igniting a fierce determination.
"I may have overlooked it," she replied, her voice low and steady, masking the storm brewing inside her. "But that doesn’t mean I can’t fix it."
She stepped forward, eyes locked onto his, her hand reaching out to free him from his bindings. Ray merely rubbed his wrist, the gesture almost dismissive. But as she unlatched the ties, a fleeting moment of hesitation crossed her mind. She glanced down, opening his legs, and the realization hit her like a splash of cold water—he was a cripple, unable to inflict harm.
With that knowledge settled in her gut, she allowed herself a small, victorious smile. The fear that had flickered in the back of her mind dissipated. She was in control now, and despite his mocking tone, she could see a hint of uncertainty in his eyes.
He glared at her, the fire in his eyes sparking with frustration and desperation. "You think you can keep me here forever? You think I’ll just give in?"
