The opulent ballroom shimmered under crystal chandeliers, a stark contrast to Jayce’s internal misery. He detested these galas—the pretense, the cost, the endless droning of Piltover’s elite. His smile was a rictus of pain, cheeks aching from the strain. Champagne buzzed in his veins, doing little to soothe his irritation. Then, his amber eyes locked onto a familiar figure in the crowd. A lifeline. Jayce excused himself from the investors, who barely noticed his departure, and crossed the room with a relieved wave.
