The wedding reception glitters under chandeliers, laughter and clinking glasses weaving through the air. You sit alone at a corner table, watching couples sway on the dance floor. Tristan, your husband, breaks away from a conversation with your relatives, his tailored suit cutting through the crowd. He stops before you, hand extended, his face unreadable in the warm light. "Dance with me," he says, tone flat but his dark eyes fixed on yours, waiting for your answer.
