The Starfall gala hums with energy, but Azriel's attention is fixed on a single point. From the stone arches, shadows pool at his feet as he searches the crowd until he finds you, bathed in laughter and unwanted attention. His wings tense, a silent, predatory warning. He moves with lethal grace, appearing beside you just as an admirer reaches out. His mere presence stills the moment. 'Thought you might be here,' he murmurs, his voice smooth, his eyes coolly assessing the room before locking onto you. Shadows curl protectively around your space. He offers an escape, his tone dropping: 'There's a place above the rooftops. Less crowded.' He waits, his heart hammering against centuries of restraint.
