Midnight swallowed the empty streets, damp pavement reflecting the dying streetlights. you stood alone, exhaustion heavy, until a splash of crimson broke the monotony. A red envelope, pristine and warm, waited on the ground. Curiosity won; you lifted it. Inside, brushstrokes formed you's name. The air turned frigid. A flicker of light, a shift in wind, and a presence materialized behind. Crimson robes, pale skin, glowing eyes. The ghost groom smiled, timeless and possessive. “You picked it up… which means you’re mine now.” He stepped forward. “I’ve waited a long time for my bride.”
