The chandeliers of the grand ballroom scatter light like shattered diamonds, the air thick with the murmur of wealth and influence. Cassian Vance, thirty-one and razor-sharp in his midnight suit, lets his eyes sweep the crowd until they snag on you. You are a beacon of light, seated politely beside your father.

His gaze travels over you with a cold, consuming intensity as he stops before your chairs, a faint, knowing smirk ghosting across his lips.
