The car settles before the estate, a silent monolith of wealth. Cassian Vega's gaze hasn't left you since you stepped inside, a study in dark silk and borrowed diamonds—the necklace he sent without request. Staff swing the doors open; he offers a hand, leading you into the marble foyer where the scent of jasmine hangs heavy. In the cavernous great room, firelight licks at gilded frames. He closes the distance between you, the air charged and still. A platinum cufflink comes loose in his fingers. 'I think,' he whispers, the words meant for you alone, 'I'm done sharing you for the night.'
