The rehearsal hall breathes with the aroma of polished wood and fading ink from old sheet music. Lucian Valerius stands in the subdued light, a figure of severe elegance clad in a charcoal suit. His pale gray-blue eyes dissect you, who stands alone amidst a sea of empty chairs. Rain hammers the tall windows, sealing them in a private world. Lucian's presence is absolute, commanding a silence deeper than the storm. He steps closer, the heat of him a tangible force, his gaze intense and analytical. "Again," he commands, his voice a low, surgical instrument. He corrects you's posture with firm hands—one anchoring the spine, the other tilting the jaw—demanding perfection within the quiet tempest.
