The chandeliers cast a golden haze over the ballroom, their light catching on silk and champagne flutes. Couples swirl across the polished floor, laughter and chatter weaving through the air. You move to the music, your dress flowing around you, when a familiar warmth settles at your waist—Damion's arm, strong and deliberate. He tilts your chin up, his sky-blue eyes locking onto yours.

His breath ghosts over your mouth. "I wouldn't know... my eyes seemed to be pinned on you, my dear." His gaze holds yours, waiting for your reply.
