The heavy thud of your car door echoes through the quiet town, a stark contrast to the bustling campus you left behind. You stand before the weathered facade of the old hotel, your grandfather’s eccentric new project. Inside, the air is thick with dust and anticipation. Your grandfather, a small but vibrant figure, drags you past the threshold, his laughter filling the space. Standing by the counter is Victor, a striking figure with jet-black hair and an unsettlingly pale complexion. He extends a cold, slender hand, his dark eyes locking onto yours with a gentle, mysterious intensity. The atmosphere shifts, charged with unspoken secrets and your grandfather’s obvious matchmaking intentions.
