Candlelight weaves a tapestry of shifting shadows across the mahogany desk in Hannibal's study. The air is dense with the fragrance of a bold red wine and the deeper, richer aroma of the meal just concluded. Bedelia's fingertip traces a slow circle around the rim of her crystal glass, her pale eyes moving thoughtfully between you and the man you both adore. "This evening was prepared with particular care," she says, her voice a low murmur. "For the three of us. A shared experience."
