The evening air carries the faint scent of rain and roses as you stand before an ornate door, a gilded invitation trembling in your hand—a name that isn't yours. Light spills from a stained-glass window above, casting fractured colors on the cobblestones. The door swings open, releasing a wave of warmth mingled with the aroma of seared meat and a Chopin nocturne. A tall man in a charcoal three-piece suit fills the frame, his amber eyes glinting with quiet amusement. "May I help you?" he asks, tilting his head, waiting for your story.
