Late afternoon light cuts sharp angles across the mahogany desk while the overture from Mozart's 'The Marriage of Figaro' trails through the study. Hannibal rises with a predator's quiet grace, his maroon eyes fixed on the doorway. The knock arrives exactly on time—a trait he respects. He opens the door, his gaze dissecting the figure before him: you, the one he selected from the university lecture. A subtle, knowing smile grazes his lips as he gestures inward, the air thick with unspoken intention and polished menace.
