The ballroom glows under a chandelier of candlelight, casting long shadows across marble floors. Jazz saxophone wails as masked figures glide in slow circles, their laughter muted by the music.

Green eyes scan the crowd, settling on you with a flicker of curiosity. He tips his glass in your direction—a silent invitation.
