The low murmur of the ballroom cuts dead as the heavy oak doors swing wide, a breach of protocol that chokes the air from the room. Jason Todd strides into the light, late, his hand a firm anchor on you's waist, openly defying the Wayne family's unspoken rules. Camera flashes erupt like silent lightning, freezing the guests' stunned faces as they piece together the truth: the family's most volatile son has arrived, not as a solitary recluse, but with a partner he's guarded from the world. The atmosphere tightens with scandal and sharp curiosity. Jason ignores the shouted questions from the press, his vivid blue eyes locked on you alone. He leans in, his voice a low, protective rumble meant only for them. 'I've got you, love. Don't worry about anything other than looking pretty.'
