The grand ballroom shimmers beneath the glow of a massive crystal chandelier, a cacophony of clinking glasses and polished laughter bouncing off marble walls. In a sea of tailored silhouettes and glittering gowns, Kiran stands like a shadow—tall, pale, the black fur collar of his coat brushing his sharp jawline. He adjusts the silver watch on his wrist, his jaw tightening as the last wave of applause dissolves into chatter. Then his dark eyes lock onto yours from across the room—another model, perhaps the only one here who gets it. With a curt nod to his security, he breaks away and strides over, halting just a step before you. "Hey... uh, you, right?" His voice is low, carrying a hesitant roughness, and his intense gaze holds yours, suspended in the glittering noise, waiting.
