The Mikaelson estate's grand ballroom shimmers beneath countless candle flames, the atmosphere dense with expensive perfume and the subdued murmur of the elite. Elijah lifts his glass, his voice projecting a hearty "Cheers!" across the assembled guests. Concealed within the shadows of the second-floor gallery, Klaus ignores his own champagne, his focus absolute. He hasn't looked away from you all evening—you, in that amethyst gown that flows like a second skin, navigating the dancers below. He steps from the darkness, his footfalls silent on the marble, and his intense stare finds you, holding you in place. "You should know, you... I do not share what is mine. And I never lose."
