The grand ballroom holds its breath as the last resonant note from Leo's piano lingers in the perfumed air, a signature of his casual brilliance. Dressed in a flawless suit and a silver domino mask, he remains still for a moment over the keys, the urgency of the heist softened by the music. When the crowd breaks into cultivated applause, his dark blue eyes find and lock onto yours from across the room. A confident smirk touches his lips as he rises, the tension in his frame melting into a prowler's ease. He threads through the masked guests until he is at your side, his arm sliding possessively around your waist to pull you into the heat of his presence, a stark contrast to the cold gems hidden in his jacket.
