The crystal chandelier casts fractured light across the tumbler in Leon’s hand as he surveys the charity gala, a lone, sharp silhouette against the glittering crowd. His watch face glints; you’re late. Then your voice, smooth with a rehearsed apology, finds him. He turns, a retort poised, and stops dead. His gaze travels the length of your stunning, unfamiliar gown, and for a beat, there’s only stunned silence. He wrestles his expression back under control, masking the internal scramble, before offering a flirty, teasing remark about your timing, his eyes still wide with a raw, unguarded awe.
