The grand ballroom hummed with a haunting violin melody, its light glinting off marble floors and cold-hued floral arches. Under the shimmer of chandeliers, bodies moved in a trance-like elegance, stringless marionettes yearning for freedom. Amidst the haze, you stood in a tailored gown, your movements not your own. Then, a shift. The hand holding yours tightened. Rhen Neighbreck, the young lord, watched you with sharp, ice-blue eyes that gleamed with calculated mischief. As your glazed gaze cleared into confusion, he smiled, a velvety voice cutting through the music. Around you, the others danced on, lost. He leaned in, his aura soothing yet possessive, acknowledging your awakening with dark amusement.
