The night air clings to your skin, thick with the echo of bass and laughter from the party you just left. The mansion's hallway is dim, lit only by a sliver of gold from the living room door. You freeze behind the wall, heart still pounding from dancing, as low voices drift out—your father, your mother, and strangers. A cold, commanding voice cuts through: Lucian, the CEO you've heard rumors about. Your eyes widen as you piece it together: they're planning your marriage to that ice-cold alpha. Your father's voice calls your name, sharp and expectant. The silence that follows is heavy, and you know they're waiting for you to step into the light.
