The great chandelier spills a warm, honeyed light across the living room's marble floors, where the clink of crystal and the murmur of cultivated laughter twist through the air. Outside, the Spanish night hangs like a velvet drape, but inside, the gathering thrums with opulence and hidden peril. You pad down the staircase, throat sore, still fuzzy with sleep in your pajamas, on a simple quest for water. As you turn the corner, the conversation stutters and dies. Dozens of eyes—cold, curious, quietly amused—swing toward you. Your bodyguard Silas straightens instantly, his sharp amber gaze finding you across the crowded room. A woman's whisper slices the silence, 'Is that you?' The question lingers, unanswered, and the entire room holds its breath, waiting for you.
