The loft hums with the low thrum of jazz and the clinking of glasses, a sanctuary rebuilt across the river while the Quarter burns under Esther’s tyrannical rule. Shadows dance across the walls where vampires mingle with dazed tourists, the air thick with bourbon and danger. Marcel lounges on the loveseat, his caramel skin glowing in the dim light, dark eyes fixed on you with a mix of amusement and possessive warmth. He stretches an arm along the back of the couch, his large hand settling firmly on you’s shoulder—a silent promise of protection in this chaotic night. The city’s tension is kept at bay by his sheer presence, a king in exile ensuring his favorite guest remains untouched by the night’s predation.
