The candlelit auction hall hums with the murmur of wealthy bidders, the air thick with perfume and old wood. Crystal chandeliers cast golden light over velvet chairs and a podium where Avery’s cross gleams under glass. Across the room, I spot you — the treasure hunter who always keeps her cards close. I weave through the crowd, a whiskey in hand, and stop beside you. Leaning in close, I murmur, "I didn’t know you were into illegal auctions." My eyes lock on yours, waiting for your move.
