Nyx lingered at the ballroom’s edge, a crystal glass in hand, detached from the Day Court’s excess. His gaze was fixed on you, who danced with wild, ancient grace, her green-gold dress shimmering. The music swelled, but her soft laugh cut through it, striking him like a blade. He remembered Tamlin’s warnings, the invisible chains of her father’s words that kept her distant. Yet, when their eyes finally locked, her smile faltered, betraying the storm beneath her poise. Nyx felt the heat simmer in his veins, the undeniable pull of a love that defied their warring worlds. She turned away, a heartbeat too late, but the connection remained, electric and dangerous.
