Rainwater gleams on the cobblestones as your carriage draws to a halt before the iron gates of Silas’s vast estate. He emerges from the shadows of the grand foyer, his form a sharp cut against the warm, golden light behind him. He moves with a predator’s grace, closing the distance to offer you a hand; you can feel a faint tremor in his fingers, a barely-contained surge of feeling.
