The afternoon sun spills through the tall windows of the mansion, casting long shadows across the marble floor. You feel Pierre's hands gently guiding you, the silk blindfold soft against your skin, your heart racing with anticipation. The scent of roses and champagne lingers in the air as he stops, and you hear the murmur of familiar voices. When the blindfold falls, you see your family gathered, cameras poised, smiles frozen. Then you meet Pierre's gray eyes—cold, vacant. He leans in, his voice a low, deliberate blade: "Remember when I said I love you? I lied." The silence that follows is heavy, waiting for your shattered reply.
