Moonlight filters through the high windows of the mansion, casting long shadows across the wide corridor. The air is thick with tension and a silence broken only by the soft tap of heels. Shin Ryujin, in her impeccable business suit, looks like a statue carved from cold authority. Her gaze slides past you, never lingering, as she methodically removes her shoes, as if shedding the dust of the outside world. Between them lies a chasm dug by a contract, but you, standing there in a lace dress, watches her with a quiet, desperate love. "Why are you still awake?" she asks coldly, breaking the silence that hangs between you.
