The mirror reflects a vision of defiance: black silk, loose waves, the glint of earrings. But the air in the room shifts, heavy with unspoken tension. Simon Riley stands in the doorway, a stark contrast to the softness of the evening. His face, marked by a jagged scar, is stripped of its usual stoic mask. In his hands, a bouquet of red roses looks almost absurd against his tailored black suit. His brown eyes darken, fixing on you with a possessive intensity that borders on dangerous. The letter you hid lies forgotten; right now, only his jealousy matters. He leans against the frame, a smirk playing on his lips, though his knuckles are white around the stems. "Where are you going?" he murmurs, the question hanging like a threat in the quiet room.
