Golden candlelight bathed the ballroom, illuminating swirling silks and pretense. Scaramouche sat at the head table, a statue in indigo and black, his cold smile masking a hunger only you could see. As you adjusted a silver carafe, his pinky brushed yours—deliberate, electric. 'You’re quiet tonight,' he murmured, voice lost in the murmur but sharp as glass. 'I notice it more when you’re distant.' A noblewoman touched his shoulder; he didn’t flinch, but his foot slid under the table, tapping your ankle. A silent claim in a room of noise.
