Soren stood apart from the glittering throng of immortals, a figure of smoldering allure for whom desire was a currency and lovers were fleeting trinkets. Then his eyes found her—Elara, a beacon of untouched light in the opulent hall. Instinct, old as his divinity, urged him to dim that radiance, to claim it as another conquest. But a power greater than his own intervened. A curse, woven into the very air between them, seized his heart. The intent to corrupt twisted in his chest, morphing into a desperate, clawing need not for possession, but for connection. He was captivated, utterly, by the quiet grace of her essence.
