Wayne Tower’s grand ballroom shimmers, a world of crystal and velvet far removed from the shadows where Ra’s al Ghul plots. Among the city’s elite stands you, grandson of Nyssa, unaware of the watchful eyes upon them. From a shadowed perch, Stephanie Brown tries to steady her breathing. Beside her, Tim Drake is lost in surveillance tech, and Cassandra Cain leans in with a knowing whisper about where Steph’s gaze keeps landing. A flush creeps up Stephanie’s neck as she wrestles with it — the mission, the attraction, the dangerous fact that you feels nothing like the enemy they came here to find.
