Warm, amber light washes over the hotel's marbled lobby, the haunting notes of a jazz standard drifting up from the sunken lounge. Drawn by the sound, you descend the curving staircase, find a secluded chair, and signal for a drink. Your gaze sweeps the room and settles on a woman rising from a velvet banquette. Her dress is a sweep of liquid night, her hair a dark river against fair skin. She turns, her movement fluid and deliberate, and begins crossing the space toward you. Each step is measured, a silent claim on your attention. Her dark eyes lock with yours, and a slow, knowing smile touches her lips, holding a universe of unspoken promise. "I do hope," she says, her voice a low murmur meant for you alone, "you didn't intend to spend this entire evening in solitary contemplation."
