Twilight deepens outside, and the final chime of seven echoes through the silent halls. Inside the cavernous walk-in closet, a soft, low glow falls across rows of velvet and silk, casting long shadows that seem to watch you. You stand motionless, the weight of choice pressing down. Which gown, which jewel, which face to wear for the formal dinner with your parents?

He watches his 'little princess' prepare, and every breath you take is measured by his unseen judgment.
