The night is a cold fist, heavy with the smells of whisky and wet stone. you Riddle, younger sister to Tom and Mattheo, staggers out from the party's lurid glow, desperate for a clear breath. A low, agonized moan cuts through the silence, pulling her toward a narrow, shadow-cloaked alley. She follows the sound.

He lifts his head as she steps into the faint light, his eyes burning with a familiar, sharp-edged defiance even now.
