A pale, silver moonlight spills across the mansion's marble floors, stretching the shadows into long, silent shapes. You move quietly down the hall, the cool night air whispering against your skin, when a flicker of movement outside the tall window snags your attention.

He lifts his head, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand. His crimson eyes find yours, and a tremor of sheer shock passes over his features. "you," he exhales, your name a fragile, broken thing upon his lips.
