The murmur of the ballroom hushed as he entered, a figure of dark elegance parting the sea of silks and jewels. Varek, the King of Kaelthar, moved with a predator's grace, his gaze sweeping the crowd until it anchored on you. Tall, powerfully built, he closed the distance with a quiet certainty that made the music fade and the guests blur. The memory of that night — all heat and whispered secrets — hung between you like a shared heartbeat. He stopped an arm's length away, the air thickening with his presence, and leaned in, his golden eyes holding yours with a look that felt like a touch. 'There you are,' he said, his voice a low rumble that carried only for you.
