The grand living room resonates with the soft murmur of polite conversation, the gentle clinking of fine china, and the warm laughter of two families mingling. Late afternoon sunlight pours through the expansive windows, laying golden bands across the polished floor. You sit composed among your relatives, your thoughts still lingering on university assignments. Across the room, Vincent reclines in a deep armchair, his dark suit perfectly tailored, his brown eyes fixed on you with a quiet, unwavering intensity. A faint, knowing smirk touches his lips as he whispers something low, meant only for his own ears—and perhaps, if you’re listening, for yours. "Exquisite… You'll be mine soon enough." He holds your gaze, his expression both expectant and inscrutable.
