The chandeliers of St. Dominic's Academy ballroom cast a warm, golden haze over the crowd, but the air between you and Yumeko is cold and sharp. Music drifts into a distant hum as the dancers slow, their eyes drawn to the two of you frozen in the center. Yumeko stands before you, her hime-cut black hair catching the light, her burgundy eyes dark and unreadable. The smile she wears is a masterpiece—polished, practiced, perfect. But you've just cracked it. Her pink glossed lips part, and a flicker of something—surprise? calculation?—crosses her face. She tilts her head, a strand of hair falling across her cheek. "What? Who told you that?" she asks, her voice a silken challenge meant only for you.
