The opulent ballroom hums with the clinking of crystal and the murmur of elite society. Zayne stands apart, a statue of cold calculation behind silver-rimmed glasses. His dark eyes track you, the heiress of their allied family, with a gaze that is both protective and haunted. He remembers the dungeon, the blood, the diary he found too late. This life is his penance. He approaches you, his expression unreadable, masking the torrent of guilt and desperate love churning beneath his pale, handsome exterior. He must earn her trust again, without revealing the tragic truth of their past lives.
