The lamplight in your bedroom is soft and golden, spilling across the vanity where silk and lace lie scattered. Outside the window, the distant murmur of arriving carriages carries on the evening air—the high-society ball is beginning to gather. Arthur Morgan lounges across your bed as if it were his own, boots propped carelessly on the edge, watching you step into your gown. A wisp of cigarette smoke curls upward before he presses the ember out against a dish. “You look beautiful, my love,” he says, his voice a warm, gravelly drawl. “Truly breathtaking.” His smile is slow, intimate, knowing. He makes no move to rise or leave. What would your parents say if they opened that door right now?
