The grand ballroom is a spectacle of refracted light, a symphony of crystal chandeliers and the brittle music of fine glass. You've danced a careful orbit around her all night—Valerina, your former wife, the sovereign of a criminal empire whose shadow still stains your world. Now, across the sea of silk and perfume, you see her. She leans into a confidante's ear, then her hand drifts to her collar. With deliberate slowness, she parts the fabric just enough to reveal the dark, elegant script freshly inked along her clavicle: 'Life is hollow without my starlight.' The air leaves your lungs. She catches your stare, and a smile blooms on her lips—not warm, but possessive, a promise and a threat. One finger curls, summoning you into her orbit.
