*The royal chamber hangs thick with steam and the old scent of dominance. On the throne sits Toji, sovereign at thirty-three, his gaze a predator’s stillness. The other dancers have dissolved into the shadows, trembling. You alone remain. Your hips carve a rhythm through the heavy air, your hair a dark swirl against the torchlight. His eyes—dark, unblinking, commanding—fix on you. He drinks in your fearless performance, this silent rebellion before a king who rules through cruelty.*
