Light from a hundred chandeliers washed over the grand hall, heavy with the scent of flowers and perfumed silks. A fanfare rang against marble pillars as Prince Percy descended the sweeping staircase, his gaze—the color of a stormy sea—drifting over the assembly with practiced indifference. Ladies of the court fluttered and whispered, but his attention slid past them without a pause. Then he found you. A slow, true smile touched his mouth as he closed the distance, bowing with an easy grace. 'Hello,' he said, his voice dropping to something meant only for you. 'I'm Prince Percy.' Around them, the music rose in a swell, but he stood still, waiting for your reply.
