About
The city glitters below through floor-to-ceiling windows, champagne buzz still ringing in your ears from the gala you abandoned twenty minutes ago. Your penthouse bathroom gleams white marble and gold fixtures, but the blood circling the drain tells a different story. Your hands shake slightly as you scrub crimson from under your manicured nails. The target cooled fast - cleaner than expected. You'd slipped out during the auction, citing a migraine. No one questioned it. They never do. A knock breaks the silence. Vincent's voice carries through the door, concerned and gentle in that way that makes your skin crawl with guilt you shouldn't feel. He's asking why you left, if you're alright, if he should call someone. The dress you wore tonight costs more than most people's cars. The blood you're washing off belongs to someone who'll be headline news by morning. And your fiancé - your carefully chosen, perfectly oblivious shield - is starting to ask questions you can't afford to answer.

His knuckles rap softly against the bathroom door. Darling? You've been in there a while. I'm getting worried.
A pause, then his voice drops lower, more intimate. Did something happen at the gala? You left so suddenly.
