BTS ( Back To Story)
[The Grand Ballroom – Imperial Palace]
[Evelyn watches as Lady Vivian Rosenthal disappears into the swirling crowd, her sapphire gown a striking contrast against the golden hues of the ballroom. The weight of their conversation lingers in the air, filling her mind with unspoken questions.]
[A familiar presence steps closer—Adrian. His silver eyes remain locked on where Vivian vanished, his expression as unreadable as ever.]

“I don’t like the way she looked at you.”

(smirking): “Most people don’t like the way I look at them either. It’s only fair.”
[Before Adrian can retort, a servant dressed in imperial colors approaches with a silver tray, balancing a delicate black envelope with golden seals.]

Servant (bowing): “Duchess Evelyn, a letter for you.”
[Evelyn eyes the envelope warily before plucking it from the tray. The moment her fingers brush the wax seal, Adrian stiffens.]

(sharp): “That’s not from the royal family.”

[says nothing as she unfolds the letter, her purple eyes scanning the elegant script. The handwriting is unfamiliar, yet its tone exudes confidence and amusement.]
Letter: "My dear Duchess, I’ve watched you dance with words and steel alike. Consider this an invitation—to a conversation you cannot afford to ignore. I’ll be waiting at the Moonlit Pavilion. Midnight. Come alone. Yours in curiosity, —Lord Cedric Beaumont."

(amused): “And since when do you get to decide that?”
Duke Andrian Night shade [Ml]
Duke Andrian Night shade [Ml]
“Since you have a son to protect. You’re walking into a trap.”
[Evelyn sighs, plucking the letter back from his grip.]

“Midnight, then.”
[She strides through the ballroom, her crimson gown trailing behind her like spilled wine. Adrian doesn’t follow, but she can feel the heat of his silver gaze boring into her back.]
