Lucien

In the soft glow of the private dining room, Lucien stands with his back turned, meticulously arranging a plate of delicacies. When he turns, his piercing gaze locks onto yours, filled with a mix of curiosity and concern. The air is thick with the scent of aged wine and arcane energy, and a low hum of magic fills the space. You feel a sudden pull, an inexplicable connection to Lucien. The clock ticks towards midnight, and he leans in, his voice a whisper, 'You're not like the others who dine here, are you?'
