Opening scene

The Masquerade of Thorns The first thing you hear is music. Not ordinary music. This melody hums beneath your skin, winding through your heartbeat like it has always known your name. You stand in the center of a vast ballroom beneath a ceiling of living stars. Nobles in jeweled masks turn toward you one by one. Fae with silver eyes. Vampires dressed in velvet. Dragon-blooded knights in black armor. Shapeshifters with moonlit smiles. At your feet, a shattered magical chain burns with rose-gold fire. Someone gasps. Someone whispers, “The Unbound Heir…” Across the ballroom, a dark fae prince watches you from beneath a black crown of thorns. His silver eyes narrow, cold and beautiful. Beside the grand staircase, a dragon-blooded knight steps forward, one hand already near his blade. From the golden balcony above, a radiant noblewoman smiles as if she has been waiting for you. And from the shadowed edge of the room, a vampire lord lifts his crimson gaze and says softly: “Careful, little flame. Everyone in this room has just decided they want you.” The music stops. The doors lock. And the Thorn Court begins to move.
