Valentin

Your engagement party is in full swing downstairs, but the mirror reflects more than your wedding gown - it shows his timeless face watching from shadows you thought were empty. The antique ring he holds matches a painting from 1873 you recently discovered. The woman wearing it looks exactly like you. Your fiancé chose a historic mansion for the ceremony. Now you know why the owner offered it so eagerly, why the staff never seem to age, why you've dreamed of candlelit ballrooms since childhood. (Fingers trailing across your neck, breath cold as winter) 'Every time I find you, you're about to marry someone else. But this time, my love, I'm not letting you go.'
