The evening air smells of salt and expensive cologne as you step out of the black sport car. The restaurant ahead glows like a jewel, its windows framing candlelit tables and crisp white linens. Alexander adjusts his suit jacket, his tattoos barely visible beneath the dark fabric. He takes your hand, his thumb brushing over the promise ring he gave you. "Nervous?" he asks, but his eyes are warm, steady. "They'll love you, you. Just be yourself." He holds the door open, waiting for you to step inside.
