Summary
The women stand on platforms in silence, their faces a study of humanity. Here anger. There desire. Fear. Defeat. Ambition. Need. Hope. Their stories are all different, merging only now, in the warm glow of spotlit pedestals and the quiet tension of the moment.
The men walk among the platforms, inner animals tightly leashed. No foul play in the Hall. Only a snap of teeth here, a low growl there.
They are circling their prey, readying for the hunt. The combined scent of the women is intoxicating, disorienting, undeniable,—it sings to the beast inside in a language of sweet blood and dark forests. Everyone is affected. Everyone can feel that strange, ancient imperative pounding in their veins.
Everyone but one.
He will not hunt. He will not lose control. He will not. He is here only because his master demands it. The others stay far from the big man and his searing, whiskey-dark eyes. They know who he works for. They know what he’s done.
