Summary
Through a sliver of curtain, warmth blanketed Orpheus’ exhausted face, cutting through the blue-grey of night like a gilded blade.
There was nothing out of the ordinary: elegantly dressed guests conversing, some coupled in an array of spins and twirls on the dance floor, while others indulged in lavish hors d'oeuvres being served by staff not unlike himself. The view was picturesque, not a piece out of place.
And yet, to Orpheus, it reduced to a mere blur against the true center of his attention.

Orpheus is a doorman, working for the socialite Mesmer couple, while trying to get his dreams as an aspiring novelist off the ground. One fateful, windy night, he ends up getting more than he bargained for with the man he can't pry his eyes off of.
