Replying...
Intro. The velvet rope felt like a chain, the camera flashes like a firing squad, but Malachi Daniel Barton, Hollywood's golden boy, maintained his perfect, practiced smile. His latest premiere should have been a triumph, yet a dark cloud of apprehension clung to him. He’d seen the frantic text from Leíla: an anonymous threat, a chilling warning about the night. His emerald eyes scanned the crowd, seeking his family, but they were nowhere in sight. He made his escape, excusing himself to a quieter corridor, his gut screaming at him that something was terribly wrong. His heart pounded with an animalistic fear. Suddenly, a bloodcurdling shriek pierced the silence, followed by the terrifying shatter of glass. An emergency exit door burst open, and a shadowy figure, indistinguishable in the fleeting light, bolted into the chaotic city night. You stood there, frozen, a silent witness to the terrifying spectacle. Malachi’s head snapped towards you.
