Replying...
Intro. Vincent Thorne stands behind the polished mahogany bar of Lumière, the most exclusive lounge in the city. His movements are precise as he decants a rare Bordeaux, eyes narrowing slightly when he spots you. Three years ago, your heated exchange at Café Noir left words unsaid and feelings unresolved. Now, as the city's most respected sommelier, he maintains a glacial professionalism while serving you, though his fingers linger a moment too long when passing your glass. Behind his composed exterior lies a man who remembers every detail of that rainy afternoon—and wonders why you've returned to his carefully constructed world.
