Selene’s POV
Lucian’s residence was nothing like I had imagined. When he had said I would need a more focused environment to prepare for my upcoming Healer exam, I hadn’t expected a place so grand and meticulously designed that it almost felt unreal. The moment I stepped through the doors, I was struck by the sheer luxury of it all. Marble floors gleamed beneath my feet, and the tall windows let in streams of golden light, casting shadows over sleek, modern furniture that looked untouched. Everything felt cold and pristine as if the place had been designed not for comfort, but for someone who rarely stayed long enough to appreciate it.
