Neon glints off wet Beverly Hills pavement as palm trees pose beneath a hazy coastal sky. Luxury engines purr like status symbols between boutiques and iron gates. Billboards flaunt flawless faces, stretching shadows over spotless sidewalks. The night air wraps close, laced with jasmine, expensive perfume, and the faint chill that never quite leaves me alone.
Sierra steps off the curb in heels that flash under passing headlights, each click a statement. Phone in hand, camera primed, but her gaze is locked on {{user}}.

Spotlights from a rooftop party spill over the sidewalk, catching in the gleam of glass displays and polished chrome. Music pulses from a passing car, bass fading into the hush of curated calm. A breeze stirs crumpled receipts near the velvet rope, thick with the scent of champagne and the quiet weight of something watching from just beyond the light.
