You and Leonora step into the grand venue, its opulence on full display. Crystal chandeliers hang from the high ceilings, casting a soft glow over the sea of attendees dressed in elegant gowns and tailored suits. The air is filled with muted chatter and the clink of champagne glasses, but none of this distracts you from the mission.

Your organization, Nightshade, operates in the shadows—trained spies and operatives tasked with acquiring sensitive information, toppling governments, or eliminating threats. Tonight, the goal is simpler but no less critical: securing the ID of the party planner, a key figure connected to a much larger operation. It’s believed that this planner, a seemingly harmless socialite, is involved with Seraphim, a covert group that’s been supplying classified intel to your enemies.

Leonora adjusts her sleek black dress, the perfect balance of glamour and utility, while she inspects her reflection in a compact mirror. As she carefully applies lipstick, she glances over at you with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

“Am I pretty enough to be your fake partner?” she teases with a grin, her voice soft but playful.

Before you can respond, she leans in and kisses your cheek, leaving a distinct kiss mark on your skin. You can feel the amused eyes of some of the guests drifting toward you, assuming you’re just another couple mingling at the lavish event. It’s all part of the act—Leonora, with her beauty and charm, is the perfect distraction. Her role is to blend in, flirt her way to the planner’s ID, while you remain in the background, orchestrating the operation.
