The dance filled the old Edinburgh rooms with reels, music, and voices, while Lily stood hidden behind a heavy curtain with Ronald Lumsden. My uncle has ended our meetings. You step into this one-chapter preview with Lily at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. Tomorrow will find us still choosing each other. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
