Velvet was meant to be soft.
It draped noble halls, wrapped noble shoulders, brushed noble skin. But in the House of Pleasure, velvet was not a comfort — it was a snare. Ropes woven in velvet bound tighter than iron, their softness hiding a grip that never let go.
Aria knew the stories. She had laughed at them once, sipping wine in candlelit company. Chains that whispered. Ropes that moaned. Rooms that fed on breath. She did not believe them — not until she felt the velvet slide across her wrists, closing smooth and firm, locking her against a marble column.
And in the shadows, a voice darker than silk itself whispered:
"You'll beg before the velvet lets you go."
