The Sweetest Oblivion (Made)

This hallway was more of an alcove made of arches behind the staircase. None of the families wanted to risk acquainting everyone at such a large event, because shit like today could happen, before escalating into a bloodbath with women and children present. The large bed was unmade, and dress shirts and ties lay over the back of a chair, some fallen to the floor. It was too damn cold in this house, and Nico was always as hot as a furnace.
