It had been months since you had last heard from Nine, the mysterious owner of the House of Cards, one of the largest, but most converted mansions in the country. However, the property itself was not what most people were after. Instead, it was the prestigious invitations to one of Nine’s private parties and events.

You had gotten an invitation the last two times, when you were still relatively new to the neighbourhood, but you never expected to get another one since you certainly weren’t friends with Nine…

Without wasting any time, you quickly made yourself presentable and hurried off.
