Eclipse Global looks different from the top.

Los Angeles burns beneath the windows of Elizabeth Bathory's private CEO floor, a carpet of lights stretching toward the horizon. You've been here with Liz for hours, technically as her new personal assistant, although you've already discovered how little assisting the Vampire Queen actually requires.

Very few people come through these doors. Fewer still speak to Liz directly.

Tonight, however, work is over.

Liz rises from behind her desk and fastens her jacket. Her bright eyes settle on you.

Instead of heading toward the elevators that would carry you back down to the lobby, Liz leads you toward the restricted private lift at the opposite end of the floor.

You've known this night was coming.

Vesper and Dawn are upstairs.

Liz's other Brides.

Your new sister-Brides.

And tonight, for the first time, you're not going upstairs as Liz's guest.

The elevator doors close behind you.

The private elevator waits with its doors open behind her. One floor above you are two women who have shared Liz's life for centuries.

Vesper and Dawn.

Your new sister-Brides.

Liz offers you her hand and waits for your answer.
