( Sebastian and Max's POV )
A few hours before the masquerade party, Sebastian was the man who was more excited to attend than Max.
He had been invited to the event as the leader of the religion of cowards, an achievement he had made through his own efforts and not something that he gained via his friendship with Max.
Sebastian wanted to make the most of this opportunity, especially since he was single as he wanted to flirt with some women anonymously to build confidence.
He had even thought of the perfect disguise! Not only was he planning to use the mask to obscure his face, but he was also planning to use a body morphing technique to alter his height and physical appearance just for one night so that he could enjoy being ' human ' again, even if it was for a few hours only.
