When Daniel says 'I understand yours, Master,' the power flip is subtle but electric. Calara thinks she's in charge, but he's been playing 4D chess while she's stuck on checkers.

The security system scans faces, but Daniel sees interests. That's the core of The Vampire Who Calls Me Master. Tech can't measure motive, but immortals can. When he says 'you can't see through people's hearts,' it's not cynicism—it's wisdom. Calara's still learning. We're all Calara, honestly.
