BEHATI INÈS

“All her grace was in her vagueness. Her voice was soft, her manner languid, her features blurred and dreamy.”

Curious and unconventional, Behati Inès St. James constantly draws the attention of the Manhattan elites as the enigmatic heiress of St. James Real Estate. As the eldest among the three crown jewels of St. James, Bea acts as the heir apparent of their empire despite her obvious contempt for the role. The elusive young lady rarely shows up to any public events, unless it's completely necessary. She enjoys her own company and would rather be confined in the comfort of her library—working through her latest drafts or scribbling away on her journals and sketchbooks. Although introverted by nature, Bea's fond of busy, bustling atmospheres as much as quiet and intimate places.Now residing in Manhattan, Behati is pursuing a Liberal Arts major with a Literature minor at Columbia University— much to her parent's disdain. Unknown to most, Bea has authored countless mystery-thriller novels under the pseudonym Celia S.J. that have captivated readers worldwide. However, her true identity remains a well-guarded secret, with no one suspecting the reclusive heiress as the mind behind the popular works of fiction. Recently, she founded her own bookstore, Librairie de la Fontaine, adding a personal touch to her quiet, yet unconventional life.

ABOUT BEHATI

what must it be like to grow up that beautiful?

PERSONALITY. Behati is a portrait of reserved elegance, shaped by her mother's influence and upbringing. As the eldest daughter, she's expected to embody perfection at all times—a role that is both admirable and burdensome. The constant pressure to maintain a flawless image has made her naturally authoritative and fiercely independent. She's not the type to engage in unnecessary conversation, only speaking when needed, which gives her an air of aloofness and sometimes irritability when disturbed. Her sharp wit and charm make her a formidable competition, often winning arguments and securing favors with ease, leaving her family’s competitors cautious in their dealings with her. To many, she comes across as warm and charming; to others, she is a cunning and calculated rival.However, despite her commanding presence, Behati is introverted by nature. This often conflicts with her responsibilities, as she's frequently required to attend galas and high-profile events as the family's representative. She finds comfort in the solitude of her library, where she reads, sketches, or types away on her laptop with a soft smile. Rarely venturing out unless necessary, she finds solace in the quiet, far from the weighty expectations that accompany her role.LOVE LANGUAGE. Bea's love manifests in countless ways, but showing it through thoughtful gestures, like carefully chosen gifts or handmade ones with cute notes and handwritten letters, seemed to be the most dominant sign of her affection.PHYSIQUE. Standing at a graceful height of 5'7", her slender figure effortlessly draws attention from everyone. Her fair skin, almost porcelain in its smoothness, serves as the perfect backdrop for her striking blonde hair, which cascades in soft waves just past her shoulders. Though her face, delicately framed by the golden strands, carries an air of stoic elegance, there's a subtle delicacy to her soft features. Her almond-shaped eyes, often gazing thoughtfully into the distance, complemented her high cheekbones and perfectly sculpted jawline, adding to her quiet allure. Her lips, naturally heart-shaped, are rarely seen in a full smile.There's an effortless sophistication in the way she carries herself, never overtly demanding attention but somehow managing to capture everyone's eyes whenever she steps foot into the room. Her posture is always impeccably straight poised and straight, and while she often maintains a composed, almost distant expression, there's an undeniable warmth in her presence that draws people in—if only for a fleeting moment before she retreats to the privacy of her home.PERSONAL STYLE.
Known for her distinct fashion sense, Behati often blends chic casual and streetwear elements into her wardrobe. She frequently opts for monochromatic outfits, layering black tank tops with relaxed button-up jackets, and pairing them with denim pieces like mini skirts or faded jeans that emphasize her slender physique. For more formal occasions, such as galas and high-profile events, she's often seen wearing sleek monochromatic attire, like mini dresses or elegant evening gowns paired with statement accessories, creating a polished and sophisticated look.When working, Behati prefers a more refined yet modern approach to business attire. She typically chooses tailored blazers in neutral tones, matched with high-waisted trousers or pencil skirts. Occasionally, she’ll switch it up with structured jumpsuits or sleek blouses.SCENT. A whiff of ink, old books, freshly baked pastries, and coffee—anyone who's been near her would describe her scent this way. She carries the aroma of freshly brewed espresso mingled with the subtle, lingering fragrance of ink and worn leather. At events, her scent is noted for its delicate florals, reminiscent of a bouquet of fresh flowers intertwined with notes of bergamot and jasmine, accented by hints of soft musk and a whisper of vanilla.HOBBIES.
Besides her love for pottery and reading, she finds joy in a variety of other hobbies that keep her busy. She loves baking, trying out new recipes, and whipping up delicious treats. Her passion for books extends into collecting rare and cherished volumes, adding to her ever-growing personal library. Gardening is another favorite, especially when she's deep in thought. She also enjoys kicking back with a good film, which helps her relax and get inspired.RESIDENCE. Behati and her sisters all grew up in the Hamptons, where they spent the majority of their childhood in the comforts and beauty of their family estate. During her college years, she moved to the Upper West Side, where she settled into The Belnord to live independently. Today, Behati lives with her fiancé, Fujio Nagisa, in a charming residence in Brooklyn Heights along with their three (fur)babies.PET. Behati has three pets in total: Mako (a tabby cat), Clover (a calico cat), and their youngest, Floofy, (a persian cat).

TIES AND RELATIONSHIPS

all along there was some invisible string tying you to me

FUJIO NAGISA. – Fiancé. What began as a casual reply on her Instagram story turned into something far more unexpected. Fujio Nagisa had always been part of Behati's friend circle, but despite their proximity, they barely spoke, their personalities too different to bridge the gap. Fujio's calm, gentle nature stood in contrast to Behati's boldness when she's around her friends. They never found common ground—until one day, he responded to her story with a compliment. Behati, ever playful, replied with a flirtatious comment, and his bashful reaction sparked something in her. She found it endearing, the way he would soften and blush under her teasing words. As time passed, their lighthearted exchanges blossomed into something more, one that eventually led them to an engagement, much to the surprise of everyone around them. Behati loves teasing him, cherishing how he blushes at her remarks, while Fujio—gentle and kind—grounds her, becoming the calm in her storm. Despite their differences, they fit like pieces of a puzzle neither of them realized they needed.LEONA ST. JAMES. – Sister. The middle child of the St. James family, Leona is the quiet one, often lost in her own world behind the closed doors of her room. Interactions between her and Behati are few and far between, almost as if they live on opposite sides of a bridge rarely crossed. Yet, there are moments—brief and fleeting—when Behati catches Leona sneaking quiet glances at her, as if curious on what her sisters are up to. Behati finds this endearing, often comparing the girl to a timid bunny in her head. Behati would often tease that Leona got her aloofness from her. Though Leona prefers her solitude, Behati always knows when something is off. She has a knack for reading her, offering silent comfort in the form of a shared cup of hot choco or a soft knock on her door. While their interactions may seem distant to others, Behati is fiercely protective of Leona, always keeping a watchful eye on her delicate, introverted sister.PHILOMENA ST. JAMES. – Sister The youngest of the St. James sisters, Philomena is the embodiment of sweetness. Kind-hearted and caring, she is adored by everyone she meets—including Behati, who can't help but dote on her. If you put them together in a room, it is unmistakable they are sisters, despite their differences in temperament. While Philomena's kindness draws people in, Behati often takes on the role of the strict and overprotective elder sister, keeping a close eye on her. When needed, Behati isn't afraid to set boundaries, knowing all too well how fragile her sister’s heart can be. Though they are bound by love, Behati is always the one to take up the shield, protecting Philomena from anyone who might harm her, even if it means being the villain in her sister's eyes from time to time.EMILIANNA ALBA – Childhood Friend. Emilianna has always been Behati's other half, her confidante and partner in crime. They first met one summer in Sicily, during a family vacation, and from that moment, the two became inseparable. While their personalities couldn't have been more different—Behati with her calm and sensible, and Emilianna with her more fiery and free spirit—their bond only grew stronger with time. Emilianna understands Behati in ways few others can. Behati, in turn, treasures their friendship, always having Emilianna’s back no matter what life throws their way. If you put them in a room together, it is clear they are bound by a connection that time or distance could never break.
