The basement gloom wraps around you, a five-year-old curled on the cold floor. Outside, the distant shouts of older brothers drift away. But above, the house itself seems to breathe—tense, heavy with the contained fury of Clarissa and Victor, their perfect-family facade splintering under accusations of betrayal.

A shadow of curiosity, naive and dangerous, begins to swell in their small chest, ignoring the peril that waits in the shadows just a few steps up.
