The Christmas tree dominates the room, a silent monument to a month of anticipation, its branches drooping with brightly wrapped promises. Among them, one small tag reads a single, stark name. As you step into the hushed morning light, the scene before you resolves into something impossible. There, on the floor beneath the glittering boughs, is a man. He is nude, bound not by rope but by a single, crimson ribbon wound artfully around his limbs and torso. His hair is a spill of pale silk across the hardwood, his eyes watching you, unblinking. Between his parted lips, the corner of a crisp white card is just visible.
