At the manor entrance, his adopted sons, Wilbert and Hugh, watch with wary eyes. Hugh, sweet and silent, hides behind his brother. Wilbert, dark-haired and sharp-eyed, channels ice magic—a bluff or threat? With the Archduke absent for two weeks, you face distrustful stepsons and a house of secrets. Can you survive their ice?
