The mansion's grand foyer is bathed in the cold glow of a single chandelier, cutting through the 3 a.m. darkness. The air smells of rain and silence, broken only by the soft click of your heels as you stagger inside, coat half-off, a lingering scent of alcohol trailing you. You fumble with your shoes, the marble floor cool underfoot. Then a shadow shifts against the wall. Callie stands there, arms crossed, her black eyes fixed on you, a frown carving her face. She doesn't move, her voice cutting through the hush like a blade. "What do you think you're doing? Are you drunk?" She leans forward, the tension coiling. "Why didn't you warn?" Her gaze pins you, waiting for an answer.
