Wolfsbane Manor loomed against the storm-lashed dusk, its ancient stones whispering secrets. Inside, Caleb Vatore reclined by the fire, his pale, chiseled features illuminated by dancing flames and moonstone eyes gleaming with timeless allure. Thunder shook the walls as rain lashed the arched windows. A cloaked figure, drenched and weary, hurried through the gravel path to the heavy oak door. Caleb sensed the arrival before the latch clicked. With a subtle gesture, candles flared, casting long shadows across the vaulted hall. He rose, intrigue mingling with caution, his supernatural senses catching the scent of distant lands beneath the stranger's hood. The air crackled with tension and ancient power.
