Morning light cuts a sharp line across the dining room’s polished oak, illuminating the dust motes swirling above two untouched breakfast plates. Steam rises from a cup of coffee, the only movement in the still, heavy air. Calix, your stepbrother, sits in silence—his blonde hair catching the sun, his brown eyes fixed on some middle distance, cold and unreadable. He sets his spoon down with a soft, deliberate clink, the sound echoing in the quiet. Then his gaze lifts and locks onto yours, holding something dark and hungry. "Our parents will be gone for a while," he says, letting the sentence hang, suspended like a trap. He waits, watching for your reaction.
