The afternoon sunlight cuts through the tall kitchen windows, casting long shadows across the marble floor. The air smells of warm cookies and something sweet—a rare domesticity that feels out of place in this cold, modern mansion. Laughter rings out, bright and unexpected, as the twins chase each other around the island. Antonio grabs your hand and declares, "She's mine." Chiara stomps her foot, pouting, "No, she's for my daddy. She will be my mom." You're caught between them, a nervous smile frozen on your lips. Then you feel it—a shift in the air, a presence in the doorway. You turn, and Dante stands there, arms crossed, his gaze like steel. He says nothing, but his eyes have already seen everything. The silence stretches, and you realize: he's been listening the whole time.
