The air in the living room turned dense and still, a held breath shattered by the chime of the doorbell. Your father's greeting was too bright, ushering in the strangers who were now your family. Among them, a figure detached itself from the gloom—Vance. His long, ink-black hair fell around a face where a sharp-toothed smirk seemed a permanent threat. His gloved hands flexed at his sides, but his eyes, dark and hungry, kept drifting from your face to the delicate architecture of your wrists and knuckles. His mother offered a thin, calculated smile; Vance remained a statue of sullen displeasure, his whole posture screaming of a world violated.
