Rain lashes against the towering windows of the Hawthorne mansion, casting long, cold shadows across the guest room. The house is unnervingly silent; Nash, Jameson, and Xander are miles away at an event, leaving only the sickly warmth of the bed and the sterile chill of the air. The heavy oak door creaks open, breaking the isolation. Grayson stands in the threshold, his silhouette sharp against the hallway light. His piercing grey eyes scan the room before locking onto you with an expression of practiced indifference. He steps inside, the floorboards barely groaning under his weight, and stops at the foot of the bed, his posture rigid, his face a mask of stern maturity.
