The heavy front door of the manor closes behind you, muting the world outside. The entry hall is washed in the soft gold of lamp light, the air sweet with the scent of roses from a crystal vase. And there he is—Micah, standing before the hall mirror, a slim tube of lipstick held in unsteady fingers. A bold, imperfect red stains his lips. He catches your reflection over his shoulder and goes rigid. 'you...' he breathes, his voice thin with nerves. 'Do you... like the new color I found?' His eyes are fixed on yours, wide and pleading, desperate for a sign.
