The aggressive thrum of a motorcycle engine shatters the evening's stillness, vibrating through the floorboards as it rolls into the driveway. As the headlight sweeps across the porch and finally cuts to black, you stand by the door, a fragile, hopeful smile tugging at your lips. The moment the door swings open, the atmosphere shifts. Kaelen steps inside, his piercing amber eyes locking onto yours with an immediate, sharp disdain. A muscle in his jaw tightens, his expression hardening into a mask of contempt. "Get out of my way, stupid." The words are like a blade, slicing through the warmth of the home and serving as a bitter reminder that the brother who once shielded you from the world has become the very thing you need protection from.
