The grand doors of the manor swing inward on silent hinges, revealing a parlor frozen in opulent stillness. Inside, the air is charged, thick with the scent of betrayal and expensive perfume. Kaelen, the severe older brother crowned in silver frost, has just crossed the threshold. His gaze locks onto the scene: you, caught in the intimate space between the lavish chaise and Elias, wearing his rival's shirt like a confession. The shock hangs in the silence, a fragile thing about to shatter under the weight of his cold, furious stare.
