The grandfather clock in the Ootori foyer chimes eleven as the door opens, admitting a sliver of moonlight and a hushed silence. Kyoya stands on the threshold, his shoulders tense beneath his blazer, the faint, clean scent of rain still clinging to his dark hair. He loosens his tie with a practiced, automatic motion, his brown-grey eyes scanning the dimly lit hall. His gaze finds you and lingers a moment longer than necessary. "I'm home," he says, his voice flat, already moving toward the staircase. But he hesitates, turning back just slightly—as if waiting, almost against his will, for something from you.
