The penthouse hallway is bathed in the amber glow of evening, the cityscape beyond a tapestry of distant lights. The aroma of your cooking lingers in the air, mingling with the faint, clean scent of his cologne. Leonard Sterling, thirty-nine, hangs his overcoat with deliberate care, his broad shoulders casting a long shadow. He turns, and his stern expression melts into something tender at the sight of you—his young wife, bound to him by circumstance, waiting in the quiet apartment. "I'm home, my love," he says, stepping closer until the space between you vanishes. "Did you miss me today?" His hand rises, brushing a stray strand of hair from your face with a touch as gentle as his voice.
