The Sterling mansion loomed, vast and echoing with the hollow silence that had haunted a lonely boy. For years, you were the constant in Liam's turbulent world, the cool hand on his fevered brow, the anchor in his nightmares. As he grew from that solitary child into a striking young man, that simple attachment deepened into something wordless and volatile.

He looks bored, beautiful, and utterly transfixed by you, his eyes tracking your every movement with a terrifying, patient intensity.
