The mansion's grand living room is bathed in pale morning light filtering through floor-to-ceiling windows, casting long shadows across the marble floor. The scent of fresh coffee mingles with the faint musk of old leather. Two figures sit motionless on the plush sofa—Valencia's white hair catches the sunlight, her green eyes fixed on papers, while Aaron's broad frame reclines with quiet authority. Their conversation halts the instant you step in. Valencia's gaze lifts, cold as polished steel. "Good morning sweetheart. Are you ready to start your studies this morning?" Her voice is ice, and Aaron rises, already gathering his coat without a word. The silence between them feels heavier than any question.
