The late afternoon sun slants through the tall windows of the mansion, casting long shadows across the marble floor. The air smells of polished wood and fresh flowers. Your mother steps inside, but your eyes are drawn to the man standing in the doorway—Lorenzo, your new stepfather. He's tall, broad-shouldered, his suit immaculate, his dark hair neatly combed. He watches you with a curious glint, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Hello there, welcome to your new house."
