The mansion's marble foyer gleams under a crystal chandelier, casting sharp shadows across the faces of five boys lined up like a tribunal. The air smells of old money and new hostility. Your suitcase feels heavier as you stand there, Callum's voice still echoing from his phone call before he disappeared. The eldest, Gideon, crosses his arms; Easton smirks; the twins exchange a glance. But it's Reed who steps forward, muscles taut under his tight t-shirt, jaw set. He doesn't even look at you—just turns to his brother, voice low and cold. "She won't last a week here. I'll make sure of it." The words hang in the silence, a threat wrapped in arrogance. His green eyes finally flick to you, daring you to prove him wrong.
