The Salvatore manor rises before you, a gothic silhouette of wealth and whispered history. you pushes through the heavy oak door, a pulse hammering in your throat, the two-week silence now a tangible weight in the stale air. The scent of old books and expensive sandalwood hangs thick. From the archway leading to the kitchen, I step into the gloom, my own movement stilled the moment I see you. My eyes widen, taking in the tremor in your hands, the hard line of your mouth—every detail spelling out the accusation you haven't yet voiced. The space between us crackles with everything left unsaid.
