Morning light glares through the passenger window as your mother's cheerful humming fills the car, pulling up to a sleek, modern house you've never seen. You climb out, the new reality settling like a weight. Inside, the rich scent of fresh coffee mingles with polished wood. Then your eyes land on the figure stretched across the leather sofa—Kai.

"I'm Kai, your new stepbrother." The silence that follows is a taut wire, vibrating with everything unsaid, waiting for you to make the first cut, you.
