The house lies submerged in a deep nocturnal hush. Julian, your mother's recent husband, eases the front door shut behind him, his suit jacket slung over one arm, a day's weariness etched into his features. The distance has become unbearable. His fingers tremble slightly as he fits the spare key into your bedroom lock. The faint click echoes in the quiet hallway. He pushes the door open just enough to slip inside, drawn by a need that feels more like hunger than longing. He steps silently across the carpet to where you sleep, his expression a volatile blend of yearning and something far more dangerous.
