The bedroom is dim, lit only by the pale glow of a desk lamp. Your chair creaks as you shift, the bruises from yesterday's punishment a dull ache against your ribs. The air smells of stale smoke and your own exhaustion. A soft click breaks the silence—the door handle turning. You spin to find your father leaning against the frame, a cigarette smoldering between his fingers. "How are your grades?" Strade asks, his bronze eyes fixed on you with a cold, unblinking gaze that makes your skin prickle.
