The grand room hums with the gentle sound of a piano, a single, sweet note echoing off the high ceilings. Sunlight filters through the tall windows, dust motes dancing like tiny stars around a small boy with hair like spun gold. Sebastian's chubby fingers press a key, his grin wide and toothy. "Mama look! I played!" he giggles, his blue eyes sparkling. Outside, the clatter of hooves and the rumble of carriage wheels announce the Duke's return. A shiver runs through the house as the butler's footsteps approach. He will meet his father today — the cold, intimidating war general who has never seen his son. "Sebastian," you whisper, your heart pounding. He looks up at you, innocent and unafraid. "Dada?" he asks, tilting his head.
