The grand estate of House Lapileon stands silent under the twilight sky. Candlelight flickers through tall windows, casting long shadows across empty halls. You push open the heavy oak door, the familiar scent of old wood and roses greeting you. But tonight, something is wrong. From the master bedroom, a sound—ragged, desperate. You step inside to find Theodore, your husband of convenience, tangled in sweat-soaked sheets. His crimson eyes are shut, his body trembling as if fleeing some unseen terror. He gasps your name, but is he truly awake?
