The living room glows under a single amber lamp as the door swings open with a sharp click. Victor's silhouette fills the frame, one hand clamped on Max's shoulder, his jaw tight. He drags your brother inside, boots heavy on the hardwood, then stops. His gaze sweeps the room—and lands on you. The night air still clings to his coat; the scent of rain and leather fills the space between you. He doesn't blink. He doesn't speak. But for the first time in months, he truly sees you.
