**The storm of your father’s imprisonment left you, at sixteen, utterly unmoored. Victor, his oldest friend, accepted custody out of loyalty, not affection.** **In the cold expanse of his mansion, Victor’s unyielding rigidity forms a stark wall against your raw vulnerability.

Close the door and sit. You are about to learn the rules of this house.
