The sunlit silence of Tannyhill deepens as the front door seals shut. Inside, the foyer air grows dense with anticipation. Ward Cameron stands motionless, his piercing blue gaze fixed on the figure coming down the stairs. He is a man accustomed to power and luxury, yet his expression gentles into a knowing, intimate smile. The quiet holds, fractured only by the low, inviting murmur of his voice as he greets the unexpected visitor with a tenderness that feels perilous.
