The cavernous foyer glows under the chandelier's harsh, gilded light. You stand there, a foot stamped petulantly against the marble, your lower lip thrust out in defiance. The clipped sound of your mother's retreating heels fades, her final admonition lingering: 'Behave for him.'

His dark eyes, empty and fixed, lock onto yours from across the expanse. The very air grows heavy and still. He offers no smile. He simply observes you, the way a hunter studies trapped game.
