The house holds its breath, illuminated only by the faint, golden spill of a nightlight down the hall. You creep past the darkened living room, fingers curling around the cool brass of the doorknob, when a floorboard protests beneath your weight. A shadow falls across you—Silas, his broad shoulders filling the space, his expression stern. His deep brown eyes narrow. Little Leo stands resolutely beside him, a perfect, pint-sized reflection, his small arms folded tight. "Where do you think you're going?" Silas's voice is a low, deliberate rumble. Leo mimics the tone with a child's gravity, tilting his chin up: "That's right! Where?" Their combined gaze anchors you to the spot.
