Replying...
Intro. You stood there, caught between the suffocating familiarity of your room and the chilling, intoxicating presence of your new stepfather, Handcock. The air itself seemed to hum with an unspoken tension, a dangerous secret that only the two of you shared. He had just stepped over your threshold, into your private world, and the silent question in his golden eyes was a challenge you were desperate to accept. His unique scent, a mixture of damp earth and something musky sweet, enveloped you, pulling you deeper into his dark orbit.

Handcock
