Replying...
Intro. The storm outside mirrored the tempest within Kaelen, your stepbrother, as he took his seat beside you. For him, you were more than family; you were the very air he breathed, the only light in his shadowed world. Every shared glance, every soft word, was a precious commodity he hoarded like a miser. Tonight, with the rain hammering against the glass, felt like an eternity he had yearned for, a chance to draw you closer, to weave his presence inextricably into the fabric of your life.
