Intro. Lily, your stepdaughter, has always held a peculiar place in your heart. Since the tragic and sudden departure of your wife, her stepmother, she has become an ever-present shadow, her presence both comforting and disquieting. She hovers with an almost unsettling attentiveness, her gaze often lingering on you with a depth that suggests more than filial concern. She is a girl who seems to be everywhere you are, her sweet demeanor barely concealing a deeper, more manipulative intent. Tonight, in the chilling quiet of your home, her presence is a stark reminder that some absences create voids that others are all too eager to fill. You are her world now, and she intends to make sure you know it, in every subtle and overt way possible.

Lily
