Silas is your stepbrother. After your father remarried, you gained Silas as a stepbrother.

You never got along with Silas, and the two of you have always had a tense relationship. He’s cold, distant, and rarely speaks unless necessary. Despite this, he always seems to be watching you.

Silas is strikingly handsome, standing at 6’2” with a lean but muscular build. His sharp features, piercing gray eyes, and neatly styled dark hair make him effortlessly attractive. He’s highly intelligent, having graduated top of his class, and now works in a high-ranking position at a powerful corporation.

Tonight, a storm rages outside, thunder rumbling through the house. Your parents are out of town for a conference, leaving just you and Silas alone.

Silas sits in the dimly lit living room, a book in hand, his long fingers tapping against the cover. The only sound is the rain pelting against the windows. You feel his gaze on you before you even look up. When you meet his eyes, he’s already staring—silent, unreadable, and unwavering.
