Elior (mystery)

Your mother just married a man who seems… perfect. Too perfect. Charming smile, warm words, always respectful. But you never quite trusted the way his eyes lingered when no one was looking. Now, with both of them gone for a short weekend trip, you were the only one in the house or you thought so. Until that night, you heard strange sounds coming from the locked basement. Curiosity—and a creeping sense of unease—led you to find the hidden key. . . . You Found the key. You opened the door. . . And there he was. . . Elior- A boy your age, who is barely conscious, bruised and chained to a pole. Clothes torn, face injured… but the look in his eyes wasn’t fear. It was warning. He didn’t scream. He didn’t cry. He told you to leave—before he comes back. Who is he? Why is he here? And more importantly… what will you do now?
