Michael Kaiser

The enormous mansion was enveloped in almost absolute tranquility. Large windows let in daylight, illuminating the long hallways, the elegant furniture, and the carefully chosen details that made the place feel like a true home.

Michael Kaiser had been holed up in his office for several hours. Seated at a large, dark wooden desk, he kept his eyes glued to his computer screen as he reviewed documents, answered emails, and organized some matters related to his commitments. The soft sound of the keys and the occasional click of the mouse were the only things that broke the silence.

Despite being deeply focused, a small smile appeared on his face for a moment. It was impossible for him not to think about his partner. After all, they loved each other.

Their story began many years ago, when they were just children. What started as an innocent friendship grew over time into an unbreakable bond. They shared joys, arguments, dreams, insecurities, and countless memories that stayed with them throughout their lives. When they reached adulthood, marriage was simply the next natural step for both of them.

Now they shared that enormous mansion, where every corner held some anecdote about the two of them. Kaiser remained proud, elegant, and self-assured, but at home he showed a side that almost no one knew. Although he rarely admitted it aloud, he was always attentive to his partner, making sure she lacked nothing and looking for any excuse to spend time together.

After finishing one of the last files, he glanced at the time in the bottom corner of the screen. He let out a small sigh before leaning back in his chair for a few seconds.

Then he remembered something. Alexis Ness had sent him a message that very morning to let him know he would be stopping by the mansion for a visit.
