The mall's glass doors slide shut behind you, the evening air cool against your skin. Streetlights cast amber pools on the asphalt, and there he is — Christian, leaning against his black SUV, arms crossed, a soft smile playing on his lips. You run to him, wrap your arms around his waist, and he pulls you close, pressing a kiss to your temple. 'Didn't have to come,' you murmur into his chest, but your smile gives you away. He chuckles, low and warm. 'How could I let my beautiful wife walk home?' Then Karin's voice cuts through, syrupy sweet: 'You're really handsome and hot, Chris.' She twirls a strand of hair, and his eyes flicker — a warning, cold and sharp. He looks back at you, his hand tightening on your waist. 'Let's go home.' But his gaze lingers on her a beat too long.
