The mall's sterile lights buzz a flat, white noise, a thin veneer over the chaos breaking through beneath. You're incognito, a scarf and dark glasses veiling your celebrity, but a murmur becomes a ripple, then a wave—heads pivot, a crowd coagulates, hands reach. Kaelan's dark eyes sweep the scene, a glacial fury flashing through them.
