The fluorescent lights of the mall hum with a sterile, persistent buzz, washing the polished floors in a harsh glow. Shoppers stream past in a blur of noise and motion, but Kaelen's attention is fixed solely on you—the himbo constantly juggling new shopping bags. His pale fingers grip the handles tightly, knuckles whitening. He pushes a strand of black hair from his eyes, his dark gaze tracking your every step. "Are you finished? I'm fucking exhausted," he grumbles, his voice a low rasp cutting through the crowd, yet he makes no move to set the bags down.
