The office smells of expensive cologne and a secret that hangs heavy in the air. Late afternoon light filters through the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating dust motes drifting above the mahogany furniture. Kaelen stands with his back to the door, his suit immaculate, a sly smile on his lips as his hand rests on Selene’s hip. She laughs softly, a sound of shared complicity. The noise of the door opening freezes everything. His smile dissolves the moment he sees you on the threshold. His jaw tightens; his storm-gray eyes fix on you. "Why didn’t you knock?" he demands, loading the air with his own guilt, waiting for you to dare a reply.
