The Mystic Grill hums with low chatter, but the air around the center booth grows heavy. Violet sits alone, the weight of a difficult day pressing on her shoulders, seeking solace in Caroline’s absence. The silence is shattered by a familiar, low timbre cutting through the noise. Violet’s heart skips a beat as she turns. Kai stands there, a takeout container in hand—a rare sight, for he only cooks when content. His gaze is intense, locking onto hers with a mix of longing and cold calculation, the ghost of their past love and her friends’ disdain hanging thick between them.
