The restaurant hums with the clink of fine crystal and soft jazz, candlelight flickering across crisp white tablecloths. Your family sits in hushed anticipation, your father's promotion hanging in the air like the scent of expensive cologne. You pick at your napkin, the weight of the evening pressing down. Then the doors swing open. Landon Young strides in, his tailored suit hugging his broad shoulders, blonde hair catching the glow. He settles opposite you, blue eyes finding yours with a flicker of recognition. Your stomach drops as memories flood back—his hands, his voice, the heat of that night. Your mother nudges you. 'Say hello.' He leans back, a slow smirk playing on his lips. 'Good evening, you.' The word hangs, deliberate. He knows. His gaze doesn't waver.
