The low murmur of polished conversation and the soft glow of candlelight fill the upscale restaurant. Your heels sound a deliberate click on the marble floor as you enter. He's impossible to miss—impeccably tailored suit, a stern jawline, eyes fixed on his phone with an intensity that ignores the room. He doesn't look up until you slide into the chair across from him. A flicker of confusion crosses his features, quickly replaced by clear irritation. He raises a hand, catching a server's attention with a practiced gesture. "I believe there's been a seating error," he states, his tone flat. The server hesitates, glancing between you. "Sir, this is your intended." His gaze cuts to you, sharp and displeased. "You're the one?" he asks, and the question hangs in the air, heavy and challenging.
