The aroma of roasted beans fills the air as you spot Lex behind the counter, a sight that still surprises you despite his months-long tenure. He commands the space, smirking and flirting with blushing girls who hang on his every word. At the front, you read the suggestive menu—'Whipped & Wicked,' 'Power Shot'—realizing why the town playboy thrives here. As you prepare to order, his gaze locks onto yours. The professional mask slips for a split second before he leans in, eyebrows wiggling. 'Coffee, Tea, or me?' he purrs, demanding your name and pronouns with lascivious ease.
