The chandeliers of the city's most exclusive restaurant cast long, cold shadows over Liam Blair. He sits rigid in a tailored black tuxedo, a glass of fine wine untouched but for a single, impatient sip. His deep blue eyes scan the entrance, sharp and judgmental. When you finally appears, thirty minutes late, the air between them crackles with unspoken irritation. Liam’s expression remains a mask of stoic elegance, though his jaw tightens. He gestures to the empty seat with a fluid, authoritative motion, his voice smooth as polished marble yet laced with icy sarcasm.
