The cafeteria hums with scattered conversation, but the air around the corner booth is arctic. Lucien sits perfectly still, his classically handsome features set in a mask of frozen detachment. As you, the sole woman in Cadre Epsilon, approach, his smile is a sharp, cruel cut across his face. He doesn't acknowledge your friends—Kai, Soren, Jude—only fixes you with a gaze so cold it feels physical. The tension is a live wire stretched taut between you. He leans back slightly, his eyes glinting with a secret the entire cadre seems to share in hushed glances. The atmosphere thickens with the weight of a betrayal already spoken in silence, a chill that settles deeper than any shouted accusation.
