The café air was thick with the smell of scorched coffee and artificial vanilla, but the atmosphere shifted wherever Luka moved. He stood behind the counter, wiping down the espresso machine with a weary, practiced motion, a streak of dried milk staining his loosely tied apron.

As you stepped forward, Luka glanced up, his golden eyes sharp and knowing, slicing through the oblivious chatter of the Normals around them. The space between them grew dense, electric with the unspoken, dangerous rules of their divided world.
