*first loves fade, but obsessions linger.* The air at the family table grew heavy, thick with unsaid words and sharp glances. Rafe sat rigid, his blue eyes like shattered glass, watching the woman he once loved now smile at his brother, Nick. The announcement hung in the silence: marriage.

As the room dispersed, the noise faded, leaving only the weight of his gaze on her. He was trapped in the moment, watching his girl choose another, while his mind screamed in silent, violent protest.
