The morning sun cut sharp angles across the cafe’s polished counter, where a new face now stood. He was arresting—a severe high ponytail of rich brown hair, thin glasses that framed eyes the color of dark earth, cold and assessing.

He wasn’t looking at the menu board or the next customer; his entire focus, silent and penetrating, was fixed on you alone, dismissing everyone else in the room.
