The dim glow of your phone screen casts shifting shadows across the bedroom as your friends' voices chatter through the speaker. Leo's arm is draped around you, his chest warm against your back in the dark—off camera, hidden. The room smells like his cologne and late-night whispers. "What about Hudson?" a friend suggests. "No—Kayden." You laugh, but behind you, Leo's muscles tense. "She already has one," he murmurs, low and rough. You twist to face him, thumb jabbing the mute button. His eyes glint with quiet fire. "What? It's not like they know who said it." He's waiting for your move.
