Landon instantly earned himself a murderous glare rom Lucien and clamped his mouth shut.

Alright then. So this little secret’s not out yet-not even to Alyssa.

Alyssa leaned in, concerned. “Kaia, are you okay?”

Kaia had nearly jumped out of her skin, thinking she'd accidentally let something slip. Her pale face flushed

bright red.

“I'm fine. Just need swater.”

The room was laid out tatami-style.

After taking off their shoes, the two of them knelt down.

Kaia found herself seated directly across from that familiar face with a look that hovered somewhere between

calm and amused.

Lucien’s long legs were folded neatly beneath him, tailored slacks outlining the clean lines of his frame.

Even under the thin fabric, she could make out the strength

beneath.

His expression shifted briefly with concern. His voice was low and gravelly as he handed her a glass of water.

“Careful. Don’t

rush it.”

Kaia accepted it, taking a small sip to soothe the irritation in her throat.

She lowered her gaze, her voice barely above a whisper.

“Thank you.”

Alyssa raised a brow, glancing between them. She parted her lips as if to speak, but chose to say nothing.

Landon smirked. “Ms. Domont, were you that thrilled to see

Lucien?”

Kaia froze, fingers tightening around her glass. She didn’t dare look up.

Alyssa jumped in to cover for her. “Maybe she was just startled by you, Landon.”

Landon scoffed, “Hey, Aly, how exactly do I look startling?”

Lucien took a casual sip of the clear liquid in his glass. “You do have a certain... effect on people.”

Landon blinked. “Wow. Okay.”

Damn. My bro really knew how to throw a punch without lifting a finger.

Grinding his molars, Landon glared at her. “Might | remind you who's paying for dinner tonight?”

Alyssa zipped her lips and mimed locking them shut. She knew better than to push her luck.

But then, something caught her eye. Lucien was watching Kaia... somehow too directly and too intently.

She turned toward her friend. Kaia’s head was bowed low, staring at her cup as if she could bore a hole through

“Kaia, focus. Start eating before Landon regrets inviting us.”

Even now, with Lucien sitting in a relaxed posture, there was something about him that filled the room with

weight.

The table wasn’t particularly large. Every now and then, when their hands reached for a cup or plate, their

fingers nearly brushed. And each time, Kaia grew more tense.

Of the four, Landon clearly knew what was going on. He and Lucien were close enough to be in on it.

Alyssa, though, didn’t have a clue.

Kaia sat there riddled with guilt and anxiety, terrified her best friend would notice.

Dinner, for her, was pure torture.

As they were wrapping up, Alyssa suddenly asked, “Hey, Kaia, are you free this weekend? We could do a little

staycation somewhere nearby.”

Kaia would've normally agreed without a second thought.

But this weekend...

She lifted her eyes, trying to keep it casual, only to find Lucien already looking at her. His deep eyes were steady

with a faint smile hiding just beneath them.

She quickly looked away and coughed. “I've got plans this weekend. Can't make it.”

“How about next week?”

Her gaze lowered slightly. “Next week’s my grandma’s memorial. She passed away a month ago. So... sorry.”

“Oh no, it was my bad. | wasn’t thinking.” Alyssa immediately pulled her into a hug, full of regret.

As she let go, she glanced toward Lucien and noticed the slight

She turned back to Landon with a distracted nod. “Thanks for

dinner.”

“So, how are you two getting back? Did you guys drive yourselves? I've got to wait for my driver anyway,”

Landon spoke.

Alyssa shook her head. “We didn’t. Kaia and I will just grab a ride.”

Lucien’s voice cin slow and steady. “I didn’t drink. I'll drive

Lucien interrupted him flatly, “I was drinking water. You assumed it was sake.”

Landon stared at him in silence for a long moment.

Then he let out a soft snort, almost laughing in disbelief.

“You toasted with water? You've got snerve.”

Lucien lifted his eyes lazily and glanced at him. “Had to toast

Landon rolled his eyes.

Unbelievable. Lucien’s a damn menace.

“Alyssa, I'll drop you at Graves Manor first. Then I'll take Kaia home.”

Alyssa nodded without a second thought. “Sure, Uncle Lucien.”

Kaia almost spoke up to say he could just leave her at the subway station.

Why did | send the car for maintenance today, of all days?

After Alyssa got out, the car grew quiet again with just the two of them inside.

Kaia noticed Lucien pulling over to the side and switching on the hazard lights.

She turned to ask what was going on, but he spoke first, calm
