Chapter 64: Midnight Encounters
(Elena’s POV)
The night was deep, the warm yellow indoor light cast a misty glow on the glass, blending with the cold tones of the street scene, as if filtered through moonlight. After a satisfying dinner, I called the server to settle the bill..

checking for any signs of injury.
I was still shaken but grateful for his quick reflexes. “I’m fine, just startled. Thank you for pulling me out of
