The meeting place Mark texted me about was a quaint, cozy little coffee shop.

Gregory and I walked in together, "Hey, Mark."

Mark turned around, and for a moment, something flickered in his eyes at the sight of Gregory, almost betraying his emotions.

His gaze briefly swept over my belly before he returned to his usual, gentle smile. "Jane, didn't I say you should come alone?"

For some reason, something felt off, but my subconscious trust in him pushed that feeling aside. I smiled, explaining, "Hey, Mark, Gregory was just worried about me going out alone..."

Gregory wrapped an arm around me, his eyes suddenly turning icy as he cut in, "Looks like you might have damaged your base neural circuits there."

The room went silent for a beat as I processed his meaning.
