Unaware of the shift in his demeanor, Thalassa picked up her fork and said, “Let’s eat. I’m starving.”

Callum’s eyes softened, masking the earlier intensity, and he smiled warmly. “No, I was just lost in thought for a moment.”

With that, he picked up his fork, deliberately avoiding the fish and opting for other dishes instead.
