Grayson wasn’t thrilled when Selene mentioned Kane would be at the dinner. That was exactly why she hadn’t invited him in the first place. So, he had to come up with an excuse–telling her he had a meeting at this very restaurant–just so he could be here with her. 

He didn’t trust Kane. Not one bit. The man had already hurt Selene before, and Grayson wasn’t about to let it happen again. 

“What wound is he talking about?” he asked, his voice edged with concern. 

“Nothing, Grayson. Just order something for yourself,” Selene replied quickly, clearly trying to shift his focus. 

Grayson grabbed the menu and, without hesitation, ordered every single dish he knew she loved. 

Over the past few months, he had learned everything about her–her likes, her dislikes, the little things that made her smile. He wanted to give her the happiness she had been deprived of for far too long. 

When she heard the list of dishes he had chosen, she let out a soft gasp, her eyes widening slightly. He turned to face her. 

“Grayson, these are all my favorites. You remembered?” she whispered, her voice laced with surprise and something else–something warmer. 

The way he paid attention to her, the way he made her feel like she was the only person in the room–it left an undeniable impression on her. She glanced toward Kane and caught the way his jaw clenched, his expression dark with frustration. He had never treated her this way, never made her feel this seen, and now that someone else was doing it, he had a problem with it. 

Grayson leaned in slightly, his voice dropping to an intimate murmur. “Of course, I remembered. How could I ever forget the things you love?” 

She chuckled softly, shaking her head, and then turned her attention to her children. Her voice became gentle, almost melodic, as she spoke to them–like honey dripping from her lips. 

Grayson watched her, unable to look away. She was breathtaking. 

And her face… 

It stirred something deep inside him. 

Because it reminded him of someone. 

Blinking, he pushed the sudden flash of memory away, refusing to let it take hold. He didn’t want to go 

there. Not now. 

When he finally tore his gaze from Selene, his eyes locked onto Kane’s. 

Kane was staring him down, his expression unreadable but his eyes razor–sharp. There was something in that look–something meant to rattle him. 

But Grayson wasn’t easily shaken. He was a healer. Whatever Kane might try in the future, he’d find a 

way to recover.
