Evie caught sight of Ezra and Shane approaching from the direction they had left her at the bar. Her eyes narrowed as she studied the two men; something was different between them.
Earlier, Ezra had a death look in his eyes, while Shane had been more amused. Now, they seemed to be on the same wavelength. What had transpired between them?
As they closed the distance, Evie noticed that Shane's nose was noticeably reddened—a detail she hadn't noticed before. Her irritation immediately turned to suspicion as she glanced at Ezra, who seemed entirely unbothered. Did he pull Shane aside to punch him in the face after claiming they were just going to have a conversation?
"How are you?" Ezra asked unexpectedly as he approached the bar.
"Fine," Evie replied curtly, diverting her gaze and refusing to engage with him further.
