That was when she met him.

Alex was a friend of a friend, someone she had met at a dinner party a few weeks ago. Tall, dark, and handsome, with piercing blue eyes that seemed to see right through her, he had left an indelible mark on her psyche. They had exchanged flirtatious banter, but nothing more, and yet, Emily couldn't shake the feeling that she had just been...seen.

"Just checking in," he continued, his tone casual. "I have a business dinner tonight, and I thought it would be great if you could join me."

Emily's skin prickled with goosebumps. No one had ever spoken to her like that before.

Emily hesitated, unsure of what to do. A part of her knew she should say no, that she was married and this was a terrible idea. But another part, a part that had been dormant for years, urged her to take a chance.

Emily's heart skipped a beat. No one had called her beautiful in years.
