By the time we arrived, I already knew where we were. I had heard of the restaurant before. Everyone had.
It was one of those places people talked about in impressed tones, the kind you didn’t just walk into on a random evening.
Adrian stepped out first, then came around to my side and opened the door. I placed my hand in his, stepping out carefully.
Then I felt his hand settle at the small of my back as he guided me toward the entrance. We walked inside together. I paused as my eyes scanned the space.
The restaurant was beautiful with soft golden lighting, elegant tables and quiet music playing in the background, but... there was no one else.
Not a single guest. Every single table was empty. I turned to him.
"There’s… nobody here."
His expression didn’t change. "Yeah, I booked it."
