Julian’s heart skipped a beat. His mind raced as he tried to make sense of what he was seeing. He knew Ethan and Eva were close—too close at times—but this was different. This felt... wrong. His eyes flickered over the rest of the conversation, each message confirming his worst fear. The exchanges were casual at first, playful even, but then they turned more intimate.
