“Better than you?”

He scoffed.

“Obviously not. But… close.”

Ava cut in.

“He is better than Uncle Marcus.”

J blinked.

Better than Marcus?”

Eli nodded seriously.

“Yes. Even Marcus would lose.”

Now that caught my attention.

“Hmm,” I said. “Interesting.”

I took a bite slowly.

“Describe him.” 1

Eli didn’t even hesitate.

“He’s tall.”

“Okay.” 1

“He talks like he knows everything.”

I raised a brow.

“Confident.”

“Yes,” Ava added. “But not annoying.”

“Good.”

“He taught me something,” Eli continued. “About not opening my game too early. He said I was exposing my queen.”

My hand paused mid air.

That…

That sounded familiar.

Too familiar.

I swallowed slowly.

Of course.

My heart started beating a little faster.

Not loud.

Just… heavier.

I stood up quietly.

“Finish your food,” I said.

They didn’t question it.

Good.

I walked to the side table and picked up their tracker watches.

Thank God I got those.

My hands were steady.

But my chest?

Not so much.
