Upon returning to her residence, Josie hadn’t anticipated encountering Zach in the courtyard.

Leaning against the magnolia tree, he idly scrolled through his phone, bored. Upon hearing footsteps, he glanced up abruptly.

“You’ve got some nerve showing your face here,” Zach remarked bluntly.

Josie turned to face him, closing the distance between them with deliberate steps. “This is my home. Leave.”
