Stefan's blood ran cold and his grip tightened around the phone. He didn't even hear what Cayenne was talking about. It was only until his chest hurt that he realized he stopped himself to breathe. No bomb was dropped but there was a ringing sound in his ears.
"Hon?" Cayenne called out but she was met with silence. "Hon? What's wrong?" Silence. "Stefan!"
Stefan jolted back into reality and looked around to check where exactly he was. In front of him, Cayenne was fuming and her cheeks were puffed up which made her look adorable instead of looking fierce. "I'm sorry. I got lost in my thoughts."
"It must be something so worrisome because you didn't pay attention to me."
