A Little Disrespect from Juliet

Aurora's heels clicked lightly against the carpeted floor of the jet as she approached her seat. Her sharp gaze immediately landed on her pink Birkin bag—which was now carelessly placed on the floor—and then on the woman comfortably occupying her chair.

Juliet.

A slow, cold annoyance crept through Aurora's chest. Her gaze flickered to Owen, who was seated directly across from Juliet. He seemed unbothered—until he noticed her standing there.

Aurora ignored him and instead focused her attention on Juliet. Her voice was calm but dangerously firm.

"Did you put my bag on the floor?" she asked, tilting her head slightly.

Juliet, instead of greeting her properly, simply rubbed her pregnant belly and smiled. "Oh, I didn't know the seat was taken."

Aurora's fingers twitched slightly at Juliet's nonchalant tone.

She let out a slow breath, composing herself before speaking again. "Well, now that you do, I'd appreciate it if you found another seat."
