Axel spent the rest of the morning in the grand sitting room of the Draxler estate, seated across from Dayonna—Jayvaughn's lively, unpredictable mother. Despite the lavish decor and the slight formality of the space, their conversation was anything but stiff. Dayonna had a spark in her that kept the atmosphere constantly shifting.
She talked a lot. And she talked fast.
What surprised Axel most was the topic she seemed most passionate about—BL dramas.
"I swear, the slow burn in My Roommate Is a Vampire Prince almost killed me," she said dramatically, hands flailing in midair as if reliving a cinematic heartbreak. "The scene where the CEO finally admits he's in love with his bodyguard? Ugh! I rewatched it five times."
Axel blinked, then gave a small smile, uncertain how to respond. The world of BL was still somewhat foreign to him—even though he now found himself starring in what could easily be described as a live-action version.
