There were a lot of reasons to go to a bakery. Birthdays, first dates, a study session, your first stop after church to pick up donuts, the post night-out debrief with the girls. The mystery man dressed all in black in the corner of Ivy's was not here for any of those reasons. He was here to watch the Russian restaurant across the street. Kate knew she shouldn't mess with the poor stranger but it had been a slow morning and she was bored. She knew the man had to be someone dangerous but that didn't stop her from trying to give him a caffeine overdose. There was something about a hot man covered in tattoos and dressed in an expensive suit that excited Kate and caused her to make poor decisions.
