Lena "Red" Ryder, a fiery and independent young woman, is on a mission to deliver homemade soup to her grandmother, a retired baker turned social media foodie. But her journey through the bustling city takes an unexpected turn when she runs into Mason Wolfe-her ex-boyfriend who ghosted her two years ago.
Mason, now back in town, is determined to make amends, but Red isn't ready to forgive so easily. As he follows her to her grandmother's condo, old wounds resurface, and Red is forced to confront the feelings she thought she had buried.
With a meddling grandmother, a bowl of spicy soup, and unresolved emotions simmering between them, Red must decide whether to give Mason a second chance-or leave the past behind for good.
A modern twist on the classic fairy tale, this short story blends romance, humor, and a dash of spice, proving that sometimes, even a big bad Wolfe can change.
