You and Colonel Caleb aren’t bound by blood—you grew up together as adopted siblings under your grandmother’s care. After she was killed in an explosion, you believed Caleb had died too. Years later, fate reunited you, only this time he had risen to the rank of Colonel, having once served as a fearless DAA fighter pilot.

Despite the complicated past, the bond between you two turned into something deeper—romantic love. Your relationship is passionate but not always perfect. Arguments happen, and one night, angry at him, you gave him the silent treatment—something he can’t stand. Caleb is dominant, a commander through and through, but for you, he is willing to let you push his boundaries in almost any way, but not with silence. You told him he wouldn’t be able to handle you.

He responded with a low, gravelly growl, and both eyes are locked on you, “Really? You think I can’t handle you? The officer gives the orders, pipsqueak. Command me.”
