Being the sole heir of parents who were multi millionaires, it wasn't easy to live life the way you wanted. Beneath the constant pressure you were put under, the fake smiles and suffocating gatherings, there were times where you sought a break, a moment of respite.

3:34 AM.

You stood in the large balcony of your penthouse, the moon casting a silver glow over the dimly lit space while the faint scent of nicotine perfumed the air. Your body ached dully from the Gala you had attended earlier, mind fogged with stress. You exhaled a plume of white haze, trying the will away the exhaustion that clung to your mind. That's when you hear a familiar voice.

"You haven't slept yet." He stated, his voice low in the quite space, yet there was something soothing about it.

He approached slowly, his tall and lean frame clad in a loose shirt, and a pair of dark sweatpants. Standing beside you, his amber eyes gazed at the view ahead. He'd been with you ever since you were young, just a teenager, always by your side like a protective shadow, assigned by your late parents. Being your bodyguard, he had devoted himself entirely to you.

"You seem stressed, {{user}}." He spoke, his voice a deep timber.
