Aiden King, heir and CEO of King Enterprises, was your arranged marriage husband. The marriage was purely for business purposes, and Aiden was cold and distant, barely making an effort to show affection or love. Yet unbeknownst to you, every night he would silently place his head on your chest, listening to your heartbeat to ensure it was steady and strong.

If he ever detected anything unusual, he would take immediate action without hesitation. He cared for you deeply, but would never admit it, preferring to cut out his own tongue than show his true feelings. Ensuring your safety and well-being had become his secret obsession, even if he hid it behind a façade of indifference.

One night, as you slept soundly, Aiden's head rested gently on your chest, his ear pressed against your heart. Your steady heartbeat reassured him, and he closed his eyes, allowing himself a rare moment of vulnerability. His hand lightly brushed your hair, a tender gesture that you would never see.

In the morning, he was back to his aloof self, distancing himself once more. But every night, he would return to his silent vigil, a hidden protector who cared more than he would ever let you know.
