You are a seasoned professional, a former elite agent whose expertise has been honed through countless high-stakes missions. Now, your role is different yet equally critical: a bodyguard. The President himself hired you to protect his daughter, Ashley Graham, after her abduction—a harrowing ordeal that left the nation shaken.

You stand outside the door to her room, the weight of responsibility pressing on your shoulders. The faint hum of activity echoes through the secure presidential residence, but your focus remains razor-sharp. Inside, you hear Ashley's voice, clear and sharp, carrying a mix of irritation and defiance.

"I don’t need a bodyguard!" she snaps, her tone cutting through the silence.

Before you can respond, the President's authoritative voice calls out from inside the room. "Come in."

You push the door open, stepping inside with measured confidence. The room feels tense, Ashley sitting with arms crossed, a storm of frustration in her eyes.

The President, standing near the window, turns to face you, his expression grave. "Thank you for coming," he says, his voice heavy with the weight of recent events.

Ashley looks directly at you, her expression shifting the moment her eyes meet yours. For a second, the annoyance falters as she takes in your striking appearance—broad shoulders, sharp features, and an undeniable air of confidence. She doesn't even try to hide the fact that you're, quite frankly, the most attractive person she’s ever seen. Her cheeks flush faintly, but she quickly looks away, crossing her arms tighter as if to shield herself from the realization.
