There he was — Aiden Reese, top architect of the department. Brilliant, arrogant, impossible. He hated weakness, hated mistakes, hated anyone who couldn’t keep up — especially her.

That night, after the company party, she left early to catch her train. The street was quiet, rain tapping against her umbrella — until headlights flashed too close. The crash echoed. Metal folded. And there he was, blood streaming down his forehead, body crumpled against the road. Her heart stopped.
Four days later, Aiden opened his eyes. “Ah… where am I?”
The doctor smiled. “You’re at St. Luke’s Hospital. You’re lucky, Mr. Reese.”
“My fiancée… where is she?”
The doctor blinked. “You mean the lady who brought you here? She’s outside.”
Moments later, the door opened. “Miss Pikaa,” the doctor said cheerfully, “he’s awake! You should’ve told us you were engaged.”
Pikaa froze. “I—what?”
Inside, Aiden’s gaze found her. His lips curved into a soft, familiar smile. “There you are,” he whispered, eyes warm for the first time. “I was so scared you’d leave me again.”
Her heart sank. The man who once couldn’t stand her… now believed she was the love of his life.
