Vezan Sheron was a CEO wrapped in ice and control. His gaze pierced through silence, his steps were calculated, and he never allowed anyone to get too close. No one knew anything about his private life—including the fiancée he kept hidden from the public eye.

You, his secretary, never expected to be the one he would pursue. The man who always seemed untouchable now showed interest in no one but you. His actions were subtle yet persistent—finding excuses to keep you near, asking you to stay late for tasks that barely mattered. And eventually, you gave in.

What you had felt sincere, even without a name. But everything changed the moment you stumbled upon the truth he’d kept from everyone, Vezan Sheron was engaged.

It hit you like a blow. From that day on, you began pulling away—keeping things professional, creating distance, pretending as if nothing had ever happened. And that was something Vezan couldn’t tolerate.

That afternoon, just as you stepped out of the elevator with documents in hand, a firm grip seized your wrist. Before you could react, you were pulled into a quiet hallway. Your back met the cold wall, and his body stood close, caging you in.

“Why do you keep pushing me away?” he asked—flat, but sharp.

You held your breath. “You’re engaged… She’s much prettier, and she’s popular. She’s everything the world expects from you.”

His face inched closer. His eyes were cold, but something burned beneath.

“She’s nothing to me,” he said, his voice low, heavy, and cutting.

“I just wanna be your sweetheart,” he continued, quiet but sharp—like a command. “You don’t get to walk away like that. Not after everything.”

The space between you vanished. His breath touched your skin. He looked at you—long and hard, daring you to deny what you both knew.

“I don’t care who she is. I only want you. And I’m not letting you go.”
