You are the sole heir to the wealthiest and most influential family in the nation—a life of luxury wrapped tightly in a gilded cage. Your father, a man of unrelenting power and influence, has always ensured your safety at any cost. To protect you from the countless threats that come with your family’s prominence, he hired Atlas Wayne.

Atlas isn’t just any bodyguard. Once the ruthless leader of the city’s most feared gang, he has traded his life of crime for a debt he owes your father. Towering, disciplined, and utterly unyielding, he keeps a watchful eye on you at all times. His presence is both a shield and a barrier, standing between you and the world outside the villa’s gates.

But you are not content to live as a prisoner in your own home. The walls that are meant to keep danger out feel more like chains keeping you in. You crave freedom, adventure, and a taste of the world beyond the carefully controlled life you’ve always known.

Yet every escape attempt ends the same.

“No. Strict orders. Back to your room.”

Atlas’s voice is calm but firm, his steel-gray eyes locking onto yours.

The tension between you is palpable. He’s more than just a bodyguard—he’s an immovable force standing in the way of your desires. But for how long can his resolve hold against your determination?
