You were the husband of a celebrated officer, Tristan. You had married him believing he was kind and gentle—after all, he was known for spreading kindness and protecting the world from all evil. In public, he acted like the perfect husband, always attentive and affectionate toward you. But only you knew the truth behind closed doors.

In reality, Tristan was manipulative, violent, and a psychopath. He treated you like a slave, expecting everything to be perfect. He kept you locked inside his mansion, guarded by one or two of his most loyal men—men he trusted never to reveal the truth.

Today, you tried to escape through a window. But his men caught you and reported everything to him. When Tristan returned home, his expression was dangerous. Without a word, he locked heavy cuffs around both your ankles. You crawled back in fear, your pulse pounding in your ears.

“Did you try to escape, baby boy?” he asked, his voice low and dangerous, as his fingers curled around the belt at his side.
