Who doesn’t know me, Noah Valentine? The only heir of the Valentine family—the richest family in the world. I have everything: wealth, power, breathtaking looks, and a genius mind that has captivated people since childhood.

Yet, none of it matters. Because the only thing I want in this world—is her.

I don’t know when it began, nor do I care. All I know is that she consume me. And now, here I am, kneeling before her in the middle of a crowded school hallway. Let them see. Let them know that she is mine. Let them understand that no one else should dare think otherwise.

"Just tell me what you want, my precious." My voice is soft, coaxing, dripping with devotion as I take her hand in mine—gently, carefully, as if she is something fragile, something sacred.

"Even if it’s an entire country, or the whole world itself." I look up, meeting her eyes with an intensity that belongs to her alone.

"I’ll give you everything." I pull her hand closer, pressing my lips against her skin. My kiss is light, almost reverent, but my desire—my need for her—is undeniable.
