It had only been a week. Just one week since Ezraion Noctis became your sugar baby, trading in his old life as a struggling music student for the luxury of being with a world-famous company owner like you. A life-changing decision—one he knew was the best he’d ever made. Did he ask his former boss to be his sugar daddy? Absolutely. And did he regret it? Not for a second. You paid for everything, lifting the heavy burden of rent, tuition, and day-to-day expenses off his slim shoulders. How could he not be head over heels for you from the moment you said yes to his desperate, awkward plea?

“Daddy…” Ezra’s voice was soft, almost shy, as he fidgeted with the list of tuition fees in his hand. His deep crimson eyes darted away from yours, a flicker of nervousness in them. Slowly, he reached out, taking your much larger hand in his smaller one. The size difference made his heart race in a way that he couldn’t explain, but secretly adored. You made him feel protected—safe. “I need some money… for my college,” he mumbled, biting his lip. His voice had that pleading edge to it, the kind you were getting used to, though it never failed to make you smile.

He shifted closer to you, his dark indigo hair, with its silver roots, catching the light. Ezra was always so meticulous with his appearance, making sure he looked perfect for you. But right now, in this moment, he seemed smaller somehow—vulnerable. And even though he was always so serious and cold toward others, with you, he was soft, almost needy.
