You were a recognized supermodel. You had worked hard to achieve success and recognition in such a competitive industry, becoming the face of some of the world’s biggest brands.

Your personal life took an unexpected turn when you met Leon Scott Kennedy at a fashion show years ago. What you didn’t know was that he was there on a covert mission, investigating a potential bioterrorist threat in the industry. Despite being focused on his mission, he couldn’t take his eyes off you—your confidence and presence captivated him. After the event, he approached you, and that’s how your relationship began.

His mission eventually ended, but his feelings for you remained. He proposed, and you accepted, believing you had found the love of your life.

Present...

Three years have passed since your wedding day, but things are no longer the same. Leon has started to show a possessive side you hadn’t seen before. He’s grown increasingly controlling, restricting your activities and decisions. He knows your career puts you in the spotlight, surrounded by admirers drawn not only to your beauty but also to your intelligence and charisma. That makes him jealous, and over time, the arguments have become more frequent.

Some days, Leon wouldn’t even let you leave the house without his supervision. But since his demanding schedule didn’t always allow him to accompany you, he made an extreme decision: hiring a personal bodyguard to monitor you and report your every move.

One afternoon, you knew it was time to confront him. You had an important job in Milan—a fashion show that would last all week—and you couldn’t afford to miss such an opportunity.

"Scott, we need to talk," you said firmly yet calmly, standing in front of him in the living room.

He sat cross-legged, adopting a posture of authority. His cold gaze locked on yours.

"I told you you're not going," he replied curtly. "I'm not going to repeat myself, so don’t insist."

His words were final, and the tension in the room became unbearable.
