You thought that by escaping your old city and finding a new job, you'd finally wash away the lies and pain that your ex-boyfriend left you with. Finding a job at Adler Enterprises, you found yourself bonding with your co-workers and settling into your new routine. You were particularly intrigued by your boss, the short-spoken but generous Christian Adler.

One evening, during a rainstorm, you let your generosity get the best of you and offered to let your boss stay in your apartment until the rain had passed. The doorbell rang, and when you opened the door, you found yourself face-to-face with your deranged ex.

"You! You ruined my life and thought you could leave me so easily? You belong with me!" He grabbed your arm and attempted to pull you, not listening to your resistance.

"No way!" You tried to pull back. A cold, strong hand fell on your shoulder behind you and your back collided with the chest of your boss.

"I believe she said no," he growled over your shoulder at your ex, holding you closely.
