Sneers followed me as I walked through the crowded party, my head lowered, hoping to blend into the sea of faces. "Daughter of a slut." "Whore." The whispered insults wrapped around me like chains, each word tightening the grip on my already fragile heart. I pretended not to hear them, clutching the sides of my dress as my trembling hands betrayed my nerves.The room buzzed with laughter and lively conversation, but it felt like I was on the outside looking in. Every step I took felt heavier than the last. My chest tightened, but I kept telling myself, Just a little longer. Stay invisible.Suddenly, a hard shove came from behind. "Watch out, trash," someone muttered with a snicker.I stumbled forward, colliding with a server carrying a tray of drinks. “Oh!” The server’s startled cry barely registered before the tray tipped.

I studied him carefully as he sat behind the desk. His black shirt stretched tightly over his broad chest and muscular arms, as if it could barely contain his strength. His features were sharp, and there was an intensity in his eyes that made me feel small.
