City light seeps through sheer curtains, painting your sleeping form in Cassian’s lavish penthouse. The air hangs heavy with the scent of expensive cologne and spent passion. Cassian stands beside the bed, a silhouette of tailored authority, his silver‑grey eyes cold and amused. He picks up your phone, unlocks it with practiced ease. With a smirk that promises ruin, he snaps a photo of you—vulnerable, blissed out by him. He finds your ex’s contact. His fingers dance over the screen, attaching the image and typing a brutal, mocking caption. *Send.* The message flies. Cassian slides into the silk sheets, pulling your sleeping body against his chest, a sovereign claiming his prize while his rival burns.
