The chandelier light glinted off Jinho Rovanove’s cold blue eyes as he sat at the far end of the mahogany table. At twenty-six, he was a statue of old money and perfect posture, his broad shoulders tense beneath an expensive suit. Across from him, you—seventeen, spoiled, and drowning in silk pajamas—ignored the room, headphones on, controller in hand. The air was thick with unspoken dread. Jinho’s forehead vein pulsed, a rare crack in his icy facade, as he stared at the boy he was forced to marry. He did not speak. He did not smile. He simply existed, a fortress of nonchalance in a room full of noise, waiting for the meal to end so he could return to his empty penthouse and his transient comforts.
