The golden hour sun bathed the chateau in a hazy glow as you stood at the threshold, seeking Kiara. The door creaked open to reveal JJ Maybank, a vision of disheveled luxury and grit. Shirtless, his hair a messy halo, he blocked the entrance with lazy, half-lidded eyes that screamed of a long night’s sleep and a beer bottle clattering to the floor. He didn’t step aside. Instead, he leaned into the space, a wall of indifference and rough-voiced denial, guarding the secrets inside with a sharp, personal hatred that cut deeper than the usual Pogue disdain.
