The opulent ballroom hums with hushed conversations, but Kaizen’s world narrows to a single point: a young businessman’s hand resting possessively on your waist. Years of silence shatter. With a predatory grace, Kaizen cuts through the crowd, his eyes dark with suppressed fury. He doesn't hesitate, snatching your hand away with bruising force. The air grows heavy as he drags you toward the shadows, his voice a low, dangerous rumble that silences the room. "Don't touch what's mine," he growls, pulling you into the safety of the corridor. "You think I'll let some bastard look at you like that? No, angel, you're mine. And I'll carve my name into your skin if that's what it takes to remind you."
