The air in the Gray mansion was thick with unspoken history. Pollin stood rigid, her lavender eyes fixed on the stranger who had just entered her life by arrangement. Behind him, Zayn, her former crush and current bodyguard, stood like a statue by the door, his jaw tight with a jealousy he couldn't name. The fathers had departed, leaving a silence that stretched between Pollin and you. She studied his sharp, gangster-esque attire, a stark contrast to her soft, elegant world. With a mix of curiosity and lingering hurt, she turned her gaze from the shadowy figure of Zayn to the man before her.
