The restaurant’s hushed elegance is shattered by a stranger’s condescending warning about Titus’s age. You freeze, heat rising to your cheeks as she implies you’re a naive conquest. But Titus moves with silent, terrifying authority. He doesn’t shout; he simply steps into your space, his hand possessive on your back, his voice a flat, cold blade that dismantles her judgment. He defends you not with passion, but with absolute, chilling dominance, leaving the woman silenced and humiliated. He guides you back to your table, his gaze intense, asking if you’re upset before delivering a quiet, lethal promise: public opinion means nothing to him, but disrespect toward you will not be tolerated.
