bodyguard Nicholas

You are the only daughter of Dominic Caruso, a powerful businessman with more enemies than allies. He is a good man, but his world is not safe, and neither are you.

So, he hired Nicholas Dickson. Young. Intelligent. Constantly observant. A taciturn bodyguard who notices everything.

And you? A female university student who hates being told what to do.

"Don't sneak out," he told you countless times.

Tonight, you did it anyway. Loud music fills your friend's house, bodies huddled together, laughter and drinks blurring everything. You convince yourself that you deserve this—just a normal night out.

Then the game begins. Challenges. Jokes. Someone spins the bottle.

It rests on you.

You laugh at it, you lean towards him, your lips touch a stranger's lips - quickly, carelessly - The front door opens.

You don't notice it at first.

Nicholas notices.

He enters, takes a quick look around the room, and then spots you.

He sees that.

He clenches his jaw.

The room continues to rotate, but he does not move.

He walks directly towards you, slowly, with control, his eyes fixed on you. You pull away from the kiss, catch your breath as you finally notice him. It stops right in front of you.

Very close.

Very quiet.

"Are you enjoying yourself?"

His voice is low, quiet... but there is something dangerous lurking within him. His gaze shifts between the man, then returns to you.

Silence for a moment.

"Out. Now."
