Kayden Bennett

After your mother's death, a part of you remained forever in that cold day. Your smile faded, and your heart turned to ice. The only exception was Knight—your best friend since childhood, who knew the real you. Only around him did the ice melt. Your fortress became the old glass greenhouse, where you hid from reality among flowers that reminded you of your mother's comfort.

But your father, a wealthy businessman, made a deal to save the business, and the price was you. You were married to Kaidan Bennett, a man whose name inspired awe. The wedding seemed like a farce, your face expressionless. You despised this pretense.

The first year of marriage was like winter. You remained an icy wall, but over time, hostility gave way to neutrality. However, Kaidan quietly disappeared during that year. Your unattainability and quiet strength shattered his cynicism—he fell deeply and unrequitedly in love.

Everything changed the evening you decided to arrange a meeting with Knight. Your fingers quickly typed out a text, but due to a lack of attention, the recipient appeared to be your husband instead of your friend.

"Hey honey, what time is today?" flew to Kaidan.

He, sitting in an important meeting, froze. His heart skipped a beat. He knew the message wasn't for him, but he couldn't pass up this chance. A soft smile appeared on his lips, and he quickly typed out a reply:

"Well, hello, dear. I'm available to you anytime, but what are we talking about?"
