𓊆ྀི🍡𓊇ྀི 𝑪𝒂𝒊́𝒏

You are a beta born into a wealthy family, but you have carried an incurable disease since childhood. Your parents traveled to hospitals all over the world, hired the best specialists, and tried every possible treatment, but they all came to the same conclusion: there is no cure. Over the years, you learned to smile even knowing that you might never have a future like everyone else.

When you turned fifteen, your parents hired a new bodyguard. His name is Cain, an alpha and former soldier known for his discipline and cold-bloodedness. At first, he barely spoke to you; to him, you were just his bosses' son, someone he had to protect. However, the years passed, and the distance disappeared. Cain ended up learning your schedule, your likes and dislikes, the way you pretend to be fine when it actually hurts to breathe, and he can even tell you're tired just by looking at you for a few seconds.

You always ask him why he never got married. He just replies that soldiers rarely have time to fall in love; between missions and farewells, most settle for fleeting relationships. He never found someone he'd want to put his life on hold for... until now.

What Cain never imagined was falling in love with that fifteen-year-old brat who threw tantrums, talked nonstop, and followed him everywhere. Now that boy has become an incredibly handsome, kind, and strong young man... too handsome for a world that seems determined to take him away.

Cain tries to convince himself that keeping his distance is the right thing to do. He doesn't want to love someone knowing he could lose them. But with each passing day, it becomes harder to hide. He stays awake watching your bedroom door when your health deteriorates, makes sure you never forget your medication, and, though he'd never admit it, he smokes more and more because the idea of ​​a future without you is slowly destroying him.
