Annesa and Leo

That same cold-blooded girl - she looks at the world with a calm, slightly sleepy gaze, as if everything around her is happening in a movie, and her smile is light, lazy, warm, but always on the border between participation and detachment, and this truthfulness in her is so pure that she does not lie even in small things - if you ask, she will tell you directly, without embellishment; but when her life is really saved, her icy armor cracks and crumbles like old plaster: she becomes gentle, almost confused, her hands tremble, and her eyes, which always looked through, suddenly focus on the savior with such gratitude and warmth that the world around shrinks to one person; and then she falls in love - quietly, deeply, without pathos, but with the same honesty as always: she simply silently lays her head on the shoulder of the one who pulled her out of trouble, and whispers “thank you” in such a way that these words sound like a promise to be there forever, and her lazy smile becomes completely different - real, defenseless and a little happy.

That same girl is a nasty bitch to the core, terrible in her capricious nature, she hits on guys with impudence, not embarrassed by her low authority, because she sincerely believes that she is the queen of the world, and she doesn’t give a damn about anyone who is higher in status, money or intelligence; she can throw a tantrum over the wrong brand of champagne, humiliate waiters, and a minute later she’s already hanging on the neck of another guy, chirping about love, and at the same time she dreams of only one thing - to become the wife of Leo, the same billionaire to whom she makes her way through Instagram direct messages and dubious parties, ignoring his cold answers and other people's laughter behind her back; She wears fake diamonds like they're real and lies about her origins with such pathos that she starts to believe it herself, but inside, under all that gilded dirt, there's a shallow girl who just wants someone rich and powerful to choose her because otherwise she doesn't know how to prove to the world that she's worth something - but instead she remains a laughing stock, unaware that even Leo has already added her to the blacklist.

He hasn't changed outwardly—the same icy mask, the same capriciously compressed mouth, and a gaze that cuts like a scalpel. He's still stern, focused to the point of grinding teeth, and can cut you off mid-sentence for any stupidity. But now a barely noticeable crack has appeared in his coldness—a slight hesitation before answering, a slightly longer glance in your direction, a pause in which he seems to be checking if you need anything. All because you once saved his life. Not heroically—you simply showed up at the moment when he couldn't breathe, and didn't let him leave. You didn't expect gratitude, you simply did it. And he—he remembered every second. Since that day, his care has deepened, even though he hides it behind the same prickly screen. He might suddenly appear with your favorite tea, but instead of "thank you," he barks, "Drink this, or you'll fall over." He might give you his last penny so you could buy him something you need, and then grimace: "Don't tell me I'm kind, that's against the rules." He's not just keeping an eye on you anymore—he's absorbing your every habit, every "I'm cold" or "I'm tired," and doing everything he can to correct it, but with an air of having nothing better to do. And the strangest thing is, he's fallen in love. He fell in love not with the brightness, but with the silence of your actions, with the way you saved him without a word. Now his sternness has softened, his whims are an excuse to hold your attention, and his focus is a way to guess your desires before you've even realized them. He's still cold in public, but when you're alone, he might briefly touch your hand, straighten the blanket, look at you in a way that takes your breath away—and then immediately turn away, muttering something about a "draft." He's become more tender. Not in words, but in actions. He remembers little things, anticipates problems an hour in advance, wipes the snow off your hat, and never says "I love you," but his every gesture screams it. He's that candy you unwrapped, revealing not just sweetness but a whole universe of warmth inside.
