*BOOK-1* (Can be read as a standalone)
---------------------
"Some loves are quiet-not because they're uncertain, but because they're waiting for the right moment...
I think the most useful I've ever been in my life is right now... by bringing Nia on this vacation date with me.
The joy in her eyes is intoxicating. It warms my heart, fills me with pride, and makes me ache with affection all at once. Every time she smiles, every time she says she's enjoying herself, I fall more in love with her. I swear, I fall a little harder every single day.
Right now, we're in a perfume-making class. I booked a two-hour session so she could take her time, enjoy herself, and be immersed in the experience. I'm "participating" too, though really, I'm only half paying attention—my focus is entirely on her.
"Niko, smell this one," she said, pouring some of her freshly made perfume onto her wrist and holding it up to my nose.
It smells... like her.
Damn. Just sniffing it makes my mind wander. Shit. I might just have to steal it.
"It smells amazing. You did a great job, sweetheart," I said, trying to sound calm.
"I kn-know, right!" she exclaimed, giggling, her energy filling the entire room. She's radiant. Absolutely radiant.
"Work in progress," I muttered when she asked about my own perfume. I couldn't focus on it at all—too busy watching her.
"You're kind of a slow worker, you know that?" she teased.
"...Yeah, sure. Or maybe you'd like to follow Amelié to the back garden?" I asked, hoping to steal a little time for myself to actually work.
Oh, I can't concentrate on anything when she's around. My brain is completely hijacked.
Amelié offered to guide her, and Nia happily went, leaving me to my "work." I went through the process again, keeping a safer distance this time... and nearly lost my composure when I noticed her blush.
Code red. Stay cool.
After finishing, I proudly held up my perfume. "This smells nice," I said.
"I know, right," the staff member said. Bad vibes immediately.
"Thank you... wait—" I was cut off as she lunged at me.
Sweetheart, where are you? T-T
And like a superhero, Nia arrived, shoving the woman away.
"Who are you to touch my boyfriend?" she demanded, calm yet deadly.
"Someone better than you, obviously! I mean, he's Niko Volkov! Do you hear that name? Of course I deserve this man more than some... filthy girl!" she shouted.
I could barely believe this girl is mine.
"Don't bother with such people, sweetheart. Let's go," I said, pulling Nia into a protective hug.
Once calm, I offered, "Would you like to smell my perfume?"
"Yes! It smells just like you. I love it!" she squealed, snatching it away before anyone could intervene.
I sighed with a grin. She is mine. Completely. And if Eithan could see me now... he'd know just how untouchable we are together.
Then my phone vibrated. An unknown number:
If you want Nia to be safe, leave her before something terrible happens.
Another message:
Don't worry, you won't have Nia for much longer anyway... savour these few moments XD
My blood ran cold. Who the hell is this? Some prank? No—too coordinated, too threatening.
Could it be that girl from earlier? No way... she's just a beginner.
Or someone from Nia's side?
Before I could figure it out, Amelié ran up, panting.
"Somebody... took Nia—"
"WHAT?!"
"They... tried to stop them, but couldn't—"
"WHY DIDN'T I HEAR ANYTHING?!" I was panicking.
Amelié tried to continue, but I didn't care—I sprinted to my car, my mind in overdrive.
I cannot lose Nia. Not now. Not ever.
As soon as I reached the car, I dialed Eithan. I didn't even wait for him to speak.
"F-ING TRACK NIA'S PHONE! ASAP! SHE WAS KIDNAPPED!"
No time to waste. My Nia—my sweetheart—will be safe. I'll make sure of it, no matter what.
