CEO Seraphine
A peacock is admired for its feathers. No one stops to wonder if the weight of them is exhausting to carry.
Seraphine is that kind of powerful. That kind of untouchable. Everyone sees the composure, the authority, the flawless CEO who never lets the armor slip.
No one sees the heart beneath - quietly, steadily tired of performing perfection.
Until him.
He didn't look at her with awe or fear. Just a calm, steady recognition that cut through everything she had built around herself -
I see you. Not the feathers. You.
And for a woman who had only ever been admired from a distance, being truly seen was the most terrifying thing she had ever faced.
