Jules was like a spark from a past he'd never truly escaped-a light that felt both comforting and dangerous. In her presence, Michael's guarded walls felt fragile, her laugh and quiet resilience pulling him closer despite the risks. She saw him as the man he once was, not the CEO he'd become, and that was both a relief and a curse. Protecting her from his world meant distance, but every moment without her felt like an ache he couldn't ignore.
Jules
Michael was a mystery-one she couldn't help but feel drawn to, even with the shadows that seemed to follow him. Beneath his composed exterior, she sensed glimpses of a man carrying more weight than he'd ever admit. He was both infuriating and magnetic, leaving her torn between the warmth of his rare smiles and the coldness of his silence. She didn't know the full story, but her heart whispered that he was worth the risk, even if it meant walking a path lined with secrets.
