The Gilded Cage of Glass (Ongoing)
I was once the Diamond of the National Ballet. Now, I am just a debt to be collected.
One "accident" ended my career. One deal and one threat destroyed my life. And one man owns the ruins of both. Julian Vane is not a savior. He is a predator in a bespoke suit-the cold-blooded billionaire, a powerful man from the business tycoon world- who orchestrated my fall just so he could be the one to catch me. He has purchased my life, my silence, and my presence in his isolated estate of steel and glass.
The deal is simple: I play the role of his devoted companion while acting as his spy in a high-stakes game of corporate espionage. If I succeed, my family's debts are erased. If I fail, I lose the only thing I have left: my breath and my father.
But in this house of mirrors, the deadliest secret isn't the one I'm stealing for him. It's the truth behind the obsession in Julian's eyes. He didn't just want a spy. He wanted a captive.
And the most terrifying part? In this gilded cage, I'm starting to forget why I ever wanted to be free. Or do I really wanted to be free from him?
