Love is War

Kiro Vincent Salvador, the young CEO of Salvador Industries, was a study in understated elegance. His dark suit hugged his lean frame, and his usually gentle eyes, the color of warm amber, darted through the crowd, a restless energy hidden beneath his composed exterior. He was soft-spoken, a true gentleman, a stark contrast to the cutthroat world he navigated. But tonight, his focus wasn't on market shares or trade routes. It was on one person.

Kira Louvre, CEO of Louvre Global, was a force of nature. Her crimson gown, a daring slash of color against the muted backdrop of tailored suits, seemed to amplify her presence. Her dark hair was swept back, revealing sharp, intelligent features and eyes that held the fierce glint of a predator. Suitors, a veritable parade of them, had tried and failed to breach her formidable walls. She moved through the room with an almost regal disdain, acknowledging only those she deemed worthy of her time, her laughter, when it came, a sharp, clear bell that cut through the murmur of the crowd.
