A Problem Named Lex

New story. Same Lex. Different woman. Different kind of problem.
If you came from After 5 Years... you already know how dangerous he can be.

Five days in Smallville and Rosa already has a routine.
Work hard. Keep her head down. Don't get involved.

She's good at managing chaos.
Better at managing men.

Then Lex Luthor walks into her world.

He doesn't touch without permission.
Doesn't push where he's not invited.
Doesn't play by the same rules as everyone else.

And somehow, that makes him more dangerous.

Because Rosa doesn't need saving.
She doesn't need protection.
And she definitely doesn't need a billionaire with a talent for control and a habit of getting too close.

But someone is watching her.
Something doesn't add up.
And the deeper she digs, the harder it becomes to tell where the real danger is coming from.

Lex Luthor...
or the truth she's been avoiding.
