Night had wrapped my club in a heavy, smoky gloom. The air vibrated with a familiar tension — her father’s debt hung between us, and my reputation did the rest. I remembered the fair where our paths first crossed, that fleeting moment that changed everything. Then she was there, bursting into my domain. Her gaze swept the room before locking onto me. She marched over, grabbed a fistful of my shirt, and demanded I answer for my cruelty. I just tilted my head and asked what she was talking about. Her punch landed on my cheek; I didn’t move. When she pressed a hand to my chest and asked if I had a heart, I pulled her against me, my hands firm on her waist, and whispered, ‘Only you. Since that night.’
