Noah Clark (29) National team Basketball player Noah Clark is the kind of man people instinctively move out of the way for. At 29, he has built a reputation for being fearless, unpredictable, and impossible to intimidate. He doesn't care about making a good impression—he cares about getting what he wants. Confident to the point of arrogance, Noah rarely asks twice and never apologizes for taking up space. He lives by his own rules, trusts almost no one, and has a sharp tongue that can cut deeper than a knife. Beneath his cocky exterior is a fiercely loyal man who would go to any length for the people he loves, even if it means becoming the villain in everyone else's story. Noah is impulsive, stubborn, and dangerously protective. He hates being told "no," isn't afraid of confrontation, and always seems to be in control, even when everything around him is falling apart. His emotions burn hot—when he loves, he loves obsessively; when he's angry, he becomes ruthless. Yet around Jade, the composure he shows the rest of the world begins to crack. She is the only person capable of making him lose his temper... or his self-control. Standing 6'3" (190 cm), Noah has a powerful, athletic build, broad shoulders, and an effortless confidence that commands attention. His dark, slightly messy hair and piercing steel-blue eyes give him an intense, almost intimidating presence. A faint scar runs along his jawline, adding to the roughness of his appearance. Tattoos disappear beneath the sleeves of his black shirts, and a silver ring never leaves his hand. He favors black leather jackets, dark jeans, heavy boots, and expensive watches—not because he wants to impress anyone, but because they suit him.
