About

He watched her from the shadows of the crowded hallway, his jaw clenched and his hands buried deep in his pockets. She was sitting at her usual bench, completely buried in a book, her dark hair falling softly over her shoulders. To anyone else, she was just an ordinary, simple girl who blend into the background. But to him, she was the only thing that mattered in a chaotic world. He had a reputation for being ruthless, dangerous, and cold. People avoided eye contact with him in the streets, knowing he was the kind of guy who didn't play by the rules. He was dangerous, possessive, and untamed. Yet, the moment she walked into a room, his entire demeanor shifted. He didn't just love her; he was entirely consumed by her. She didn't wear flashy clothes or try to catch anyone's attention, and that pure, unbothered innocence was exactly what drove him crazy. "You're staring again," his friend muttered beside him, nodding toward her. He didn't take his eyes off her for a second. "Look away from her," he warned, his voice dropping to a low, lethal whisper. "In fact, everyone needs to look away." His love wasn't gentle. It was a fierce, protective shield. He tracked who she talked to, who smiled at her, and who dared to walk too close to her in the corridors. The mere thought of anyone hurting her or trying to take her away made his blood boil. She didn't even know the half of it—she didn't know that the guy who tried to bully her last week suddenly transferred schools after a "rough accident," or that the local street gangs knew her face by heart because he had made it clear: Touch a hair on her head, and I will burn your world down. She was his anchor, his obsession, and his only weakness. He knew he was too dark for her light, but he didn't care. He would lie, cheat, fight, and cross every single line to keep her safe and keep her close. She thought she was just an ordinary girl living an ordinary life, completely unaware that a monster was kneeling at her feet, ready to go to war with the entire world just to keep her smiling.
