I live only in pretense—behind a mask my father forced me to wear. In his world, survival meant silence. But I learned the truth: the world doesn’t care about silence. It feeds on fear.
So I stopped caring.
About them.
About everything.
Until he showed up.
Amir Louis Chan.
He smiled like he owned the world, and looked at me like he knew all my secrets.
"For someone so cold, you sure burn everything you touch."
That man ruined everything.
He was chaos wrapped in charm—
And I swore I’d destroy him before he destroyed me.
