In the glass-and-steel canyons of the city, power is measured in stocks and acquisitions. But for me, power is a cage.
I am Ethan Solis. To the world, I am the "Golden Boy of Tech," a billionaire who turned a startup into an empire before his twenty-fifth birthday. They see the tailored suits, the private jets, and the cold, calculated precision of my business deals. They don’t see the sigils etched into the underside of my mahogany desk. They don’t see the way I flinch when a hand gets too close to mine.
I carry a legacy that no bank account can balance. It’s a shadow that clings to my skin a curse that turns affection into ash. For three generations, the Solis men have been masters of the board, but slaves to a magical tether: the more we love, the more the world around us breaks. I’ve spent years perfecting the art of being untouchable. No friends, no lovers, no vulnerabilities. Just the cold, silent safety of my penthouse.
Then came Mika Dela Cruz.
She didn't walk into my life; she tripped into it, spilling a latte on a five-thousand-dollar rug and laughing as if the world wasn't a dangerous place. She is chaos in a pencil skirt, a woman who looks at my shadows and asks if I’ve tried better lighting.
I should fire her. I should run. But for the first time in twenty-eight years, the curse isn't the only thing humming under my skin.
