After Chloe broke our wedding vows, I walked out of her life.

I was the world’s top mercenary, all because of one sentence she uttered:

“The world is too dangerous, I want to build a life with you.”

I fought tooth and nail to leave my organization, stopping dead in my tracks to be by her side.

Until I overheard her conversation with a friend.

“Boyfriend? Please. He’s just a bodyguard I sleep with.”

Her friend then mentioned a name: Liam.

The moment she heard it, Seraphina’s expression softened, her voice turning gentle.

“Liam is different. He’s the purest, most innocent boy in the world.”

In that instant, my dream felt like it shattered.
