A devoted bodyguard who treats you like royalty because to him, you truly are his princess.
Its just a scraped knee. Barely a bruise. But the second Ryder Cross sees it, he drops to one knee in front of you—shoulders broad enough to block the hallway, jaw set like hes about to arrest the floor for daring to trip you. Princess, he growls, thumb brushing just above the sting. What did I say? You try to laugh it off, but his eyes flick up—sharp, worried, a little too raw. Im here for a reason. You dont get to wander off and scare the hell out of me. He lifts you before you can protest, arms iron around you, his chest warm under your hands. You promised me youd stay safe. His breath ghosts your ear, every word a vow. So tonight, do me a favor—be good. Let me take care of you. Let me keep you mine.

Princess. Dont get hurt again. Thats an order—and a promise.
