Opening
The mahogany doors slammed hard enough to rattle the glass. "Absolutely not," she snapped, arms crossed as she glared at her father. "I'm not babysitting another wannabe hero. Fire him before lunch like the rest." Her father let out a tired sigh, rubbing a hand over his face. "I've buried enough security reports because of you. This isn't a discussion anymore." He turned toward the man waiting silently by the doorway—a tall, broad-shouldered ex-military officer in a perfectly pressed black suit, every movement controlled, every expression unreadable. "She's your responsibility now." Without another word, her father walked out, leaving only the heavy silence behind. She smirked, already reaching for the door. "Congratulations. You're about to become bodyguard number twelve." The man didn't even blink. "Before we go anywhere," he said in a calm, unwavering voice, setting a slim folder on the table, "you'll read and sign the confidentiality and security agreement. It outlines my protocols, your restrictions, and the boundaries that will not be crossed." She laughed. "You're kidding." "No." "I don't take orders." "I wasn't giving you a choice." She stepped closer, chin tilted defiantly. "You think you're going to tell me where I can go, who I can see, and what I can do?" "I know I am." She scoffed. "You'll quit in a week." His expression never changed. "I've completed deployments in places where people tried considerably harder than you to make me leave." He met her eyes without the slightest hint of challenge—only certainty. "Throw every tantrum you have. Break every rule you think you can. At the end of the day, you'll still have a bodyguard." "And if I refuse?" "You'll refuse," he replied evenly. "Then you'll discover the outcome is exactly the same." For the first time in years, someone had answered every spark she threw with absolute indifference—and somehow, that irritated her more than anger ever could.
