Khloe had just felt the round scar on his left shoulder and was sure she\u2019d imagined it. But now, even with his shirt on, she could still make out its faint outline through the fabric. The mark wasn\u2019t large, but it looked deep.\u00a0<\/p>\n
For a man like Nick-born with a silver spoon in his mouth-a scar like that was a stark anomaly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThere was a terrorist attack at a global economic forum a few years back,\u201d he said, his voice calm, almost offhand. \u201cI took a bullet to the shoulder.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His tone was casual, as if he were talking about a business deal. But to Khloe, the words were staggering. A bullet? She couldn\u2019t even imagine the pain.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She hesitated, then said softly, \u201cYou\u2019re incredible.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He glanced back at her, a flicker of interest in his eyes. \u201cWhy do you say that?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was usually immune to flattery, but something in her tone made him want to hear it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s just\u2026 you handle everything with such control. Work, your emotions\u2026 everything. I\u2019m not like that at all. I\u2019m a mess with pain, I hold onto things. If that happened to me, I\u2019d still be in therapy for it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her admiration was genuine. He was flawless, and even though he was only a few years older, he commanded the Hunt Group with absolute authority.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick\u2019s fingers traced the scar.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you\u2019re afraid of pain, don\u2019t push yourself next time,\u201d he said, his voice uncharacteristically soft. \u201cAfter we\u2019re married, I\u2019ll be here. I\u2019ll protect you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
They were just a few simple words, but they felt like a vow, and Khloe felt a sudden, dangerous flutter in her chest. She quickly pushed the feeling down, offering a faint smile. \u201cOkay.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As soon as he got back in his room, Nick immediately took a shower. Emerging later, he caught a glimpse of the scar, now faint, and his thoughts drifted back two years.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The forum\u2019s venue had been bombed. He\u2019d been trapped in the rubble with a middle-aged man, both of them waiting for a rescue that felt like it would never come. When the bullet tore through his shoulder, he was losing blood fast, too weak to stand. It was that man who had torn his own shirt for a bandage, who had hauled Nick up,\u00a0<\/p>\n
and who had refused to leave him behind.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick had told him to go, not to waste his life on a stranger. But the man wouldn\u2019t listen. Just before the rescue teams broke through, the man confessed he had no children, that his own life had been enough, and that it was more important for a younger man to make it out. It was his final act of legacy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After they were rescued, the man vanished. It was only years later, when Nick saw the obituary for Neil Morrison, that he made the connection: Neil was the man who had saved him. He\u2019d had his team dig into the Morrison family, looking for a way to repay the debt. And now, by taking Khloe under his wing, it seemed the balance was finally settled.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The next morning, Nick was just waking when a phone buzzed insistently on the nightstand. It wasn\u2019t his-it was Khloe\u2019s.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He\u2019d grabbed her dead phone the night before when he carried her out of her office building. After charging overnight, it had sprung back to life.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The screen lit up with an incoming call. The name: Trey.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He remembered the dossier his assistant had compiled. Khloe had wasted six years of her life on this man. He was the user who had drained her savings, her confidence, her freedom-a controlling narcissist who had trapped her\u00a0<\/p>\n
in a relationship that was a lie.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The phone buzzed again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick picked it up and pressed \u201caccept.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
