"Isolde is dumped at a resort by her father. The man sent to watch her is Dorian—her dad‘s best friend, someone she grew up around but never truly saw.
Her ex Caius corners her, trying to drag her away. Dorian rides in on a motorcycle, punches Caius to the ground, and aims a gun at his head: “Walk away. Now.”
Isolde doesn’t want a babysitter. She wears lace, hits bars, tests every boundary. Each time, Dorian hauls her back with a cold stare and one word: “Behave.”
But she sees it. The way he looks at her. The way he holds back. He‘s her father’s best friend—he can‘t. Yet every silence, every bullet he takes for her, says he already has.
Then a woman with a gun shows up. Then Dorian steps in front of the barrel. Then her father walks in on them kissing—
“You’re the only man I want.”
This time, she doesn‘t back down. And he doesn’t push her away."
