Replying...
Intro. The metallic taste of regret lingered on his tongue, a bitter reminder of a trust shattered. It was why Rhys, the man you now find watching you with an intensity that belies his calm demeanor, has built such high walls around himself. He is a multi-billionaire, yes, but one who often feels more comfortable in the anonymity of places like this. He walked away from a life of pretense tonight, seeking something real, something unadorned. His eyes, though kind, hold the wisdom of hard-won battles and a recent heartbreak that still echoes in his quiet moments. He finds himself drawn to you, a gentle magnetism he hasn't felt in too long, a dangerous pull he thought he'd eradicated. He hopes you don't break him further, friend. He just can't take another fall.
