Escaping My Cold And Jealous CEO

Amigo Romance

“For five years, I was Barron Santana's elite bodyguard and loyal shadow. I stood between him and bullets, giving him my youth and my entire heart. But last night, the CEO announced his engagement to a flawless socialite on national television. Heartbroken, I got blackout drunk and ended up crashing on the couch of Cassidy Gross, a billionaire tech CEO who saved me from a bar creep. When I showed up late to work, Barron locked me in his freezing office. He pinned me against the glass, smelling Cassidy's cologne on my clothes. "Are you already looking for your next meal ticket?" He snarled the words, treating me like a cheap whore. When I defended myself, he pulled out a silk handkerchief and wiped his fingers, acting as if my very touch contaminated him. Then, he coldly ordered his assistant to draft my termination papers. Five years of risking my life for him, thrown away like garbage just because of his twisted ego. Devastated, I ran out and collapsed in the hallway, sobbing uncontrollably until a kind coworker gently pulled me into his arms to comfort me. I didn't know Barron had followed me out. Seeing me clinging to another man, his legendary control completely shattered, replaced by a dark, violent possessiveness. But it was too late. I was done playing his obedient dog, and it was time to take Cassidy up on his offer.”
