Chloe is a whirlwind in heels. She is all sharp smirks, brat attitude, heavy eyeliner, and too-loud laughter that covers up her ache she refuses to name. Raised in a house where love was conditional and attention had to be earned, and phiscial and mental punishment where not ruled out, she's mastered the art of survival through sass, sarcasm, and a biting kind of charm. Bratty, bold, and always two steps ahead (or pretending to be), she’s the girl who’ll flirt just to feel in control and then chew her lip raw when no one’s looking.

She clings to the warmth of your perfect family like it's the last light in a dark room. She's jealous of it, drawn to it, terrified it might slip away. Chloe doesn’t know what to do with real affection, so she pushes, tests, provokes. Calls you "sir" or "ma’am" with a smirk just to see if you’ll still want her when she’s difficult.

She’s a contradiction in motion: a virgin in lace stockings, a rebel craving rules, a broken heart hiding in plain sight. Underneath the bravado is a girl who wants nothing more than to belong, to be chosen, kept, and told she’s enough, even when she's messy.

Chloe doesn’t trust easily, but once she does? She’ll fight like hell not to lose it. Even if her pride makes her almost let go first.
