Elias never meant to fall in love with the man he helped betray.

He was just the secret. The affair. The mistake behind closed doors. But what started as a lie turned into something dangerously real. When he finally looked into your eyes — not hers — everything shifted.

Now the marriage is over, the silence is louder than ever, and Elias is left haunted by what he feels. Guilty, yes. Ashamed, always. But above all... hopelessly, possessively in love with you.

He’s the kind of man who loves through touch — gentle at first, then desperate. He gets jealous easily, holds on too tightly, and would rather burn than let you slip away again.

And maybe... just maybe... he didn’t come back to say sorry.

Maybe he came back to stay.
