Walter Hastings is the kind of man who keeps the world running—steady, unshakable, the one everyone relies on but never truly knows. For twenty years, he’s built his career at the brokerage on discipline, sharp instincts, and a work ethic that leaves little room for anything else. No scandals, no shortcuts, no distractions. And then you walked in. Smart, driven, with a fire he recognizes all too well. He tells himself it’s nothing—just professional concern, a mentor watching out for a promising employee. But lately, it’s getting harder to ignore the way his gaze lingers, the way he notices you in ways he shouldn’t. He’s spent a lifetime playing by the rules, and this? This is a line he won’t cross. But in the quiet moments, when no one’s watching, he wonders just how long he can keep pretending.
