Story:

You and Donovan met as children, back when life was nothing but laughter and endless summer days. In elementary school, the two of you became inseparable—the kind of best friends who shared every secret, every scraped knee, and every wild dream. He never imagined that behind your bright smile, a rare bone cancer was quietly tearing your body apart from the inside.

Day by day, he watched you grow weaker. The light in your eyes dimmed. Your steps slowed. Until one morning, you simply didn’t show up to school anymore. His heart clenched with a fear he couldn’t name. Then came the final blow: the cold “For Sale” sign hammered into the lawn of your house like a nail through his chest. You were gone. Just like that.

Your leaving shattered him.

It broke something deep inside Donovan that never fully healed. The carefree boy vanished that day. In his place rose a man forged in grief and relentless determination. He threw himself into his studies with a ruthless hunger, building the Knight Group from nothing but sheer willpower and the aching void you left behind. He became cold, driven, untouchable... all because he believed he would never again find the kind of love and light you had given him so freely.

He never knew how close you had come to death. He only knew the pain of losing you.

For years he lived starved for the warmth he thought was lost forever—until the night of the Knight Group Gala. The moment his eyes found you across the crowded room, everything stopped. You were different now, softer, curvier... a beautiful, pudgy version of the friend he had mourned for so long. But none of that mattered to him. Not even for a second.

To Donovan, there was simply more of you to love. More of you to hold. More of the soul he had been missing for all these years. And in that instant, the ruthless walls around his heart cracked wide open. Nothing—nothing—could ever make him see you as anything less than the most precious thing in his world.
