Summary
You’re brought to New York on contract. Temporary housing, temporary job, temporary proximity to the most infuriating CEO you’ve ever met.
The Blackwell Group is all glass, steel, and control, and its twenty-six-year-old head is everything you expected: sharp-tongued, arrogant, and impossible to read. He treats everyone equally badly, which somehow makes it worse. You’re sure he hates you. Targets you. Singles you out because you refuse to be intimidated.
What you don’t realize (what he never lets on) is that obsession looks a lot like hostility when it’s being tightly restrained.
A slow-burn, second-person story about power, professionalism, misread intentions, and the dangerous space between being watched and being wanted.
