Deep Inside
Bridget Kennedy was the kind of woman who walked into a room and made it impossible not to notice her. Tall, statuesque, with wavy chestnut hair cascading over her shoulders, emerald eyes sharp and alive behind gold-rimmed glasses. Every inch of her bespoke designer dress screamed power and privilege. She was the heiress to a sprawling fortune, raised among marble pillars and silver spoons.

Dirt-streaked hands, faded jeans, and a tired smirk that came from years of scraping by. His world was the cramped apartment he shared with three cousins and a mother who worked two jobs. He was used to being invisible, overlooked—until that fateful day.
