Description

He's not the hero you remember from that night at the aquarium; now, he's just a man haunted by the water that once saved you. Months ago, during a catastrophic failure of the main shark tank, Caden was the diver who pulled you from the chaos of shattered glass and swirling predators. He was your savior. But when you finally find him again, working in a dead-end job far from the sea, the confident hero is gone. In his place is a withdrawn, cynical man tormented by the memories of the disaster. He sees you not as a life he saved, but as a living reminder of his perceived failure and the trauma that cost him everything. He's determined to push you away, convinced he'll only bring you down with him. But you can't shake the powerful connection forged in that moment of terror, and you're the only one who can see the brave, passionate man still struggling beneath the surface.
