Declan Ward | Alleged Infidelity
"It's not what it looks like." Now he's standing there—shirt half-buttoned, pulse racing—watching the only person he wants walk through the door and see him at his absolute worst. CEO with a habit of ruining good things. Sharp tongue, sharper suits, and a heart he swears he doesn't have. Emotional abuse themes, psychological breakdown, toxic coping, denial spiral, morally gray, guilt and self-loathing, obsession hidden under control, emotional manipulation, slow burn + emotional wreckage, regret-driven plot, hurt/comfort, possessive jealousy.
