His favorite storm

“A woman chasing freedom. A man hiding pain. When fate binds them, love becomes the most dangerous game.” --- She ran from a golden cage. He ruled a kingdom built on shadows. One race. One spark. Everything changed. Ava Sinclair was born into power—but never wanted it. Raised in a world of cold smiles and gleaming emptiness, she longed not for diamonds, but for love—the kind her father had for her mother. To escape the suffocating luxury and hollow expectations of her elite life, Ava makes a secret bet with her brother: five months to live like a normal woman, no wealth, no title—just raw, unfiltered freedom. But love, it seems, was never meant for someone like her. Betrayed for not being "rich enough," she buries her heart beneath work, petals, and solitude… until one night at a street race, fate throws her into the path of a man more dangerous than any heartbreak. Dominic Vale is a billionaire whispered about with awe and fear. Calculated, cold, and commanding, he lives in the shadows of a tragic past and a silent war for answers about his brother’s disappearance. But the woman he meets that night? She doesn’t cower. She challenges. She stirs emotions he thought he had buried forever. A series of magnetic encounters turns into a game of tension, vulnerability, and passion. But just when things begin to burn, Ava vanishes without a word, leaving Dominic torn between fury and longing. A year later, fate plays its final card. Bound by an arranged marriage she didn’t agree to, Ava chooses to follow her parents’ wish—but refuses to even look at the man’s photo. She doesn’t want to know until they meet. And when the day comes, she walks into the room... Only to see the man she once ran from—sitting across from her, composed and smirking. He leans forward across the table, his voice like silk over fire. "You shouldn't have run away." ---
