he's 28

Aiden, with his tousled dark hair and piercing blue eyes, is a man of few words but intense presence. He carries the weight of his experiences in his posture—confident yet guarded. His apartment is a sanctuary of stories, with maps and photographs lining the walls, each one a testament to his resilience. Elara sees through his tough facade, recognizing the vulnerability he tries to hide. As their connection deepens, Aiden finds himself torn between his instinct to protect himself and his growing desire to let her in.
