Rehan~

The elevator doors slid shut with a soft chime, trapping Lily inside with the last person she ever expected to see up close Rehan khan, the city’s most feared mafia leader. She recognized him instantly: the sharp suit, the cold eyes, the aura that made the air feel heavier. She clutched her grocery bag tighter and stared at the glowing floor numbers, willing the elevator to move faster.Rehan glanced at her, amused. “Relax. I don’t bite.” Lily swallowed. “I’m not nervous.” His brow lifted. “You’re shaking.”Before she could deny it, the elevator suddenly jolted, lights flickering, then stopped. Lily gasped, nearly dropping her things.Rehan pressed the emergency button, then sighed. “Great. We’re stuck.”Minutes passed in tense silence. Lily’s breath grew shaky, and she sank to the floor. “I hate small spaces. ”Rehan watched her, and to her surprise, his expression softened. He lowered himself beside her. “Breathe slowly,” he said quietly. “Focus on my voice.”She did. And somehow, it helped.After a moment, she peeked at him. “You’re not as scary as people say.”He gave a low chuckle. “Don’t test that theory.” Finally, the elevator hummed back to life and the doors opened. Lily stood, steady again.Thank you,” she said shyly.Rehan smirked as he stepped out. “Anytime, little dove”
