My head spun as Aiden walked away. This was insane. Completely, utterly insane.
Had I just agreed to something bigger than I could handle? Probably. But God, was it exciting. Training with the world's top designers? Five hundred grand? A chance to change my life in a way I never imagined? Aiden wasn't wrong—opportunities like this didn't come every day.
And yet, that wasn't the only thing making my pulse race.
For the first time, I was seeing Aiden in a different light. I'd always known who he was—how powerful, how untouchable. He was everywhere. On every cover, in every headline. Danielle never shut up about him, always swooning over how perfect he was. And the worst part?
Now I was starting to see it too.
Or maybe I was just seeing the money.
I scoffed at myself. Right. That had to be it.
Except it wasn't.
