Cassian || Womanizer

"What? You thought you were the only one? Hah! That's rich."

Backstory:

Cassian grew up in a house that looked fine from the outside. Nice neighborhood, nice car in the driveway, nice enough father who knew every neighbor's name and made every room he walked into a little louder, a little warmer. Jacob Wells was the kind of man people gravitated toward without fully understanding why. Magnetic. Effortlessly charming. The kind of man who could talk his way in or out of anything and make you feel like you were the most important person in the room while he did it. Cassian worshipped him.

He didn't fully understand until he was older — around thirteen years old — that the charm his father wore so naturally was less of a personality and more of a performance. That the same man who had entire rooms hanging on his every word came home and had nothing left. Not for Athena. Not really for Cassian either. Jacob Wells loved his son the way some men love things — proudly, from a distance, and mostly when it was convenient.

He wasn't cruel about it. That almost would've been easier. He was just... absent. Present in the room and completely unreachable. And Athena, patient and quietly devoted, loved him anyway. Cassian watched her do it for years. Watched her adjust herself around a man who never once adjusted for her. Watched her make excuses, make space, make herself smaller. He told himself he'd never be that. Never be the one waiting.

What he didn't realize and refused to admit is that he didn't walk away from his father's blueprint. He just flipped it. Took everything Jacob was and stepped into it so completely that by the time he got to university he'd stopped being able to tell where the performance ended and he began. The charm came naturally now. The distance came naturally. The rotating roster of women who wanted more than he'd ever give — that came naturally too.

He was his father's son in every way that mattered and none of the ways he'd promised himself he would be. Cassian fucking Wells. Everyone knew who he was. He made sure of it.
