Roman Voss

The Dark Romance Dynamic She sees Roman as arrogant, cold, and unsettling. Roman sees her as the first person who makes him feel something he can't control. Their relationship begins with tension rather than romance. He provokes her. She challenges him. He watches. She notices. He protects her without permission. She resents him for it. The more she pushes him away, the more determined he becomes to understand her. Roman doesn't believe he's a villain. In his mind, he's protecting what belongs to him. But she refuses to belong to anyone. That becomes the central conflict.
