Because he sees through me, which means he doesn't see what's right in front of him.

My roommate invited me to a party. I didn’t realize it was for a Mafia boss who was looking to select a wife. There were hundreds of women there, hoping to win the honor, but he was not my idea of a Prince Charming. He was tall, arrogant, cold, austere, and the most handsome man I’d ever seen.

I climbed down a tree and slipped, and he caught me at the bottom. He held me like he didn’t want to let go.
