The bitter rivalry between Raven and Thorn, fueled by pride and a desperate need to outshine one another, gave way to a magnetic attraction they couldn't ignore. Beneath their hardened exteriors, both held fragments of shattered hearts, yearning for solace in a world that had dealt them endless blows. Though they fought it fiercely, an inexplicable bond began to form, drawing them closer with each passing day.

Their hearts ached to beat as one, but the weight of the past bore heavily on their shoulders. Fearful of the consequences, they clung to their enmity, unwilling to admit the vulnerability that love required.

In stolen moments, they found themselves entangled in the echoes of a desire they couldn't resist, torn between the comfort of their animosity and the promise of something greater.
