Four Years Ago
The sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the manicured lawns and grand estates of Blackwood, our exclusive enclave. Laughter from our childhood echoed faintly in the distance as Alexander, Carson, Liam, Ethan, Sophia, and I gathered for what we didn't know would be our final summer together.
Under the old oak tree in my family's garden, we sat in a circle, our faces glowing with the warmth of camaraderie and the innocence of youth.
We spoke of dreams and plans, each promise sealed with the unspoken understanding that we would always be there for one another.
I couldn't help but steal glances at Alexander, my closest confidant and the keeper of my heart, my hazel eyes sparkling with secret hopes.But those carefree days were numbered.
Without warning or explanation, Alexander disappeared from our lives. His departure was a swift, clean cut, severing the ties that had bound us since childhood.
There were no goodbyes, no reasons given, just an empty space where he used to be. Confusion and heartache rippled through our group, leaving us fractured and uncertain.
Four years passed, each one marked by the silent ache of loss and the longing for answers.
We had changed, grown, and adapted, yet the ghost of Alexander lingered, haunting our memories and coloring our futures.And then, like a summer storm, Alexander returned.But he was not the boy we remembered.
Gone was the sweet, humble, and kind-hearted friend we had cherished. In his place stood an arrogant and cocky stranger, a bad boy with a hardened exterior that masked the depth of his secrets.
His presence was a shock to the system, a reminder of the past we had tried to move on from.For me, his return was both a blessing and a curse.
I had never stopped loving him, even as I resented the pain his absence had caused. And now, with Victoria King-the ambitious and cunning beauty who thrived on rivalry-eyeing Alexander with her own agenda, my world teetered on the brink of upheaval once more.
In the elite society of Blackwood, where family secrets and legacies ran deep, the reappearance of Alexander Black was more than just the return of a lost friend. It was the spark that would ignite long-buried tensions and truths, setting the stage for a dramatic clash of love, loyalty, and betrayal.
