She loved him loudly. He loved her quietly-only when it was convenient. Leah believed two years of love meant security, a future, a place she could finally call hers.

This is a story about emotional neglect, unspoken loyalties, and the slow realization that love without priority is a form of loss. It asks a difficult question: How long can you stay where you are never fully chosen?

Everyone says what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. But what if you live there? Eliza thought she had the kind of life everyone wants - a career that was finally taking off, a husband she'd loved since college, and a tight circle who felt more like family than friends.

Brokenhearted and crying on a moonlit Phuket beach after watching his first love marry someone else, the sweet Omega barista thinks he is completely invisible. He couldn't be more wrong. For six months, Net Siraphop Manithikhun-the terrifying, obscenely wealthy Alpha owner of the Midnight Serpent Club-has sat quietly in JJ's café, ordering sickeningly sweet pink drinks just to watch the beautiful barista smile. Net's protective instincts are roaring, and when JJ's sorrow finally pushes him to accept an invitation to Net's exclusive club, one night of tequila and tearful confessions erupts into an intoxicating, fiery passion.

Convinced he just made a deadly mistake with a ruthless mafia boss, he runs. But an Alpha like Net doesn't let his destined mate slip away. Net is coming to claim what is his, determined to prove that the ring wasn't a drunken accident-it was a promise. He isn't a monster; he is a man dangerously obsessed. And as hidden enemies emerge to threaten their newfound love and a miraculous, unexpected pregnancy, Net will happily burn the world to the ground before he ever lets his Omega feel lonely again. A steamy, high-stakes Omegaverse Boys Love novel featuring a possessive-but-sweet Alpha, a gentle Omega finding his worth, explosive chemistry, and a love that refuses to be second best.

Some dreams bloom. Others bleed in silence. Felix Morel is finally living the life he once prayed for. The stages are bigger, the lights are blinding, and his name echoes through arenas that once felt impossibly far away. To the world, he is exactly where he was meant to be. But success has a way of amplifying what you try hardest to bury, and behind every sold-out show and every lyric he writes, there is one name he cannot escape-Elias Gray. Working side by side after everything that shattered between them was supposed to be simple: strictly professional, carefully distant, safely detached. Instead, the silence between them grows heavier with every lingering glance and every word left unspoken. The love between them never truly died; it only buried itself deeper-hiding in unfinished conversations, in songs written at three in the morning, in the fragile space between resentment and longing. And as old wounds reopen and long-buried truths begin to surface, Felix and Elias must decide whether what they had was just a beautiful mistake... or something still worth fighting for. ⚠️ Warning: This book is part of a series and will NOT make sense if you haven't read the first book, Blooming Dream.⚠️
