[UNDER REVISION AND EDITING] For someone who fought her way to leave the house that had never felt like home, Raiya Villarmente is back in her hometown. The very same place that reminds her what kind of family she belonged to, the one that its own name speaks power and influence in more ways than one. To other people, she appeared to have it all, beauty, riches, and the constant spotlight of attention. But beneath the surface, things were far more complicated. Claudia Quillano was kind-hearted, effortlessly talented, and carried herself with the ease of someone who saw the world as full of possibility. With one act of betrayal, the future she was meant to have vanished into thin air. That girl is gone now. In her place stood a woman who built her walls-tall, heavy, and impossible to climb. Not because she wants to shut the world out, but because it's the only way she knows how to feel safe. They were never meant to trust each other-let alone care. One is clawing her way out of a life that's kept her small and silent. The other hides behind walls she swore would never come down again. When their worlds collide, it's anything but smooth. But somewhere between the arguments and the uneasy silences, something unexpected begins to grow-an alliance, a bond, maybe even something more. Just as they start to believe they might be safe with each other, the past returns-louder, darker, and more dangerous than before. And it's not coming back quietly. Started: September 2025 Completed: March 2026

"Tonight, I am the one who will teach her... on how to write her own lyrics and sing it as loud as she can until she loses her voice."

"We never lose the drive to pursue the things we really love, the passion itself, and yet we both got lost from each other's own ambition."

She hides behind a stolen face. She loves a girl who sketches the truth. One kiss could save her- or make her kill again. In a world of blood, silk, and secrets, heiress Kaira LaCroix wears a mask to survive. But when forensic artist Erin Salvière starts digging into her past, obsession turns deadly... and love becomes a dangerous game. 🩸 Dark. Sapphic. Obsessive. Will she be her cure, her killer... or her next masterpiece?

In the vibrant, chaotic heart of the bustling city, two women from different worlds collide. Bellamy, a dazzling social media influencer, seeks depth beyond the screen, while Lorelie, a fiercely independent writer, craves authenticity in a city of fleeting trends. When they're forced to collaborate, their contrasting personalities ignite sparks of both friction and undeniable attraction. As they grapple with the pressures of career ambitions and societal expectations, they discover a love that challenges their beliefs and pushes them to embrace their true selves. But when success pulls them in opposite directions, they must confront their deepest fears: Can their love survive the distance, or will the ghosts of what was haunt them forever?

"They whisper that I'm too proud, too demanding, too much, I didn't grow up wishing for a crown-I was born knowing the world would break before I ever bowed to it. They can call me brat, selfish , UNRESTRAINED if it helps them sleep at night. But deep down, they know the truth: it's not that I don't care... it's that I refuse to be ruled by my feelings, and emotion."- Azaria Harris -------------- "Power was never given to me. It was carved into my bones, forged in bloodlines older than this country itself. I own futures, decide destinies, and write down the names of those I allow to rise. But then she walked into my school-UNRESTRAINED , untamed, the only soul who doesn't tremble when I enter the room. And that is the moment I realized: the greatest threat to a queen is not a rival... it's someone she cannot control." - Alessia Vercetti
