"I can't help but love you, Even though I try not to. I can't help but want you, I know that I'd die without you." ~Ruelle (Song: War of Hearts) Elizabeth never meant to break the rules. She only wanted to survive them. Born into power, bound by expectations, and haunted by a mother who sees vulnerability as weakness, Lizzy has spent her life building a mask sharp enough to protect her-and cold enough to keep anyone out. But everything shifts when she meets her new physics teacher, a woman carrying just as much pain as Lizzy does. As their connection deepens, the carefully built walls around Lizzy's heart begin to crack, and for the first time, she must confront what it means to build a future-with someone just as shattered as she is. 🥇#sapphicromance (04.
