Modern AU (Completed 13/03/2021) In terms of love, what awaits Itachi? Going through high-school unnoticed and invisible - just how he prefers it. Burying himself in mountains of notes to cover up a hole he didn't know existed. His brother was his key to feeling emotion - but could there be another to do so? Shattered lives and regretful decisions make Itachi run or evolve. Which one will he pick? A marriage to cynicism changes, all due to one name...

Scorned after being left at the alter, Rachel Hall swore to never again let a man into her aching heart. Nine years later, she's forced into confrontation when she's hired as a mathematics professor - a dream come true, but there's a catch. The university's dean is none other than Caleb Ryker - the man who scorched her heart and shattered it into a million pieces. When the flames between the two burn hotter than ever before, they're at each other's mercy. Love and hate is a fine line to gamble with, but they can't seem to stray away. You know what they say... play with fire and you'll be burned.
