Every soul bound by love must pay its price - some with memories, others with their lives. THE GREEN THREAD "We were never meant to last. We were meant to burn. And call it love." Between dream and reality lies a fragile thread - green, alive, and unbreakable - binding two souls fated to meet yet destined to fracture. Lyra Elor has always lived between worlds - too soft for reality, too real for her dreams. Every time she closes her eyes, she sees him: Aren Larsen, a man both impossibly near and heartbreakingly unreachable. In those dreams, their hands are tied by a thread that tightens with every stolen heartbeat, every whispered word, every touch that burns like fire. But love in this realm isn't gentle. It's costly. Every time Aren reaches for her, Lyra loses a piece of herself - a memory, a heartbeat, a fragment of life - yet neither of them can let go. As the green thread pulses through them, reality begins to blur. Dreams bleed into waking life, shadows twist into desire, and the line between obsession and salvation grows thinner. With Eira, her steadfast friend; Finn, the fool hiding dangerous wisdom; and Aren, the man who would tear worlds apart just to keep her near, Lyra must uncover the secret behind the thread - and the price of a love that defies time itself. Because some loves aren't meant to save you. They're meant to unmake you - softly, completely... and forever ♡ I wanted to write about the world we touch when we close our eyes - where love isn't real, but it still hurts like it is... HOPE Y'ALL LIKE IT✿
