For her it was always him. For him, it was never her. - - - - Might be the most stressful story you'll ever read. You've been warned.

Amelia Astoria, under an old pact with her grandfather and the Don of the Costra Nostra that runs New York City, agreed to marry Theodore Salvatore--the next mafia boss of the Salvatore clan, despite the high risk that comes with it, just to fulfill her grandfather's last wish. She never expected to fall in love with him, but even with his cold indifference, she still loved him deeply. But she knew that this love would just kill her softly. She couldn't continue living with this unrequited love that was slowly eating away her heart. She has to move on. She must let him go. She must lose him to love herself again.

status: under major revision All Meona ever wanted was to save her older sibling and bring back the warmth their family once had. She believed that if she worked hard enough, everything would eventually fall back into place. But when the very person meant to protect that warmth becomes the reason she's slowly breaking apart, Meona begins to question everything she once believed in. Then Rafael enters her life, quietly changing the way she sees love, sacrifice, and herself. But as truths she never expected begin to surface, one question remains-will Meona finally find the courage to face them, or will they consume her first? disclaimer: this story contains heavy and sensitive themes that may be uncomfortable for some readers. please read with caution and feel free to skip this story if the topics are distressing to you. kindly be respectful and gentle when discussing sensitive matters related to the story. thank you.

Chiara Asunción has survived a life of betrayal, trauma, and neglect, yet the scars run deep. Rebellious, guarded, and carrying the weight of her past, she trusts no one until Demian Chavez, her former senior and now professor, enters her life. Quiet, steady, and strangely attuned to her pain, he offers something Chiara thought she'd lost forever: a chance at justice, healing, and maybe even love.
