"If our eyes get blurred due to cataracts, we can clear them through eye surgery. But what can we do if we suffer from a cataract of delusion?" ___________________________________ Olivia Whitley had always believed her life was picture-perfect - until she uncovered the devastating truth: her first love, Vinson, had been in love with their childhood friend, Leo. Out of loyalty, Olivia had agreed to a sham marriage with Leo, sacrificing her own happiness to protect them from societal judgment and their families wrath. But her sacrifices had thrust her into a web of betrayal and deceit, culminating in a shocking outcome - seven years in prison for crimes she hadn't committed. Manipulated by those she trusted most, she was left haunted by memories of love, loss, and devastating secrets. After her release, Olivia embarked on a dangerous journey to uncover the conspiracy that had destroyed her life. As she dug into long-buried truths and questioned everything she once believed, she faced a terrifying reality. Could she unmask the culprits and discover the truth, or would she drown in the sea of delusion - a world her mind had created to shield her from unbearable pain? As the lines between reality and delusion blurred, Olivia had to decide: would she fight for justice, or lose herself to the darkness forever? ___________________________________ 🏳️‍🌈 🌈 🏳️‍🌈 LGBT 🏳️‍🌈 🌈 🏳️‍🌈 👿👿 Conspiracy 👿👿 🕵️‍♀️ Strong Female Lead 🕵️‍♀️ 🎢 Emotional Rollercoaster 🎢 ___________________________________ This Novel is exclusively available on WATTPAD Copyright, 2023 - 2025 © S.

Black Moon Series Book #5 📲 This book updates at best once a week and only if I have managed to write at least three chapters of the next books. Warning: #Mature #Gay #Triggering Description: I was raised in a bigot family. Church, God, Strict Rules, Seriousness, School, Homophobia, Conservatism, Family. These were their motto. Not mine. I wasn't the rebel kid, more like a sheep, at least until adolescence hit me. These beliefs have led me to become the total opposite to what my family expected. My faith mostly lays in wildness, triviality, sex. I am dreaming of fun and liberty of mind. Worst sin of all, I am attracted to males, and this might be the last straw for my parents. My ultimate faith lays in my three childhood friends. Camden Hall. Joshua Pierce. Mark Murray. Our bond goes far beyond friendship, love or any other human feeling. We are a whole entity. One cannot go without the others. And yet... When our 17th birthday turns into a tragic event and my father threatens me with the worst possible future he can think of, none of their comfort will prevent my flee from a life I don't yearn for. Sometimes, you just need to see new horizons, taste new dangers to build yourself. I may end up burning my wings in Los Angeles, but who knows? I might also meet my peace of mind...
