there's a fine line between control and collapse, and Lorelei Campbell has always been both. But what happens when your world finally destructs and you're standing in the middle of it?
When the calm you built becomes smoke in your lungs, and the person holding the match is the only one you ever let close enough to strike it.
Paige Bueckers was supposed to be steady. Light. The thing that quieted the noise. Instead, she became the noise-louder, sharper, impossible to ignore.
Now every glance feels like a challenge. Every word, a blade.
The distance between them hums like static-too charged, too fragile, too dangerous to touch.
And yet neither of them can look away.
Because love like this doesn't fade.
It festers. It rewrites you. It dares you to walk through the fire just to prove you can.
Lorelei's always been good at pretending she's unshakable.
But Paige knows better.
She always has.
