when they meet, she is everything but honest about the one thing that owns her. to him, she is a safe space, beautiful, and a soul that feels like home. to herself, she is counting doses, hiding withdrawal, and hoping no one notices how close she is to falling apart. he loves her genuinely. without knowing he's loving someone who is already slipping away. when the truth finally surfaces, he doesn't leave. he tries to save her with patience and hope. but addiction doesn't care how deeply someone loves you, and love can't replace a choice someone isn't ready to make.

MAY2026-TBC! Once in a Blue Moon, love finds you when time is already running out.

"I don't know this man, I don't know his friends, I don't know his type." No amount of love could replace the past. And they had a lot of that for one another-love that is. The two child hood friends had bonded early on, especially over their love of music. Where one lacked, one had. Mariah was the writer, Kentrell the performer. It's only until a high school talent show that Kentrell performs a song written by his beloved best friend, Mariah...that his career takes off. But it happens to take off without Mariah. And he had promised to take her. Promises were meant to be broken I suppose.

જ⁀➴ IN WHICH A psychiatrist falls for her patient, a troubled rapper and love crosses the line between doctor and patient.

Kaizen Monroe never planned on falling in love overseas. A world-famous rapper, weighed down by fame and expectation, Kaizen flies to Tokyo chasing peace, inspiration, and silence he can't find back home. What he finds instead is Noemi Aoyama-quiet, graceful, and impossible to ignore. She lives between tradition and independence, bound by family expectations that leave no room for a man like him. Foreign. Famous. Unfamiliar. Under neon lights and late-night city walks, their connection grows-soft, real, and dangerous. Every moment feels stolen. Every touch feels temporary. And when love begins to cost more than either of them expected, Kaizen must decide how far he's willing to go... and Noemi must decide who she's willing to become. In a city where nothing sleeps and love speaks different languages, some hearts still find their way home.
