On going.

Abigail, 17, has always lived in the shadow of secrets. Ever since that night, the one no one talks about, her world has been silence, stares, and scars. Going back to school after a quiet summer, Abby tries to keep her head down - and fails. Worse: her father just remarried a woman she barely knows. Evelyn. 33. Elegant, mysterious, and cold as winter. With her perfect black hair, her chilling smile, and her sharp words when no one's around, Evelyn quickly turns their shared house into a prison Abby can't escape. Forced to live under the same roof while her father's away on business trips, the two women begin a quiet war - of glances, insults, tension, and something else they both refuse to name. Something dangerous. Something that hurts. And yet... something neither of them can ignore. What will happen when forced proximity turns into something far more dangerous than hate?

ON GOING Seah, a sponsored student at a prestigious university, possesses intelligence, ambition, and a life seemingly devoid of want. Yet, a past betrayal has left her feeling profoundly worthless, transforming her into a cold and distant woman. She carries the weight of abandonment, a wound that festers beneath a veneer of success. Seraphine Gill Aikawa, a captivating professor, and reowned architect at Seannist University, is admired for her exceptional teaching abilities and striking beauty. However, beneath the sophisticated exterior lies a similarly guarded heart; her aloofness a shield against vulnerability. Students whisper of her icy demeanor, yet secretly crave her approval. When the paths of these two guarded individuals collide, their carefully constructed emotional fortresses are tested. Will the coldness of their pasts melt away in the face of an unexpected connection? Will Seah's cynicism and Seraphine's reserve give way to warmth, understanding, and a transformative shift in their perspectives on life and love? Prepare for a story of unexpected intimacy and healing.?
