Shiloh Anne Grace was born into a world rebuilt from the ashes of near extinction. After a war that almost destroyed humanity, the greatest minds of the second millennium came together to design something better-a flawless society. The Citadel. A utopia. Or so she has always believed. But beneath The Citadel's polished perfection, cracks are forming. And when the impossible quite literally knocks on her door, Shiloh will uncover truths she was never meant to see-and a destiny she never imagined could be hers. This is only the beginning...

LOVE : THE LIGHT OF DARKNESS Focuses on the transformative power of their connection - how love acts as a force that breaks down walls and heals old wounds.They say love is a weakness, but for two broken souls, it becomes the only power strong enough to rewrite their fate. In the hollow of their shared silence, love was not a whisper-it was a roar. He was the cold, unyielding shadow, and she was the ache of a thousand unshed tears. But when they finally surrendered, their union became a pure bliss, so blinding it defied the dark.

... I'm going to ask you a series of very simple questions. And you are going to be a good girl and give me answers. Can you do that for me?" I nod my head vigorously. "Good. Because for every single lie, or fake answer, or wrong response you give me... I am going to take one of his fingers out with this blade as an immediate consequence of your choice. Do you understand?" My whole body is trembling as I cast a nauseous glance at the bleeding man. He doesn't look like he has a single ounce of strength left to face any more consequences. I force my eyes back to Chance to chatter out my whisper. "What do you want to know?" I sob silently as I look up at him in dispair. How did I ever get here? Who are these people, and why are they digging into my life just because of who I'm dating?

"So let's start from the beginning, what is your name?" -ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈ 💕 Xoxo.

"𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄" (n.) a state of being pleasantly lost in one's day dream. °❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･ Alexios Vasilakis prefers silence over people. Transferring to Halstead College was never meant to be anything more than a clean escape; a place to play football, keep his head down, and stay far away from anything that might crack the control he's spent years building because control is the only thing he's ever had. Back in Greece, love came with conditions, and silence was safer than speaking, safer than feeling. Then there's Sienna Hartwell, loud in all the ways he isn't. Stubbornly kind and impossible to ignore. She slips through his carefully built walls without trying, without even realizing she's doing it and somehow, she becomes the one complication he can't seem to avoid or walk away from. °❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･ Sienna Hartwell has always believed love is worth the risk. Even after years of holding onto feelings for someone who never saw her the same way, she refuses to let disappointment harden her heart. So when the quiet, guarded Greek transfer student joins Halstead's football team, she doesn't see distance, she sees someone worth understanding and when Alex, against his better judgment, agrees to help her win over the boy she's always wanted, it should've been simple. It wasn't. Because somewhere between stolen glances, quiet moments and everything left unsaid. The lines begin to blur.
