"𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘦," he hummed my name deeply after pushing me out of the party. He grabbed my waist, his breath tickling my skin as he spoke. "𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵, hmm?" He spoke into my ear. His large hand slipped around my neck, staring into my eyes with pure obsession. "𝘛𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘦, 𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘦. 𝘞𝘩𝘰 𝘥𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩?"

Sylus x Reader | Love and Deepspace fanfiction You're the MC from Love and Deepspace infiltrating an underground market, except it's not in a shady, dark alley but a distinguished Gothic manor. It's owned by Master Sylus, though he says you can call him by either one of those names. You're forced into a partnership with him in a life-or-death situation, but two can play his game. Your enemies-to-lovers arc with Sylus awaits, though another love interest will soon pine for your attention in the Manor...

Elyanna loved in quiet surrender, in glances stolen beneath the weight of unspoken words. She had spent her life standing in the shadows of a love that was never hers to claim-watching Sylus chase a dream that had Serena's name stitched into its seams. But Elyanna knew how to keep secrets. She kept her longing pressed between the pages of time. She kept her pain hidden behind soft smiles and steady hands. And most of all, she kept her heart's slow betrayal locked away, its fragile beats whispering a truth she dared not share. When fate offers her a choice-a chance to fight for borrowed time-Elyanna takes it, leaving behind the echoes of everything unsaid. But love has a way of unraveling even the most carefully guarded truths. And Sylus, who never turned to see her standing there before, finds himself searching for someone who may no longer be waiting. How do you mourn someone who was never truly yours? How do you hold on to something that was never spoken, yet lingers in every breath? Perhaps love is not always loud. Sometimes, it lives in the silence. And sometimes, it is the silence that hurts the most.
