“NEVER give up; NEVER lose hope. Always have faith, it allows you to cope. Trying times will pass as they always do. Just have patience, your dreams will come true. So put on a smile, you will live through your pain. Know it will pass and strength you will gain.” Lydia Cook had it all when she was a twenty-three years old bachelorette. She just recently got promoted as a personal assistant for her boss, she have a very loving and supportive parents, brothers and sisters that works hard and great friends that always there for her. But when she reaches the age of twenty-four, her boss retired and replace by a man she despites. At the age of twenty-five, she lost her father. Things are falling apart for her and her family. Her mother had a weak heart and can’t work much. The café they owed is only enough to pay for the bills for their home and the café. Her wage is enough to pay for the tuition fees of her brothers and sisters. The money her brothers and sister earn is enough to put food on their table. But she knew she can still rely on her friends or so she thought. Her mother needed a heart transplant and when she needed their help none of her so-called ‘friends’ helped her. When she’s about to lose hope, a person she didn't expect lends her a helping hand but with a price. Marriage Harvey Omar Thompson aka H.O.T. is a man with many secrets. He is charming, intelligent, good-looking, ambitious, rich and very mysterious. He was only twenty-five years old when he took over the CEO position from his uncle. But to Lydia he is an arrogant man and self-centered who doesn't care about others but himself until he offered her his help. A help she could not just brush away and for the sake of her mother’s life, she swallowed her pride and accept the offer. Little did she know that her life was about to turn into one roller-coaster ride.

"Nowhere is safe, you know?" Foster homes, orphanages, replacement homes, you name it, Georgia Monroe has never fit in anywhere. From a young age, she has only known that running away and constantly losing track of those that are supposed to care for her, is a way of survival. A way to escape. She hardly knows her real name, as people are constantly trying to change it, whilst all she wants to do is fit in. It's like she knows that she has a real family out there, no matter how many times people try to tell her that they either didn't want her, before explaining all the reasons why no one would want her, or that they all died, and she will never know them. For years, Georgia has tried to decipher the difference between words thrown at her in rage and due to alcohol, but as the years go by, it is harder to see the difference. It's harder not to believe the words. The words of her family not wanting her and that they may be dead, probably as a result of her sake. All she wants, is a pair of safe arms that will take the stress of her shoulders, for a little while. Only, she doesn't know how great of a deal she is asking of those that are her family. She will never understand the depth of the work that her real family has been intertwined, and maybe not living with them, has kept her alive. Has made her a stronger person than she would have been if she had grown up with them from the beginning. Georgia, though it may feel like to her, isn't the only one that has suffered. Though her brothers home may be idealistic and fit for a king and queen in her eyes, it is far from it. Behind all the luxury and money spilling from the walls, it hadn't been like that their entire lives. It wasn't easy to attain such wealth without risking a few lives here and there, including Georgia's, their sister. __________________________________________________________________ Started: 11.10.21 Finished: 21.08.22 Rewritten: 17.08.25 -
