Pregnant, heartbroken, and determined to protect her unborn child, she builds a new life in a small town where no one asks too many questions. Three years later, she has Rosie, a thriving bakery, and the family she never expected to find. And then there's Luke Walker.

But somewhere between keeping her safe and watching her rebuild her life, protection became something neither of them is ready to name. When shadows from the past begin closing in, Allie's carefully built safe haven is threatened-and Luke will do whatever it takes to protect the woman and little girl who have quietly become his whole world. She came to Cedar Ridge looking for a safe haven. She never expected to find a home.

"Listen to me carefully," the woman said and grabbed his chin tightly to forcefully make him look into her eyes, "Love and happiness are two things people like you can't have, honey. You're probably wondering why. But it's easy to explain: the only thing everyone cares about is the family you were born into. It doesn't matter what you think or what's inside of you. You'll survive by wearing a mask and not letting anyone find out about your most vulnerable side. It's unfair, isn't it? Well, that's just how life is. That's why you're going to marry Jeon Jungkook and be the quiet, reserved and classy husband everyone expects you to be. You'll look pretty and obey, raise your future children and keep your head high up, do you understand?" Jimin was only eighteen when his father Park Woosung decided to marry him off. "People can be really cruel sometimes, you know. I'm scared of him. I don't want to end up like my mother... I want freedom." Not really having a choice, he agreed. "If you want freedom, do what my sister did. Leave this all behind." Knowing his family's curse followed him everywhere, he desperately tried to escape their disturbing secrets. "He wouldn't let me." Only to find himself trapped in another vicious circle. "You know, you kind of remind me of Ellin. She used to be the most innocent person in this house, yet there was something so incredibly sad about her. Even if she seemed older than her actual age, sick and tired of this world, I would always see a scared and helpless child when I looked at her." #Jikook Inspired by: Secession Studios- Lucifer's Waltz

╭─────────────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───────────────╮ "I once believed love would be burning red." - Taylor Swift, Daylight She was a girl who believed love could fix almost anything. He was a boy who believed nothing lasted long enough to be fixed. She was Andhra's sunshine-clumsy, shy, childish, endlessly talkative and hopelessly lost in her own little world of Krishna, Venkateswara and happily-ever-afters. He was Mumbai's storm-quiet, closed-off and intimidating enough to make people think twice before getting too close. She believed the world survived because of love. He believed the world survived because people learned to live with darkness. And then, on an ordinary day at a college in Hyderabad, she saw him for the first time. One wrong assumption. One careless shout. "Ey, Reddy!" He turned. And there she stood in a lavender frock, completely unaware that she had just caught the attention of a man who rarely noticed anyone. She didn't know his story. He didn't know hers. She didn't know Telugu would become something he desperately wished he understood. He didn't know that her voice, her laughter and her impossible belief in love would slowly become the one kind of noise he never wanted to escape. 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭. 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫. And Ekansh Rathore? He was never supposed to fall at all. ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─── Sometimes, all darkness needs is a little lavender haze. ╰─────────────── ⋆｡°✩°｡⋆ ───────────────╯ pictures in this book kindly credited to the respective owners.

Humanity understands magic through one principle above all others: precision. Magic is dangerous, volatile, and unforgiving. Magic is borrowed. To wield it safely requires discipline, control, and an unwavering respect for rules and boundaries. That belief forms the foundation of human civilization and is the reason those born with magical gifts are recruited into the Wardens, an elite protective order responsible for safeguarding the last human domain of Olympia from the Wilds. The Wilds are the other magical races, beings through whom magic flows freely and instinctively. They are not kind, they are not forgiving, and they cannot be reasoned with. After a millennium of conflict, humans have survived only through their mastery of Ward magic: powerful protective spells and intricate glyphs that shield Olympia and the last remnants of humanity from a hostile world. But with the human race now standing on the brink of extinction, one young apprentice may challenge everything humanity believes about magic. When Elara Lane discovers an affinity for wielding magic through something other than control and precision, she begins to question a thousand years of unquestioned doctrine. What if the Wardens' way is not the only way to survive? What if, instead of merely enduring, humanity could learn how to live? A student of the Warden Academy, Elara is stubborn, sharp-tongued, and fiercely determined, but she is neither arrogant nor unwilling to learn. That humility may be her greatest strength. Combined with the brilliance of her preceptor Master Callum Winthrop, whose gift for recognizing hidden patterns is matched only by his extraordinary power, Elara's revolutionary understanding of magic could become humanity's last hope. Or the force that changes their world forever.
