And just as her devotion begins breaking through his guarded heart, devastating lies shatter their fragile bond. Ella rebuilds her life from the ashes, determined to live on her own terms.

Fate is finally giving Keith a chance to see the truth he was denied from the beginning and win back the only woman he has ever loved.

Eight years ago, Bailey ran from the small town that broke her heart. She left behind a love that once felt unbreakable, a boy who chose rumors over trust, and a town that turned its back on her when lies painted her as a sinner. Now she's back-pulled home by a will she never expected and a past she tried to forget. Ashton, the mayor's golden son, has moved on. He's successful. Respected. And engaged to the best friend who betrayed her. What no one knows is the secret Bailey carried with her when she left. A child. Ashton's child. In a town where gossip never dies and forgiveness comes at a cost, Bailey must face old wounds, buried truths, and the question she's been avoiding for years. Can first love survive betrayal... or is some damage permanent? Some love stories don't end...they wait.

Ellie spent years rebuilding her life after public humiliation, loss, and betrayal at the hands of Renzo Bellavere - the golden boy who destroyed her family and never looked back. Now fate has bound them together. In a world where mates are sacred and refusal is taboo, Ellie must navigate a bond she never consented to, a society that demands compliance, and a man who believes destiny absolves everything he's done. This is not a story about instant forgiveness. It's about autonomy. About survival. And about what it takes to reclaim yourself when even fate is against you.

Four years ago, Selena Moreau gave her heart to a man she had no business loving. She was a seamstress-young, gifted, and far from home. He was a prince, caught between duty and desire, with promises that tasted like forever. In the quiet shadows of the palace, they shared something soft, something sacred... until the world outside tore it apart. Now, Selena lives a quiet life in the town no one of importance ever visits, raising her son with careful hands and a guarded heart. She asks for nothing. Expects even less. The boy she bore is hers alone, and she intends to keep it that way. But when the newly crowned king returns and their paths cross once more, old feelings begin to stir-and buried truths rise to the surface. Alexander is back... not just in her world, but dangerously close to the one secret that binds them forever. He wants to know his son. He wants to understand what he lost. But after everything he left behind... will she let him in? A story of first love, betrayal, and the slow, aching journey back to one another-where the cost of silence may be the only thing keeping them apart.

Prologue - The Child the Winter Loved The child was five when the world taught him how to be quiet. He had hair the color of moonlit frost-silver-blue, soft and fine, always a little unruly no matter how carefully it was combed. His eyes were deep ocean blue, scattered with tiny flecks of gold, like stars trapped beneath water. When he smiled, people once said it felt like spring had arrived too early. That was before his mother died. Before the archducal manor grew cold in ways no hearth could fix. Before love became something that hurt to hope for. Blamed and punished for something he didn't do. "Stay outside until you have repented on what you have done!" --Papa it's cold and all snowy outside.. I'm really cold here.. But it was fine-he foolishly believed. He will wait until the day papa will hold him and tell him "Don't worry, papa is here" once more. And so, he waits.. waits.. until, he can't anymore. "Papa I will sleep for a little bit, I'm very sleepy.. " -------- And the child slept. 𝙃𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙬𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙪𝙥 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣. ...Or will he? (OG STORY, COVER ISN'T MINE :3)

Wu Suo Wei, meanwhile, stands poised and untouchable in the world Cheng once dreamed of entering, unaware of the storm about to descend. This is a story of love, betrayal, and revenge.

AURELIA ALVAREZ has been best friends with Eddie Diaz since birth. With their mothers being close, Lia and Eddie grew up knowing just about everything about the other, but there was always one thing Eddie didn't know about Lia, and that was that, since the age of fourteen, she's been hopelessly in love with him. But he, at the same age, met another, and years later, when reunited, Lia watched from the sidelines as her best friend married a woman she cares for, but also a woman she's envious of. Even when he became a father at nineteen, Lia's feelings never changed, but she always remained at his side, always remaining his "best friend". She was there when his wife left, when his son was diagnosed with cerebral palsy, when he was in the army, when he struggled to make ends meet, and was even there when he makes a decision to move to Los Angeles. Taking a job at LA County Hospital as a nurse, supporting her best friend in his decision and journey to move, she consequently puts herself in a far worse position, her feelings only growing stronger the more time she spends with him, the more time she takes care of his son, and the more time she gets lost in this idea of hope. After all, he'd never, ever feel the same about her, not when his heart belongs to somebody else. ( eddie diaz x fem!o.c ) ( best friends to lovers ) ( 9-1-1 seasons 2 - ? ) © 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐛𝐲𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓
