(Sequel to 𝘏𝘌𝘈𝘙𝘛𝘚 𝘛𝘖𝘖 𝘉𝘓𝘌𝘌𝘋.) 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵𝘀 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻. 𝙉𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧. Because what tore them apart wasn't just bad. It was brutal. Loyalty didn't scream when accusations were thrown and he didn't speak when they dragged her away in cuffs. She loved. She bled. And she watched him choose the one girl she could never fight. Her best friend. And Aaron? He became the villain of a story no one fully understands. Once, he walked into her world, uninvited, unexpected, impossible to ignore. This time... she walks into his. But they are not the same anymore. She is wounded. Empty. And no longer believes in love. And him? He isn't just feared. He isn't just followed. He is something far more dangerous. And this time... there's no telling what he might destroy to keep control or what she might lose trying to survive him. ______________________________________________________________ "𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙨𝙖𝙮 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙢𝙚, 𝘼𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙤𝙣. 𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙢𝙪𝙘𝙝?" he asked. I froze. Not because I didn't know the answer. But because I never thought he will ever want to know. And then I said. ''𝙎𝙤 𝙢𝙪𝙘𝙝.'' ''𝙄 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙨𝙤 𝙢𝙪𝙘𝙝... 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙞 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙙𝙞𝙚 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙮𝙤𝙪.'' And that one question... turned their world upside down.

They called it an accident........ That day did change everything. Not loudly. Not all at once. But slowly-in ways no one noticed immediately. Lives shifted. Routines cracked. People who were never meant to meet suddenly found themselves tied together. And still- Messy. Uncertain. Unapologetic. trying to keep up with everything at once. Some were chasing ambition. Some were running from it. Some believed in love like it was certain- something that would eventually fall into place. Others didn't believe in it at all. And then there were those who stood somewhere in between- tangled in choices they didn't fully make, living lives that didn't feel entirely theirs. It was all ordinary. Until it wasn't. Because the accident- the one everyone talks about- wasn't the whole story. Not even close. It was just the point where everything invisible started becoming impossible to ignore. There were things that didn't make sense. Details that didn't quite fit. Silences that lasted a little too long. And truths- carefully hidden, carefully protected, until they began to surface on their own. But by then, it was already too late to separate what was real from what people chose to believe. Because sometimes, it's not the moment that changes your life- it's everything that follows it. The decisions made in confusion. The bonds formed out of circumstance. The lies told to keep things from falling apart. And the kind of love that wasn't supposed to happen at all. They said it was fate. But it doesn't feel like coincidence. And it doesn't feel accidental. Like something was always meant to happen. just not the way anyone expected. Because destiny doesn't always arrive gently. Sometimes, it waits quietly- until the exact moment everything is just fragile enough to break. And when it does- it doesn't ask. It doesn't warn. It simply begins. Where destiny overtake fate.....

I was never meant to be the main character. Six months, that was our deal, A fake relationship.. He needed me not for love but for six months to pretend to play the role of his perfect girlfriend.

Because in his story, I was never supposed to be the main character..

Steam fogs the shower glass. Bella rests against the tiled wall, letting the warm water spill over her as her breaths come uneven and fast. Zavyen steps inside, fully clothed, shutting the door with a quiet thud. "Stop running, Bella," he says, voice low and rough around the edges. She looks up at him, eyes tired yet burning. "This is me trying to breathe," she murmurs. He comes closer, water soaking through his shirt, one hand bracing the wall beside her head. She can feel the heat of him even through the steam. "Bella... what do you need?" he asks gently. "You," she whispers. Her fingers clutch his wet shirt, and she pulls him down. Zavyen lets himself be drawn in, his hand finding her waist, steadying her. He pauses for a heartbeat, studying her face-her trembling breaths, the exhaustion swimming beneath the want. Then he kisses her. Soft, deep, slow-like, he's trying to anchor her. She melts into him, gripping him tighter, the kiss growing heavier, needier. But suddenly, Zavyen breaks away. His forehead stays against hers, both of them breathing hard. Water rushes around them, but his voice is steady. "Bella," he whispers, thumb brushing her cheek, "you're exhausted." She shakes her head, reaching for him again. "I'm fine." He gently catches her wrists, lowering them. "No. You need to rest." _______________________________ At Averlyn Institute, Bella Bennett is hidden from the world-diagnosed, confined, and silenced to protect her father's reputation. Everyone sees her as a lost cause except Dr. Zavyen Nozen, the new psychiatrist whose calm defies her fury. He listens when no one else will. She challenges every wall he's built. Their sessions become a charged dance between restraint and longing, truth and illusion. But as Bella's feelings start to take a new turn, what will happen when their world will collide with each other?

They didn't just survive the storm. They became it. They ran. They fought. But escape never brought peace. So, they stopped running and burned it all to the ground. Hunted by a global Syndicate, Seraphina Vale and her fractured crew launch a brutal war to expose the empire hiding in plain sight. The price? Blood. Loss. Betrayal. Just when they begin to strike back, Calder is taken, used as leverage to break the fire that fuels her. But the fire has already scorched their legacy. Will that stop her? Or will this be the fight that consumes them all? Power will fall. Blood will spill. And this time... they're not leaving survivors.

Vassenholm does not forgive. It simply ensures that the people it harms do not survive long enough to require its forgiveness. Isae Forde knows this better than anyone. She left this city six years ago with nothing, her life deliberately unraveled by people who decided her existence was inconvenient to the power structures they had spent generations building. She is not returning to recover what was taken. She is returning because she has spent six years becoming the kind of woman who can walk into the rooms where it was decided that she did not matter, and take everything apart from the inside. The arrangement that places her at the center of the royal court begins as a transaction. Crown Prince Kairo Valor needs access to the foundation network that the five founding houses use to route their influence. Isae needs access to the sealed records buried deep in the palace archives. Neither of them trusts the other. Neither of them expects that to change. What develops between them over months of careful, deliberate, unavoidable proximity is not a love story anyone would recognize from a distance. It is built on a specific understanding of what the other person has survived, and it does not come quickly or without cost. This is a dark city. This is what happens when two people who were built by damage find each other inside the ruins of everything they came to dismantle. Some things will be exposed. Some will be buried. Not everyone pays. Not everyone walks away intact. There are no clean endings here. Only the truth, and what you choose to do when it finally surfaces. ©️ _RelleLebby_// R. L.
