Everyone wants to win the lottery until it's time to collect.

Stan, a rugged man put through the tests of time. His body is covered in the only fruits he ever received from his labour. Believing he was the embodiment of bad luck, and it showed in his intimidating demeanour while trying to make ends meet. An individual respected out of fear rather than his hard work.

But there is one light in Stan's life, his wife, Bridgette. A lovely but fragile woman who has stood at her husband's side through thick and thin. She was his rock, his partner in crime, and the type who couldn't hurt a fly, but money makes people do crazy things.

They're ready to embrace their new reality when it's decided they'd finally be the lucky ones. Yet, blinded by excitement, corruption is fast approaching while Stan is at the forefront of its temptation, with the option of winning big or losing it all.

He's a billionaire with the world at his feet, finds himself in a realm where time stands still. There she is, draped in the splendor of her bridal finery, an ethereal beauty that stirs his soul. He gazes upon her, his mind a whirlwind of disbelief and longing- "Will she be his at last, or is she a celestial apparition destined to vanish at his yearning grasp?" His thoughts race "will she truly become his, or is she a mirage that will dissipate at his touch?" 'Please tell me "Mi Querida"'. ________(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠) ________ In stark contrast, the second scene paints a chilling tableau. The air is pierced by the sound of water, a relentless downpour that drowns all but the most sinister of intentions. Her, innocent and unaware, is ensnared in the vulnerability of the shower's embrace. Outside, a figure looms, He, the enigmatic man with a past as shadowy as the smile he wears. Leaning against the cool glass, his gaze fixed on the unsuspecting girl, he lets out a puff of smoke that mingles with the morning mist. "You've danced right into my web," he thinks, a predatory glint in his eyes. "Escape? From me? Oh, 'Mi Pequeña Asesina', the game has only just begun." He smirk. (With each turn of the page, 'Love - The Sweet Entrapment' promises a journey where passion intertwines with peril, and where every choice could be a step toward ecstasy or a descent into the abyss, is a tale that weaves together the threads of romance, suspense, and mystery, where every heart hides a secret, and every smile masks a strategy. It's a story that promises to captivate readers, leaving them questioning the very nature of love-is it a sanctuary or a subtle trap? It's a narrative that will ensnare the reader, holding them captive to the very last word) . © All Rights Reserved.
