-CONTEST COLLABORATION WITH @Kiranotash- 
Sophomore 21 year old Alan Pitch lives a boring life. He always yearned for the day he would finally leave his hometown RedCliff, and move away to London for college. Things turned out well, but not as exciting as he thought they'd be. Life is grey, and Alan starts to yearn for something more. That is, until a tragedy happens back at home, when his mother's and sister's corpses are found beheaded on their own house. No clues are found by the police whatsoever, not even a small index or trail. Feeling guilty and devastated by their loss, and thirsty for revenge, Alan decides to return to RedCliff, and is determined to unveil the mystery of the person who murdered his family. The real question is, once Alan puts the pieces together, will he really want to know the truth?

She was shattered, her past erased by pain, her voice stolen by trauma. He was a ruler-not just of politics but of the shadows where justice was a debt paid in blood. Ruthless to those who took justice for granted, yet never cruel to the innocent. At an early age, he learned one truth-power commands justice. Without it, you're nothing. That night, their worlds collided. He found her-battered, nameless, drowning in silence. He should've walked away. But something about her... felt familiar. A forgotten memory. A name lost in time. A connection buried beneath scars. She had no past she was willing to share. He had a childhood he never let go of. But fate doesn't ask for permission-it rewrites the story in the most ruthless ways. Some scars don't just heal... they reveal. And when the truth surfaces, will it mend what was lost or destroy them both? A story of pain, justice and an unexpected love that blooms in the darkest places.
