Kara lands herself a new job as caretaker for the Luthor's. She's to take care of their youngest daughter Lena, who's been forced to move back in with her mother after a devastating explosion at her job, causing multiple fatalities and her brother's incarceration, nearly killed her too. That's been a year ago and physically, Lena is fine, but she has a severe depression and needs someone to look after her. That's where Kara comes in. During her time with the Luthor's she slowly finds out there's a little more going on, though.

Never before she felt like this, felt safe in someone's arms.
She didn't understand what these feelings meant for her. What it meant for them.
Lena Luthor. Kara Danvers. Best friends, or not?
What are they? And what are these feelings?
Should Kara tell her about her secret? Even her friends don't know about it, just her sister Alex knows. Is it worth the risk? Trusting a Luthor?
Dealing with her traumatic past Lena tries to be "normal". Act normal and be strong. But still, the blond woman confuses her emotions. Can she trust her best friend enough to tell her what happend?
Let the real fight for Lenas soul begin!
