"All you did was break my heart, over and over again. And all I did was forgive you, over and over again." From a place of gunshots and flags, I was the minority that made it into college. Others felt as it they didn't have a choice, other than to stay back and slang dope on the corners of Atlanta. My closest friend was caught up in that life as well. Too deep in I couldn't change her mind to save her. She wanted to be save but she also felt as if she didn't have another choice. That's when the lies began, betrayal, and blood. I knew I was too late when I saw the red flag draped around her ankle. Trying to protect her, I put my own life in danger. However, I had my own life to focus on... But my love for her never left.

16 parts Ongoing Mature
Antara Sharma I promised myself I wouldn't do this again. But somehow, he's gotten under my skin. Not in the way you'd expect, though. It's the way he's always there-pushing, questioning, caring. The way he makes me laugh when I don't want to, or how he sees through me in ways that make me feel seen. I promised myself I wouldn't let someone in again, but he's different. And that's the problem. I've been down this road before, opening up and trusting someone, only to end up broken. But this time, with him, it feels different. It feels... right. The question is, can I let myself believe in a second chance? Can I trust my heart, this time, to find its way home? Aiden Asher I want her. Not in some fleeting, shallow attraction. I want all of her - her laughter, her pain, the moments when she's radiant with joy and the times when she's buried behind the walls she's built so meticulously around her heart. I want to be the one to tear them down, brick by brick, not to leave her exposed, but to show her she doesn't have to carry it all alone. I told myself I'd wait. That maybe she needed more time, more space. But time hasn't changed a thing. It's only made it harder. Because the truth is, she's the only one I've ever wanted, and I'm done pretending like I can stay away. Antara Sharma, a fiercely independent lawyer haunted by betrayal, meets Aiden Asher, a charismatic entrepreneur who has loved her from a distance. As their paths intertwine, both must confront their pasts and navigate the complexities of their very different lives. Will they embrace the chance for love, or will fear keep them apart?

"I don't love you," I declare, my voice steady but my resolve wavering. He smiled at me, though his expression was tinged with pain, tears pooling in the depths of his eyes. "I knew it, you still love me so much." I was rendered speechless by his declaration, my efforts to conceal my emotions proving futile as he effortlessly deciphered the truth written in my eyes. "Say it, just once, that you love me, my Sweetheart. Just once, please," he pleaded. I finally surrendered, tears misting my own eyes as all rational thoughts scattered, "I love you. I never stopped loving you." "And I love you infinitely more," he declared, leaning closer towards my lips. I placed a trembling hand over his mouth, halting him in his tracks, and shook my head slowly. "We can't. It's wrong. We can't betray our partners." *** Two hearts, torn apart by the cruel hand of fate, find themselves face to face after 4 long years. Once college sweethearts, they have now transformed into business partners. People have come and gone, circumstances have shifted, choices have been made, and personalities have evolved. Yet, amidst the upheaval, one thing remains unchanged: their undying love for each other, a relentless longing that consumes them day and night, a yearning to finally claim each other as their own. However, the path ahead is far from simple. Bound by commitments, every move feels like a forbidden dance. Will they muster the strength to resist their burni
