"Why won't you look at me? Is your 'issue' so severe that you can't even make eye contact with me?" He said cooly, almost in a harsh tone.
I thought of my next words carefully, nervous of how this might end.
"It's every person I make eye contact with; I can feel whenever they're in pain. Whether it's emotional or physical, I can feel it all." I pause and inhale deeply, "And there is only one way to stop the pain. Death. And I don't want to be tempted to kill you."

Flightless Bird
Scarlett Rosalia is trapped in a shadowed world, weighed down by the pain of her past and the heaviness of simply surviving. Each day bleeds into the next, and the freedom of flight-of hope-feels like a distant memory. Alexander Knightly, a billionaire CEO with the world at his feet, is as cold and untouchable as the empire he commands. Hidden behind a mask of ruthless arrogance, he's built walls too high for anyone to climb. He knows nothing of Scarlett's suffering-until she breaks through his barriers, forcing him to confront the man behind the fortune. But saving her comes at a cost. As Scarlett begins to rise, her fragile wings falter, and the tide of despair threatens to pull her under for good. Alexander swore to protect her, but is his world truly safe for her? Can he, with all his power and pride, teach her to fly again? Or will they both fall victim to the weight of their scars? What if the past she's running from isn't the only secret waiting to be uncovered? ------------------------------ Link to my Pinterest Board, which inspired this story: https://pin.it/HFgsvoYComplete

HEARTS OF DIVINE RUIN (The MoonGoddess and The AlphaKing)
BANTER "Damn right, I'm pretty," Luna said with a confident smirk. Her mischievous pride faltered at his response. "I said petty," Alexander's voice was cold but amused, arms crossed over his chest. Her smile sharpened, daring, as she leaned into the banter. "Lucky for you I'm not what I once was, or you'd be spending eternity as my pet puppy." Her words carried a teasing edge, testing him, pushing for a reaction. But Alex's expression darkened, the amusement in his eyes disappearing as he leveled his gaze at her. "Convenient for you gods-twisting the lives of others for your needs." His words, spoken with quiet bitterness, struck a nerve. For a moment, guilt twisted inside Luna as she recalled how those she once called kin-gods, her juniors-had toyed with his life for their selfish desires. Before the regret could settle in, Alexander continued, his tone unwavering. "Maybe that's the reason you're in this condition." The accusation hung heavy between them, cutting through whatever lightness their exchange once held. BREATHLESSNESS In a moment where the tension between them reached its breaking point, Alexander's hand shot forward, grabbing her by the throat. His grip was firm but not cruel-no intent to harm. Instead, he pulled her closer, and before Luna could register what was happening, his lips crashed onto hers. The kiss was deep, forceful, searing through every fiber of her being. She forgot whose air she was breathing, her powerlessness overshadowed by the sheer intensity of his touch, of their connection. In that stolen breath, it was no longer clear who held the upper hand. What happens when a fallen ancient goddess and a love-scarred Alpha collide? When the lines between power, passion, and vulnerability blur, neither can anticipate the outcome. This book , next series of THE STAR CROSSED LOVERS brings you the wild, darkly funny, and irresistibly intense tale .Read to see who ends up holding the power-and whose heart gets broken first.Complete
