He was never supposed to survive.
She was never supposed to care.
But fate doesn't follow rules-it rewrites them.

James Collins has spent years in the shadows, carrying the weight of a tragedy that stole his family and forged him into something unrecognizable. Haunted by loss, hunted by the government, and fueled by the memory of a sister who never got to grow up, James became a ghost-until Alexandra Wilson walked into his life.

Now, with the past catching up and secrets unraveling, James must choose between the vengeance that defined him and the fragile hope Alexandra offers. Together, they navigate betrayal, bloodshed, and a system that was never meant to protect people like them.

But love isn't enough when survival is a war.

A story of redemption, resilience, and the quiet power of holding on-Run With Me will break you, heal you, and leave you breathless.

10 parts Ongoing
Amelia Hale's life was never hers to control. Married off to a man she barely knew, she found herself in the imposing mansion of Alexander Hale, a man whose cold, distant demeanor left her feeling like a stranger in her own home. At first glance, Alexander appeared to be just another wealthy man, but there was something about him-something hidden beneath his carefully maintained exterior-that Amelia couldn't quite understand. Her family had long considered her a burden, and in an effort to secure her future, they married her off to Alexander. But the mansion that should have been a symbol of security felt more like a gilded cage. Amelia's trauma rendered her unable to speak, and Alexander's silence only deepened her isolation. His coldness was a barrier, a wall between them that seemed impossible to breach. Yet, as time passed, Amelia began to notice subtle changes in Alexander's behavior. There was more to him than met the eye-small acts of kindness, fleeting moments of vulnerability that suggested he wasn't the emotionless figure he seemed. And as their connection deepened, Amelia began to sense that Alexander's life wasn't as it appeared. There were secrets he kept hidden, and she couldn't shake the feeling that his wealth and status were just the surface of something far more complex. As their bond grows in the silence they share, Amelia and Alexander must navigate their painful pasts and unspoken fears. And as the truth begins to unfold, they will both be forced to confront not only the secrets of their past but the possibility of a love they never expected to find. ---
