Beneath the Stagnant Sky
A race against destiny. A love that defies time. And a price that may be too steep to pay.
Caelum Ybañez is cursed-trapped in time until he grants twenty-five wishes. Eli Almeda is lost-willing to make a deal without caring about the cost. What starts as a simple bargain soon turns into something neither of them expected. But wishes are never free, and some prices can never be undone.
Author's Note:
This story explores love, loss, and the weight of choices. It's about two broken souls finding solace in each other under a sky that never changes. I hope you feel every moment with them. Enjoy reading!
