Heartless
Heartless: Displaying a complete lack of feeling or consideration. Eliza Bolton's life was forever altered when a fateful accident left her with more than just a broken right leg. The culprit? Jayvin Black McGill-known for his ruthless ways, a bad boy with a reputation for being both a gangster and a playboy. In the blink of an eye, her world turned upside down, and she lost not only her memory of the accident but also the man behind it-Jayvin himself. Now, Eliza must navigate a world where every piece of her past has been erased, but one thing remains: a twisted obsession that lingers in the shadows of her mind. As she falls deeper into a dark and dangerous spiral, she faces a nightmare that seems to follow her at every turn. Follow Eliza on a harrowing journey through twisted desires, shattered stars, and the wreckage of a life she never saw coming. >¤< "You made this happen, Eliza," Jayvin's voice was low, cruel, as he traced his finger along the edge of her skin. His touch sent a shiver through her, his breath warm against her ear as he spoke again, "Now, I'll make your life hell." Eliza's heart pounded as he lifted his head, locking his eyes with hers. Fear surged through her, but her hands were bound, leaving her with nowhere to run. "The hell I've been living for the past six years," he added, a sinister smile playing on his lips. With every ounce of her will, she resisted, but his gaze burned into her, and the darkness that surrounded them was all-consuming. "Shall we begin..." he whispered, his words laced with a promise of torment that she could no longer avoid.
