[COMPLETED 4/15/22 - SHORT STORY] Olive's upbringing was an unfortunate yet successful one. Starting at a very young age, Olive Semone witnessed the most unpleasant of things. From murders and robberies to basic torture. Olive could not stand the violence but her father always said it was in her blood. That she would have to take his place when he meets his end. But Olive could never wrap her head around this. Leading the mafia part of the East side of Boston. Is this really the life she wanted? Carmine Vasquez had quite the opposite life. He lived in solitude growing up. He was never allowed to leave, never allowed to have company, and never allowed to go near windows. Carmine's parents were scared of everything beyond the window panes. Carmine grew sick of this and vowed to become strong and to protect his family so they could live without the fear of being hurt. On the day of his 18th birthday, he joined the Boston police academy. Trained hard and climbed the ranks fast. He never second guessed a decision or an arrest in his field. Well, that was until he met her.

He grew up in warmth-the scent of fresh bread, the rhythm of kneading dough, the simplicity of life in his father's bakery in France. His parents divorced when he was young, but he stayed, drawn to the quiet artistry of baking. He had no desire for power, only the satisfaction of creating something beautiful. She was raised in a world of crime. Her father, a feared and powerful man, taught her that weakness was fatal. She spent her life by his side, learning to lead with intelligence and ruthlessness. She was not just his daughter-she was his heir. Their marriage was a deal. Her father arranged it to secure an alliance, choosing him precisely because he was neutral, harmless. He wanted no part of their world, and she had no interest in his. They were opposites-fire and flour, control and creation. Yet, over time, she saw his devotion to his craft, his ability to create beauty in a world she had only ruled with force. He saw the weight of expectation she carried. She didn't need saving. He didn't want power. But in a world built on blood, she was the queen-and he became the only man unafraid of her crown.
