Losing Macy to death is an experience that can only be described as an excruciating and soul-shattering agony. It's the kind of pain that seeps into my very being, infecting every part of my existence with a numbing emptiness.
Every breath feels like a struggle, every thought a battle against the memories that haunt me. I find myself replaying every moment I shared with her, wondering what I could have done differently, and wishing I could turn back time. I try to cling to the hope that maybe, just maybe, there was something more I could have done to save her, but deep down I know that there was nothing that could have been done.
It's a pain that never truly goes away, a wound that never fully heals. Instead, it lingers, a constant reminder of what was lost, and what could have been.
I will never love again. I will forever stay where Macy left me broken... Rest here with her...
But as soon as I pledged an oath... I heard her whisper, "Love again, Ivan."
That's impossible, Astrid... I will never.

Heated Deceptions: A Collaboration Novel written by heartlessnostalgia and HiroYuu101
How far would you go for the man you love to love you back? For Rylee, she would do anything--even lie about a pregnancy--for North Alvarado.
***
Rylee Addison Sandoval's longtime crush on her brother's best friend, North Alvarado, isn't a secret. It's as embarrassing as they come, even pretending to get lost around the college department just to catch a glimpse of him. Everyone thinks it's unrequited, even Rylee herself, but one drunk night with North changes it all. Grabbing an opportunity to have him forever, Rylee tells everyone she's pregnant with his baby. North is willing to take responsibility for her and the child, but one problem: there is no child. How long can Rylee's deception last until North finally discovers the truth? And will love be enough for him to forgive her...or not?
