He seemed to think about my words before speaking. "Over us? Or you think they're watching over you." "I know they're watching over us." My back hit the railing as he stood less than a foot away from me. His lips parted, releasing a puff of smoke into my face. The smell made me feel sick, but I didn't show it. "Mon cœur, no one is watching over us. It's just a fragment of your little imagination," he said bitterly, a cold look passing over his face. He dropped his cigarette, snuffing it out with his shoe.

Falling for the Goddess by Stellatrix04

Sara Hart, a gentle and seemingly soft woman on the outside, hides an independent and clear-headed spirit. She has secretly admired Adrian Blake, a man who defies the typical image of a cold and domineering CEO. Adrian Blake is distant and detached, especially when it comes to women, leaving everyone wondering what kind of woman could ever melt his ice-cold heart. After breaking away from his powerful family, Adrian Blake disappears from the public eye, and people lament the fall of a once untouchable figure. However, in a surprising twist, he reappears at the launch of a new company. During the interview, Adrian Blake casually reveals his wedding ring, answering the host's question with nonchalance, "I didn't want my wife to work so hard to support the family, so I had to step out and do something." Sara Hart, who has hidden her feelings for years, has always chronicled her thoughts in a photo album - a collection of memories and secrets from her school days. At the end of the album is a poem she wrote during a moment of heartbreak: "To love someone is like creating a belief, serving a god that could fall at any moment. But my god will never fall." She carefully set a deadline of two years to keep her emotions in check, awaiting the day when she would face judgment. When she finally reaches the last page of the album, she finds a new line written in a bold and powerful hand: "I give you the loyalty of a man who has never believed in anything." Her god, it seems, has fallen for her. This is a story of hidden love, inner strength, and the unexpected vulnerability of the untouchable.
