Alexander always loved the water even from a young age, he loved the beach, golden sad to gray sky's, the river's catching frogs and walking over logs. But most of all he loved the folklore of the oceans, so much history and questions gone unanswered through the ages. Alexander Grey suba diving professional now, still caries that same spark of interest for fairytales and he brings it to his work place, as a world famous wreck diver. Who could predict what or who he finds under the surface, when he looses his team of divers, that changes his life. For better or for worse...

FADING ECHOES OF US
Alexander Villaventura is a rich teenage boy whose life took a drastic turn after the death of his mother. His world shattered, and so did the way his father treated him. Despite trying his best to live up to his family's expectations, Alexander was always treated like the black sheep of the family. No matter how hard he worked, his efforts were never enough, and he was constantly blamed for things beyond his control. This created a growing distance between him and his father, leaving him to navigate a life filled with emotional turmoil and isolation. William Timothy Montenegro, on the other hand, is a young and successful businessman who was exposed to the world of business and money from an early age. He grew up in the business world, learning from his grandfather, and eventually became the heir to his family's fortune. Though wealthy and well-established, William's life lacked something-something real and personal that went beyond just success and material gain. The fates of these two young men collided when their paths crossed unexpectedly. Though their backgrounds were worlds apart, their shared pain and struggles connected them in ways they never imagined. The moment they met, their lives began to change in ways neither of them expected. For Alexander, William was a strange yet comforting presence-someone who understood the weight of carrying family expectations and the deep loneliness that came with it. Meanwhile, William found himself drawn to Alexander's vulnerability and strength, admiring how the younger man silently carried the burden of his family's expectations. What started as a chance encounter soon evolved into something more. A bond formed between them, a connection neither could deny. As the days went on, both began to realize they were no longer the same people they were before meeting each other.Complete
