Love.
Love Morales didn't always despise her name. But the first time she fell in love, she fell. Just fell, with no one to catch her. Contrary to her name, she started hating her name. Herself. Everything around her. She was young and vulnerable. She didn't know the ways of the world. So, it wasn't just a "heartbreak" that altered her from Love to Dahlia.
Ares. Just Ares. No middle name, no last name. No, he wasn't an orphan. With his father always away for "business", or rather Mafia business, and him still not knowing the whereabouts of his mother, he grew up pretty much without a family. Except for his best friend (whom he refuses to accept, is his best friend), Ethan King, Ares would have probably burnt the world down.
When it's time for Ares to take over the Mafia, he collides with the daughter of his father's right-hand man. Dahlia. When they collide, they feel sparks between them. Not sparks of love, not sparks of hatred.. sparks of indifference.
Can Dahlia show Ares what, or rather who Love is? And can Ares find it in him to love when he's never been told he's loved and wanted?

Ivory looked into his eyes but trailed along down to his full lips. "I told you we weren't done." Killian saw as her eyes trailed down to his lips and looked back into his eyes. He inwardly smiled as he realized she wasn't all that robotic and felt the mutual attraction. "What does that mean?" Ivory said as his face leaned closer into her own and stopped when their noses touched. Nuzzling his nose into her's, Killian had to focus on his breathing trying to control himself. "It means exactly what I said it means." "What exactly is tha-" "-shut up, Ivy." Growling at her, Killian disrupted her sentence and pressed his lips against hers.
