In the heart of a divided world, two worlds collide-one of privilege and wealth, the other of struggle and survival. Elena Rodriguez is a bright, beautiful girl who has everything she could ever want. As a member of the powerful Rodriguez family, she lives in a lavish mansion in New York, a part of town where money flows freely. But behind her polished exterior, 17-year-old, Elena feels trapped in a world of expectations. Where appearances matter more than anything, and real connection seems out of reach. Henry Burton, on the other hand, lives in London-a forgotten part of town where survival is a daily battle. The streets are filled with thief's, criminal, gangsters, kids who scrape by any way they can. Henry, a determined and resourceful 18-year-old, spends his days working odd jobs and stealing just to make ends meet. His life is a constant struggle for dignity and basic needs. Their worlds couldn't be more different, until one fateful encounter shatters the walls that divide them. When Elena accidentally crosses paths with Henry, she finds herself caught in a situation that exposes her to a harsh reality she's never known. Where, the streets that she thought were filled with life and beauty, is exposed with danger and uncertainty, and people are defined not by their names or wealth, but by their ability to survive. Elena meets Henry, a boy whose resilience and intelligence spark something within her-something she's been longing for: authenticity. Their connection is instant, intense-and forbidden. But as their relationship grows, so does the pressure from society. The division between the two becomes impossible to ignore, and their relationship is put to the ultimate test. Can two people from such different worlds ever truly understand each other? And, if they do, is their connection strong enough to survive the harsh realities of a world that thrives on division?

If you like fantasy/romance you should try my story The Flower Longed Death. It is written a LOT better than this one is! -------------------------- "You must've got the wrong impression if you keep expecting to get away with shit like this, so let me make things clear," He says with a calm smile. He moves his face closer to mine, losing the lighthearted grin that had previously cooled my nerves. I get a better look at the scar across the bridge of his nose, and the vague one X'ed onto his lips. Now I want them even more. -------------------------- Eighteen year old Mileva never thought her past would catch up to her after leaving years ago to live in New York City. She didn't think she wanted it to. However, she also didn't think she would cross paths with a guy like Valen, the Italian Mafia's heir. He's only twenty three, but he's somehow the most attractive and intimidating man she has ever met, let alone heard of. Mileva battles her anxiety adjusting to this new life of hers, while Valen is just getting comfortable with his new obsession. -------------------------- Word count: 110,000 There is a lot of graphic content, so please read carefully! List of specific warnings can be found in the introduction. The writing gets better as the story progresses, I promise.
