"I'm sorry I loved you." I whispered.
He stared at me for a moment before whispering back, "I'm sorry that I made loving me a bad thing."
*************
Five long years have passed since he last saw clover. Her broken body on that hospital bed, since he read her note that confessed the depth of her feelings. He attempted to bury their shared history, to forge ahead, yet the weight of culpability for her fate remained heavy upon his heart.
Then, one fateful night, their paths converged once more, reigniting a flame of passion between them. Will this inferno of desire rekindle their shattered souls, stitching together the fragments of their past? Or will it serve only to consume them alive, leaving nothing but ashes in its wake?

OBSESSION. too personal
This could have been a gentle story for quiet autumn evenings. But it shattered against Morphine - a chapter that will not let you stay indifferent. And now, you'll understand why. This is not a story about perfect love. It's about healing through pain, about love that blooms after trauma, and about the fragile line between salvation and obsession. She is a woman rebuilding herself from the ashes. Not strong - simply real. A mother. A fighter. A writer whose words cut deeper than truth itself. She doesn't want to be someone's muse - she only wants to be understood. He is the man the world worships... and fears. A legend. A symbol of an era. But behind the fame, there's a man haunted by his own darkness. Together, they are fire and gasoline - two broken souls learning how to love without losing themselves. Their story isn't a fairytale. It's an age-gap dark romance about redemption, grief, and the courage to love again. With touch. With words. With silence between the lines.Complete
