The Last of ember's by irene_lit21

When love freezes, can the heart still burn ? Dedication: To the muses that whispered in my ears. Prologue The city's darkness was palpable, a living entity that pulsed with secrets and lies. The skyscrapers stood like sentinels, their windows glowing with an otherworldly light. In this concrete jungle, two figures moved undetected, their paths converging like the threads of a complex tapestry. Axel Vaughn, a ruthless and cunning CEO of Vaughn Security, and Zephryine Everett, a brilliant and fearless criminal lawyer, were about to collide in a dance of power and deception. The air was heavy with anticipation, the shadows trembling with the promise of secrets yet to be revealed. The city held its breath, waiting for the spark that would ignite the flames of chaos and destruction. And then, everything went black. ● In the depths of darkness, where shadows writhe like living things, there exists a truth so profound, it can only be whispered in the silence of the night. A spark remains, a flicker of what once was. A dying ember, warm to the touch, yet cold as the grave. And in this desolate landscape, a heart beats, fueled by the very flames that consume it. Will the fire that once warmed their souls ultimately be their demise? Or will they find a way to rise from their ashes, their hearts forged in darkness, their spirits unbroken? Tropes: Age gap Enemies to lovers Stalker romance He falls first and harder Lost and found Self discovery Forbidden attraction Forced proximity Secret identity Redemption Arc Billionaire romance
