59 parts Complete This is the old/ original version of this story (I decided to republish it while I rewrite the new version.)
__________
She always thought she would be trapped in a box, punches, and hits weighing her down, the cold rush of blood drowning the love her parents should've given her.
But even when she escapes...the past haunts her, and the undeniable fear of the unknown etches its way into her heart for eternity.
It's not until a little girl enters her bakery stealing a piece of cake that she lets happiness melt its way into her heart, the little girl's father becomes her armor from the fears that hide behind the deep shadows,
The love, contentment, and safety she never got from her parents were brought tenfold within the both of them, making her realize happiness truly is possible in a world of evil.
***************
Mafia.
It was all he knew for the longest time, everyone knows him as one of the biggest CEOs in New York, But he hides behind the shadows and controls the night as the biggest mafia boss.
His daughter was the only light he saw in the dark world he hid in, he thought his heart wouldn't soften for anyone, but when he meets a sweet bakery owner with the softest heart, he realizes that maybe love is worth the risk,
His heart begins to burn for her, and his mind, body, and whole being gets drowned in all that she is.
They don't realize the true armor that love is, the stone wall it builds beyond the evil that lies behind, it strengthens your weaknesses, and shows the light that hides within.
