Melisa had always been like a little ray of light in Thena's life, a constant source of joy and laughter. Thena had cherished every moment they had together, and the love she had for her sister was deep and unwavering.

 Despite the deep love Thena had for Melisa, the betrayal of sleeping with Thena's fiancé was a dagger to the heart. The pain was like a fire, burning away their shared closeness. It was a hurt that Thena knew would never fully heal, an unforgivable act that threatened to sever the bond they had built over the years.

The question lingered in the air, unspoken but palpable. Would Thena find happiness again after this devastating betrayal? Or would the wounds left by Melisa be too deep to heal, forever stained in the shadow of what could have been?

Would Thena ever find love in the arms of another, or would the memory of Melisa's betrayal cast a permanent shadow over any future relationships?

The Sunshine Effect by riareadsz
17 parts Ongoing
Aurora Nash is a ray of sunshine wrapped in a smile that can light up any room. With her bright blonde hair, infectious laughter, and a wardrobe full of ridiculously cheerful sundresses, she makes everyone feel at ease. But beneath the vibrant exterior, Aurora carries struggles she keeps locked away-pressures to maintain her perfect persona and emotional burdens she refuses to share. No one sees the cracks beneath the sunshine, and she intends to keep it that way. Blake Grayson is the exact opposite. Cold, distant, and perfectly content keeping the world at arm's length, he's built walls no one dares to break through. His teammates call him Grayson, and that's the way he prefers it-detached, untouchable. He's been let down too many times to trust easily, and the last thing he needs is an overly optimistic roommate barging into his carefully controlled life. When an unexpected housing mix-up forces them to share a dorm, Aurora is determined to make the best of it. Baking cookies, leaving uplifting notes, and refusing to let Blake's icy demeanor wear her down, she throws herself into being the ideal roommate. But Blake isn't interested. He avoids her at every turn, convinced that keeping his distance is the only way to stay in control. Yet, as much as they try to resist it, their worlds begin to collide. Slowly, cracks form in the walls they've both built-Blake's bitterness softening under Aurora's relentless warmth, and Aurora finding unexpected comfort in Blake's quiet presence. What starts as a reluctant cohabitation turns into something deeper, something neither of them saw coming. Because sometimes, the people we least expect are the ones who end up saving us.
