Eclipsed By You

Eclipsed by You
An Elite High School Romance

We've all heard stories of love-the kind that starts with stolen glances, whispered confessions, and hearts beating as one. Stories of soulmates destined to find each other, of passion that burns brighter than the stars.

But what about the love that isn't gentle? The kind that sneaks in, slow and unyielding? The kind that doesn't ask for permission before it consumes you whole?

......

She was supposed to be untouchable. The princess of Italy's ruling mafia family, cold as winter, distant as the moon. A girl who never cared for love, for emotions, for the idea of belonging to someone.

He was supposed to be a playboy. The golden prince of an ancient royal bloodline, arrogant and reckless, his green eyes hiding a storm no one had ever tamed.

They were supposed to be a perfect match. A family deal, an engagement written in ink long before they ever met.

But love was never part of the arrangement.

She doesn't care. He wants her to.
She pushes him away. He keeps coming closer.
She is ice. He is fire.

And as the lines between duty and desire blur, between hatred and something far more dangerous-he realizes one thing.

She may not be his to have, but she is the only one he'll ever want.
