"They say heartbreak kills. She took that literally."
Once, Y/N was full of warmth, laughter, and love.
Once, she had someone who made the world feel like home.
Once, she was ready to spend forever with Wanda Maximoff.
Then Wanda left-without warning, without goodbye.
And Y/N shattered.
Crushed beneath the weight of a pain too vast for one soul to carry, she made a devastating choice: to give up her heart. Not metaphorically-literally. With it went her feelings, her memories, and every trace of the girl she used to be. What remained was something else entirely.
Efficient. Ruthless. Heartless.
A myth cloaked in shadow. A name whispered in fear.
Years later, on opposite sides of a deadly mission, Wanda crosses paths with the assassin the world fears most-unaware she's staring into the eyes of the woman she once loved. But when the phantom pain of a forgotten past begins to stir, and a heart long buried begins to beat again, the two are pulled into a storm of old wounds, dangerous magic, and love that refuses to die.
But how do you save someone from becoming a monster...
when you're the reason they broke?
Y/n, a cheerful and passionate architect, is hired to redesign the Avengers compound. Wanda, still mourning Vision, sees Y/n's positivity as a frustrating distraction and avoids her as much as possible. However, Y/n's insistence on including Wanda's input forces them to work together. Wanda begins to notice Y/n's genuine kindness and depth beneath her sunny demeanor, realizing that Y/n's warmth might be exactly what she needs to mend her broken heart.
These memories are mine.... real and deeply personal. This book is part of my healing, shaped by the loss of my grandmother and the experiences of my childhood, especially with my mother.
