This is not just a story of love. It's a story of awakening - and of the cost of one night in which you meet yourself.
Samuel had grown accustomed to hiding behind masks and rules. He was not a hero, a rebel, or a savior. He simply existed - as best as he could. Until he met her. Agatha crashed into his reality like a glitch in the matrix: beautiful, bold, too perceptive. She was not just a stranger. She was a catalyst. Temptation. The breakdown of the system.
Their journey is a head-on collision with the truth he had been hiding from himself for years.
When time loses its meaning, and neon lights are the only thing holding you from falling into the abyss, the question is no longer who she is.
The question is who you will become when the dawn arrives.

Strawberry
A scent. A scar. A slow-burning fucking romance dressed as nostalgia. It started with a fruit. Not love, not sex - a goddamn strawberry. The kind that looks like it's been kissed by every shade of red your childhood never had. He didn't share it. Didn't speak of it. Just tasted it once, and carried the ache ever since. Years later, she walked in - smelling exactly like that forgotten sweetness. Not perfume. Not fantasy. Just... truth. Sharp, quiet, terrifying truth. The kind that crawls under your skin and whispers remember me when you least want to. He lied to her face. About himself. About the million ways he'd already started unraveling. But she knew. Women like her always know. She stared at him like sin dressed in judgment - and touched his wrist like she already owned his pulse. And he? He was fucked. Because she wasn't just beautiful. She was red. That memory. That craving. And no matter how much he pretended to be in control - she was already in his bloodstream. This isn't a love story. It's a slow possession. By scent. By memory. By her. And it ends exactly how it starts - with him on his knees, and her smelling like fucking strawberries.Complete
