Wounded Soul; Healed Ghosts (Cosmopolitan Series #1)

----------------------------------

Threiah Airyelle Peñafranda was an untouchable, independent, unshaken, and competitive woman to her core-like she's always two steps ahead. But beneath the armor she wears like second skin, there's a woman stitched by wounds. Her soul was broken because she mastered the art of survival, not softness.

Then, she met Florensyd Icarus Domingo-without even knowing he plays an integral part in her past. He was her academic rival by reputation but also became her lover by surprise. Meeting him makes her days lighter, brighter, and even happier. With him, she realized that the world may only see her fire, but Domingo tried so hard to learn how to hold her ashes.

However, life has a cruel way of testing love. Because somewhere between their intensified love, something begins to shift. And when the pain became too much to bear, she made the hardest decision: she left. And it was because the pain was splintering-sharp, and merciless. Every day with him had started to feel like walking barefoot across broken glass. So she did what she thought was right. She left someone she wanted to hold on so...dearly.

Now, as she faces the quiet aftermath-the ghost in her closet, she wonders: if leaving was supposed to save her and the man she loves, why does it feel like she tore out a piece of her own soul to do it? Why does losing him ache just as deeply as the wounds she was running from?

Was the past that tarnished our soul truly stays buried, or if love-once real, ever really lets go?
