Wilted Constellations

The Becoming Series #3

Cecelia Quinn Guevarra is a sky full of secrets. She has spent her life hiding from the ghosts of her past, certain that she was a broken thing not meant to be fixed. Then came Arden-a boy made of sunlight and patience. He didn't just want to love her; he wanted to save her. He wanted to build a world where her darkness could finally rest.

Together, they built a universe of their own. For a moment, it was enough. But even the brightest light struggles to reach the deepest parts of the ocean. While Arden tried to stitch their futures together with rings and promises, Cecelia felt herself pulling away. She was a girl haunted by old ghosts, and she feared that becoming his "forever" meant losing the only parts of herself she had left.

The love that was supposed to save them is now the very thing pulling them apart. Arden is reaching for a tomorrow that hasn't happened yet, while Cecelia is still trapped in a yesterday she can't forget. And the constellations that once guided them begin to wilt, and the weight of their secrets and the constant compromises begin to scratch the very essence of their connection.

Some loves are written in the stars. Others are destined to fade.

Now, as their sky begins to fall, Cecelia must face a heartbreaking choice. She must decide if she can let his light lead her home, or if she is destined to be a star that burns out before it ever truly shines.
