Ash is trying to rebuild her life after leaving a toxic relationship. A new job feels like a fresh start... until she discovers she'll be working with Eli - the guy who once humiliated her and the last person she ever wanted to see again.
But the Eli she meets now isn't the boy she remembers.
He's patient.
He's kind.
He's trying.
Forced to work together, tension slowly becomes trust, and trust becomes something neither of them expected. But when the past comes back to hurt her, Ash has to decide whether she's ready to let someone stand beside her - or whether she's safer alone.
TW: Contains themes of emotional and physical abuse (non‑graphic), trauma recovery, panic attacks, stalking/harassment, and toxic relationships. All sensitive topics are handled gently.

The Afterthought
Elara Scott believed love was something you built, steady, patient, earned. After a childhood defined by chaos, Jonah Sterling's calm attention feels like oxygen: the quiet check-ins, the small touches, the safety of being wanted. But Jonah, heir to an old money East Coast dynasty and CEO of a powerful tech and security empire, only ever loved one woman. Sofia is the ghost his family still worships, the future he never stopped craving. When the board demands a "settled" image, Jonah chooses Elara not with devotion, but with convenience. In the Sterling world, Elara is an outsider in every room, enduring polished cruelty, public humiliation, and a husband who watches in silence. Even when an unexpected pregnancy gives them a daughter, Isla, Elara remains the wife who was never truly chosen. When Sofia returns and Jonah's attention begins to slip, first from Elara, then from Isla, Elara makes a decision that shatters the perfect façade: she leaves. But divorce doesn't erase Jonah's past. It exposes it, and forces Jonah to face the damage he allowed, the family that enabled it, and the woman who learned to live without him. A devastating, angst-filled story of second choice love, quiet cruelty, and a father fighting to repair the bond he nearly destroyed, after it's too late to save the marriage.

Adam and Kazi
I heard his laugh before I saw her, and I already knew - that loose, unguarded version of it, the one I'd never once heard him aim at me. I found him with my eyes and there he was, all six feet six of him tilted toward Cathie like she was the only thing in the room worth standing near, his sharp eyes tracking her face with an attention I had spent three years quietly starving for. Something in my chest didn't break. It just went still. I set his coffee down on the bench - oat milk, no sugar, memorized without him ever asking - and walked away.Concluida
