{REWRITING N PROGRESS!! - 13/25 have been rewritten. you've been warned} ---- ---- --- ---- --- Elysian Monroe held one conviction above all others: she simply couldn't believe in love.

Exhausted from the emotional toll of their relationship, she found that her sole focus should be on her daughter. At least, that's what she had convinced herself.

As she interacted with Elysian, her curiosity began to deepen, compelling her to explore the layers of the woman sitting across from her-Elysian Monroe.
