Hellbound: The Last Tribute
Destiny is something written in books, a fictitious fantasy. Iβve always believed that what we do today is one step towards our future. We make our own choice, and we decide on who we will be until I met himβElijah Valentin.
He made me question what I know and what I feel. Just his mere presence messed with my head in more ways than one. The push and pull of emotions, the exhilarating feeling every time we crossed paths, and the gut-wrenching agony in my chest when I saw him with someone else. For the first time in my life, I hoped that the fictitious fantasy was real, that he was my destiny.
He stirred my life in beautiful chaos, knocked down the ten-foot wall I built around my heart with just the flick of his fingers. But he also showed me how painful it is to want something that I could never haveβhim.
