He is infuriatingly sweet. The final arrangement pulls at my chest. Fragile, pale pink apple blossoms are woven through a sea of deep blue river-lilies. This bundle is bound simply with leather cord, left unarranged so I can trim the stems myself, just as I did while Beckett watched me in the kitchen. I unfold the final card. Fallon, Apple blossoms bring a taste of forbidden temptation, ensuring you Forget-Me-Not. Please. Don't. Yours, Beckett Hollis

Vivian sat alone in the shadowed corner of the bar, watching strangers drift beneath the amber glow of the lights. She could not believe she had actually fallen for a rumor. “The real reason the Hayes and Carter families postponed the wedding? Sebastian’s ex was kidnapped. He’d rather call off the marriage than leave her to die.” One reckless sentence was all it took for her to book the first flight to Harbor City. Sebastian was the untouchable heir everyone admired—a fixture on the covers of financial magazines and the polished businessman delivering keynote speeches at charity galas. What could a man like him possibly be doing in a place like this? Vivian shook her head, set down her g

One after hearing the lie that Eirlys had supposedly left the village. That one... That one almost broke me completely. «Little Wildflower, They tell me your cottage is empty. They tell me you have gone somewhere no one can find. I do not believe them. You once told me wildflowers never truly disappear. They simply bloom somewhere unexpected. I will keep looking.» My vision blurred with tears.

Maria embraced her, and Bloom melted into the hug, feeling safe and cherished. “I’ve been so lost...” “There’s no more lost, only found,” Lily interjected, stepping closer with an encouraging smile. The colors around her intensified, the flowers blooming more brightly as they swayed in rhythm with her heartbeat. Bloom felt a sense of euphoria wash over her, the weight of her previous life lifting. The warmth of her family enveloped her, creating a sanctuary from the chaos of her reality. With each passing moment, the illusion pulled her deeper into its embrace. “This is it,” Bloom thought, a smile spreading across her face. “This is what I’ve always wanted a life filled with love and happine

The roses are blooming. The oak tree is tall. "I miss you," I say. "I know." "Do you miss me." "Every day. But missing is not the same as being gone. I am right here. In the tree. In the roses. In the bench. In the dirt. In the air. In you." "I know." "Then stop talking to me like I am gone. Talk to me like I am here." "I do not know how." "You are doing it right now." I close my eyes.

The city outside the window does not know and does not need to. The October light is coming up over the Gràcia rooftops. The second life, in its full flower, entirely itself. Still blooming. — The End -

Said with my eye for fashion, I shouldn't throw away my shot to grow. The email sat there in my inbox, like the one bright spot in all this mess. *** I drove back to my small rented apartment. Not big, but clean, quiet—mine. I turned off my phone, peeled off the heavy wedding dress, and washed the makeup off my face.

On the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, a group of bandits stormed into my home. They robbed us of everything we owned and burned our estate to the ground. Then they used my six-year-old sister as leverage, forcing me to show myself. More than a dozen bandits dragged me back to their hideout and tortured me for three days and three nights before selling me to a brothel. I had thought about dying, but even death was beyond my reach. When I was at my most desperate, Duke Landon Knight paid for my freedom and asked if I was willing to go home with him. After crawling through the darkness for so long, I suddenly saw a light that had never gone out. Three years into our marriage, I once as

On the day of my marking ceremony, my twin sister suddenly returned to the pack. To pick her up, my parents, my brother, and even my mate all abandoned me. While Vivian proudly showed off a photo of herself surrounded by everyone on the pack forum, I tried to reach them through our mind link. That was when I discovered that they had already blocked me. My mate, Damian, was the only one who called me. He only said one thing. "Stop making a scene. The marking ceremony can be held another time, but Vivian rarely gets the chance to come home." As the whole pack jeered at me, I calmly canceled the marking ceremony. After returning home alone, I wrote a new number in my diary. [100.] That

I can see flowers blossoming around a person when they fall in love. The stronger their love, the more beautiful the flowers. When Ann Liston proposed to me when I was 22, 99 white camellias had blossomed around my feet, stretching down the whole street. Seven years later, the flowers began to wither. Even so, she insisted that love always fades anyway, whereas companionship and responsibility were far more precious. That was why she no longer sneaked kisses when I'm asleep, but still came home punctually every day. That was why she no longer prepared surprises for me, but added my name into every estate. Even if work was busy, she'd spare a whole day for me every month. I was convinc
