Her throat tightened, eyes misted, as if she could will reality to transform. She read it again, hoping the words might change under her gaze. But they remained the same, unyielding in their cruelty. The invitation slipped from her fingers, fluttering like a burned-out matchstick onto the marble floor. Aidan had belonged to her for two years, their lives knitted together in a shared future. Their dreams had unraveled just three months ago when he claimed he needed "space." Apparently, his "space" included a dazzling engagement ring and her sister's triumph.

Her heart nearly stopped. “You’re successful now,” she said. “You have everything. Why would you want the same girl you left behind?” “Because I never stopped loving her.” The room felt suddenly smaller. Dangerous. Hope was a dangerous emotion for Evelyn. “I don’t believe you,” she said. “You don’t have to,” Lincoln replied. “But I’m not giving up this time.” Her chest tightened again. Every man she had dated after Lincoln had been an attempt to replace something that could never truly be replaced.

For one terrible second, I thought I'd said too much — then Matteo looked at me with an expression so raw it nearly shattered my composure entirely. "Elena…" "I know," I whispered quickly. "I know it's unrealistic." "That's not why I reacted." "Then why?" A long, painful silence followed before he finally answered. "Because I imagine it too." The confession hollowed me out instantly, not relief, not happiness, but something deeper and far more dangerous, because once two people begin dreaming about impossible futures together, the eventual loss becomes catastrophic.

You’re making it sound like it’s the worst thing in the world. Just imagine it—a forbidden workplace romance, secret glances, and the tension! Oh, how thrilling! The babysitter and the boss.
