Summary

"Love can be cruel," he mutters. "I thought it would be the reason I would propose, but it's not. Love never wins, does it?" Cruel. Devious. Twisted love. Love can play games, and we just happen to be the pawns. We play our moves strategically like a game of chess, until it comes to this moment. We can let the world separate us, stop us, pull us apart. We can let this old love between us fray at the edges. If love is a game, then Cato and I are destined to lose. "You're right," I whisper. "But love still exists. Even for a moment." His knuckles brush against my waist, before he decides to pull me flush against his chest. We're close, and burning, and his breath feels like electricity on my skin. In his green eyes, I see remnants of the heavens, the northern auroras flashing illuminating inside of them. He holds a new world inside of him, and I long to be the first to discover it. Cato's nose brushes up against mine, the space between our mouths fading like stardust. "Even for a moment," he murmurs my words against me. At once, our tensions release. ─── ·𖥸· ─── One half of her heart belongs to the man from the stars. The other belongs to the man of smoke and ash. Will Maureen's heart choose to follow the man of the stars? Or will she find peace from the criminal of the streets?

FOR THE READER

𝙇𝙀𝙏𝙏𝙀𝙍 𝙏𝙊 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙍𝙀𝘼𝘿𝙀𝙍

First of all, thank you for opening up this book! You are the main reason I haven’t given up yet, and every bit of support gives me the motivation to continue to write.

I want you to read this romance however you see fit. There’s no pressure to like or comment on chapters. If you want to just read without those obligations, then read! Although, I do love likes and comments, and I do hold each of my known readers close to my heart.

This is a story that I wrote in high school, and am rewriting it to adapt to a bigger audience. Also, I’m working out the plotholes and things that don’t make sense.

This book is rated mature due to strong language and sexual/mature content. This is your warning. I do not place content warnings on chapters.

Places, people, experiences, and world are not real and are purely fictional and are of my own imagination. If you see this story somewhere else please notify me so I can go and kick some ass.

Before you read the story, let me tell you something about this world. It’s a completely fictional metropolis known as New Aberdeen, located in a region of the world known as the American Federation. Life in this world is defined greatly by social status and wealth. Society is manipulated by a few families with control over the main utilities. Those with power thrive, and those without it struggle to climb up the ladder. Family is everything in this world, and mistakes made by family members and parents can linger on one’s reputation and image. It’s just another way the world kicks people back down to the bottom of the ladder.

That’s where you meet Maureen. A servant working for one of the most powerful families in New Aberdeen. Nobody will hire her for another job due to her mother’s scandalous past, and her father is unknown.

Of course, there are others who she meets along the way that challenges everything she knows, and every alliance she has gets puts to the test.

So how far is Maureen willing to fall?

Let 𝒊𝒗𝒚. know what you thought about this chapter!

bushbaby: I love the slightly different spin on the were-world and I love love love reading Jaspers story splashed in-between. I honestly did not love Dev, he had no character growth and no arc I just didnt like who he is as a person and that made it hard to keep going about half way through. Without Jaspers ...
