Stellar Redemption: Leona's second chance.

After tragically falling victim to her husband's violence and betrayal, Leona finds herself inexplicably thrust back in time, granted a precious second chance to rewrite the narrative of her life. Determined to seize this opportunity and carve a path solely for herself, she resolves to steer clear of entanglements with men, vowing to prioritize her own well-being above all else. However, fate has other plans as Zane Orion unexpectedly enters her life, his presence disrupting her carefully crafted solitude. Despite her initial reluctance, Leona finds herself drawn to Zane's magnetic charm and genuine kindness. Yet, the scars of her past still haunt her, casting a shadow of doubt over the possibility of opening her heart once more. As Leona grapples with conflicting emotions and the fear of vulnerability, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery, torn between the desire for love and the lingering trauma of her past. Will she ultimately find the courage to embrace love anew, or will the ghosts of her past continue to hold her captive in their grip? [Background is an Interstellar/Space opera world, so CEO urban but in space and better technology]

The music flows around us, and Zane's hand at my back feels like a steady anchor, pulling me closer. The space between us feels electric, charged with something I can't quite name. I tilt my head to look at him, his green eyes holding mine with an intensity that makes my breath catch. I lose myself in the rhythm of our bodies moving together, in the quiet, unspoken language we share.

But then, the spell breaks. The music shifts, the tempo picks up, and the crowd begins to grow more animated. Zane's gaze flickers briefly to someone across the room—an older man in a sharp suit, likely someone important for his business.

"I have to go." He leans close to me, his breath warm against my ear, and I feel the weight of his hand slipping from my waist. "Stay here. Don't go anywhere. I'll be right back."
