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]

Suffering

Last night was pure, unrelenting torture. Hell, even. I don't know how much longer I can keep this up without losing my mind—or my dignity. Every second I spend pretending everything is fine feels like a betrayal to myself, to her, and to whatever fragile friendship we're holding onto.

The truth is, I'm nearing my breaking point.

Because last night? Last night was unbearable. Watching her dance, her body moving like it was made for the music, her laughter ringing in my ears even hours later—it was all too much. And then sharing a room with her, hearing the soft sound of her breathing as she slept, knowing she was only a few feet away but completely out of reach? It's the kind of agony that leaves a man desperate.
