This cannot be it, I do not know why I am shaking, I feel like i am on the edge of breaking, this cannot be real, you were the one whom I traveled the whole world for, ignored my roots, my background, followed you wherever your footsteps would leave a mark on the ground, I searched for you by your scents, in the streets of Barcelona, when you escaped to Andorra, I followed you, you were not like that, your blue eyes were the reason I kept holding on, I was a nobody, you made me the queen of savagery, remember our beach encounter? When you called a lightning goddess and had the most unforgettable photos? Your poems, are the words I would never stutter, your words made my heart flutter, I was voiceless and you were my voice, I can't believe you. All the love, was just an echo of mine? You never told me you had a brother! A twin! I gave you my white blood, it was a switch that brought us here, a war between a pair of twins and I. Mary Jane dried her tears as she wanted to fall in his arms, but it was too difficult, she was lost, his touch became harsh and his lap became deceiving, it was one kiss, one touch, one laugh, one tear, one lie, one cheat, it was one switch between a pair of twins.

They are filthy, they are broken, and Celina cannot seem to control the hatred burning inside her.

As they dodge bullets, stumble upon an injured enemy pilot, and attempt to escape the hands of the Germans naming them fugitives, Celina must learn to face what she has been too terrified of her entire life. ***Edited by the lovely @jgfairytales

Prologue: (Completed) The girl who once dreamed of freedom now knows nothing but survival. Every day is a fight against the darkness that haunts her, a fight against the fists of a father and the cold cruelty of a stepmother. The home that should have been a sanctuary is instead a prison, and she is its unwilling captive. From a young age, she learned to shut off her emotions, to block out the pain, because if she didn't, it would swallow her whole. In the silence of the house, where every corner is filled with fear, she is nothing more than a shadow, invisible and ignored, except when they need someone to blame. But buried beneath the numbness, a flicker of something remains-something that refuses to die. A longing for a life beyond this suffocating world. She doesn't know it yet, but salvation is on the way. One day, a secret is uncovered: the family she's known her whole life isn't hers at all. There's another family out there, a powerful one, a mafia family, who has been searching for her. They're ready to take her in, to protect her, to give her a life she never imagined possible. But trust doesn't come easy for a girl who's been broken. And even in the arms of a family that loves her, the ghosts of her past will not let her go. The road ahead will be filled with tension, secrets, and the undeniable pull of revenge. She's been taught to feel nothing, but to heal, she must learn to feel again.

‹‹Once upon a time, there was a special child who never aged. To protect it from harm, I hid it within myself, until one day I forgot it was there.›› Adele and Nina, two inseparable sisters, once believed their family was an unbreakable fortress - a safe place where happiness felt eternal. But in a heartbeat, that safety shatters, and their world is forever changed. Their father, their stedfast anchor, has disappeared without a word. The man who once loved them has moved on, leaving them behind. What they don't know is that their world has been turned upside down, and the reality they know is built on lies. For years, they will navigate life under this shadow, viewing their existence through a lens distorted by someone else's deceit, bearing the immense pain of betrayal. But breaking free from this fictitious world isn't easy, for it demands confronting an even harsher truth: the person behind the deception is the one they hold most dear. "Hope is a Gentle Flicker" is a story that explores the fragile dynamics of blended families, the weight of unspoken emotions, and the ways love can become entangled in misunderstandings and hurt. But maybe, amidst the darkness, there may still exist a light - a delicate, flickering light that refuses to be extinguished. A love that, though unspoken, persists, quietly illuminating their path. *** This book is a memoir based on real events from my life. Thank you for joining me on this journey.
