💔He loved her first… he just never said it 🫣


💔 The One Who Stayed

Hi my lovely Souls 🤍

I wanted to do something a little different today—share some things I’ve been loving lately and give you a deeper look into the story I’ve been hinting at all week. 👀

Eight months ago, Avalína lost the man she loved.

He sacrificed his soul to save the Realms—
and left her behind to carry the weight of it. 💔

But he wasn’t the only one who loved her.

Tobias has always been there.

Her closest friend.
Her constant.
The one who stayed when everything else fell apart. 🤍

He’s loved her quietly since childhood—
never asking, pushing… or crossing that line.

Because she loved someone else.
But some love stories don’t get to be chosen.

🔥 He’s Not Waiting Anymore

Things are… different now.

Because when your soul starts to fracture—
when the magic that holds you together begins to slip—

you don’t get to pretend everything is the same.

And Tobias?

He’s done pretending. 🔥

He’s still there.
Still choosing her.
And willing to follow her anywhere…

Even if, piece by piece… there’s less of her left to reach. 🖤

😏 What This Story Brings

This is a story about:

✨ Love that waits… until it doesn’t
✨ A heroine whose soul is literally breaking
✨ Magic that lives under the skin
✨ And yes… doors wide open when it finally snaps 🔥

If that sounds like your kind of story…

…and the one waiting for her on the other side. 😈

May your soul fly freely,​

🧳 The Flight We Missed A few years ago, right after travel restrictions lifted during Covid, we planned a family vacation to Puerto Rico. My oldest was nine, and the twins were three. We practiced wearing our masks for the plane ahead of time, and if you’ve ever tried to keep a mask on a three-year-old, you know that’s an adventure all its own. We had two of them! We made it, and the vacation was wonderful. The trip home was another story. Our flight was late getting into Dallas, so we ran to...

🕳️Plot twist: the author fell in a hole. Seáh llaéh, Reader So. I twisted my ankle this week. Nothing heroic about it. It was actually pretty ungraceful. I was walking up the grassy hill at my daughter's therapy session, looked behind me to make sure I had grabbed everything, and stepped into a hole. Down. I. went. Suddenly I was lying on my back in the grass, holding my ankle and wondering why my hip had opinions about it. 😂(turns out I fell on it too and now have a HUGE bruise.) Super. For...
