His Artful Obsession
By @john1208
Years after a devastating betrayal crushed her artistic soul and left her heartbroken, struggling artist Elara Vance finds herself facing the man who walked away: ruthless CEO Kaelen Thorne. The community art hub she’s poured her life into, a vibrant canvas of hope for countless budding artists, is slated for demolition by his massive corporation. Desperate, Elara must re-enter Kaelen's orbit, battling memories that sting like fresh paint on an old wound. His presence is a storm, his tailored suits a stark contrast to the carefree student she once knew. His eyes, once full of a shared dream, are now steel, his touch a dangerous current that threatens to ignite forgotten passions and send a jolt through her very being. She needs his signature, his help, but his price is steeper than she imagined, demanding not just her time, but a piece of her art, a piece of her soul. If she fails, not only will her beloved haven be lost forever, but her already fractured heart might shatter beyond repair, consumed by the shadow of the man who still holds the brush to her deepest fears and the key to her past.
