PAWN OF EMOTIONS
in a quiet European town, wrapped in ivy-clad stones and the slow chime of chapel bells, three lives drift into collision.
Andrew, gentle and observant, has loved Emma for as long as memory allows. They are inseparable—walking to class arm in arm, sipping coffee under fading autumn skies, sharing songs that speak when words cannot. To Emma, he is comfort, familiarity, a constant. But to Andrew, she is everything.
Then Jason arrives.
A stranger with wind in his voice and trouble in his shadow, Jason is everything Andrew is not—charming, reckless, magnetic. His presence unsettles the halls. His eyes find Emma. And Emma, caught in the thrill of the unknown, begins to sway.
As Andrew watches her drift closer to Jason, he tries—quietly, desperately—to hold her gaze, to remind her of the love that never asked for anything but to be near. But to Emma, his tenderness begins to look like interference. And to Jason, Andrew is a silent obstacle easily stepped around.
In a world that feels too old for fairy tales but too fragile for truth, follow the MC in a story of unspoken love, misplaced affection, and the quiet tragedies that unfold when the heart chooses the thunder and overlooks the shelter.
