gettingbacktogether

Adrian Cole has power, money, and fame, but he no longer has Maya. She left without giving any explanation, after several disappointments. He assured her he would attend her art show, but missed it due to a business deal. She claimed that she did not care about his money; she was disappointed by his lack of attention. The argument they had was brief, but the silence that followed was deep. She gathered her belongings and left. He believed she would return as she had in the past, but she did not. Weeks later, Adrian sees Maya’s painting of a man who resembles him, but with his eyes closed. This discovery deeply affects him. He purchases the painting under a different name. He wanted to see her. She tried to ignore him, but he contributed to her art fair; he helped with tasks like hanging lights and carrying boxes, hoping to prove he was more than just a wealthy man. Maya appears to have a quiet life, and Adrian understands he is the chaos she left behind. When she received a letter threatening to close her gallery, he stepped in, not with financial support, but by standing quietly beside her. The truth eventually comes up: the deal that caused him to miss her show was not business-related. He had been secretly purchasing her childhood home, renovating it to surprise her. She became emotional, not because of the house, but due to the time it took for him to reveal this. He expresses his fear that she might think he was trying to buy her affection. She reassures him that she never desired his wealth; she only wanted him. They share a kiss in the rain in front of her gallery, both drenched and laughing, feeling a newfound sense of freedom.

"I love you, okay?" ... her voice broke as she stared up at Nur's face. His eyes widened, chest tightening as he stared back at her, at the magnitude of her words. Tears clung to Ayse's lashes, his wife who he supposedly contract married. From the very first day they locked eyes, he loved her but not even for a second, he would have thought she would fall for him. This was Deniz Hakan Nur--The sole heir to the multibillion-dollar company, he who built empires with his bare hands. He had ice in his veins and ruled with an iron fist. Men trembled under his gaze; women drove to him.  A man whose ears were deaf to the pleadings of many. Some called him a bastard, and for some he was just their "son"  His father, Emre Yunus Nur, handed him the keys to the Nur's estate. Well pleased and trusted that his son will continue his reign. After the ceremony, his mother had come to him.  Conversing to him on state matters and the "future" "How his job wasn't only proceeding his father's company but to also produce an heir" Nur stared at his mother's unreadable face; he shook his head and sternly rejected even a thought on such matters.  Though months passed. One faithful night, he received the news.  "Mr. Hakan, your mother has passed away" Nur was left heartbroken; he fled from U.K and quickly arrived at Istanbul via his private jet.  The car clicked opened as he made his way in the magnificent "Nur estate" Where he would find his "relatives" people who he had lost connection to the day his parents married. They weren't well off back then yet lived happily.  He paid them no mind and walked towards the center where his mom's coffin was.  Clutching around the coffin, tears sprung out. His mother, the only one who he could rest his head on the shoulders, lazily talk about his day. She had left him. The funeral has ended. Meanwhile Nur sat at his study, blue eyes flickering under the warm glow. Just then--the door to his study clicked as then entered, Ali Demir, his father's advisor, now his. The silver-haired man walked to him, hands clutching at piles of documents. The man then conversed to him on the future and that to attain his will, he must marry. Nur's face turned pale, marriage--A chapter that he had closed long ago. Ali continued, "the bride had also been selected" His jaw flexed as he stared back at the ceiling, "Did you...? Ali shook his head, "I wouldn't dare... if it wasn't the very own wish of your late mother" Nur sighed, a part of him was uninterested and the other part? merely curious to who it was? Ali continued, the bride is from one of the Kaplan family branches. "Who...is it? Nur's voice came out, flustered. Ali's mouth parted, "Ayse Azra Yildiz" Nur's eyes widened, his chest tightened.

From the moment she was born, every whisper of the wind and every flicker of the fire in her eyes foretold that she would be the first female Alpha in her pack’s long history. A leader not only strong in body but unshakable in spirit. She grew up knowing that her path was destined to be a great Alpha who would lead her people with pride, protect her territory with honor, and carry the weight of her pack on her shoulders without faltering.

On the night before her eighteenth birthday the sacred day when her wolf would finally awaken and her true power would rise her world was shattered beyond recognition. Under the pale glow of the moon, what should have been her moment of hope and transformation became a night of betrayal and violation. Scarred in both body and soul, she was torn apart by someone she thought was nothing more than a passing stranger, a mere human. A man whose face haunted her dreams and whose touch carved fire into her skin. But the truth is darker than she ever imagined. Her attacker was no ordinary human at all. He carried within him the blood of legends. He was the last heir of the royal Bloodline Pack, a lineage older, stronger, and more feared than any other.
