The enimosity between the two is obvious but with a common goal, they find a way to make it work. Sometime along the way, sparks starts to fly and everything changes when the dark truth is revealed. ______________ *UPDATES: Every Monday of the week* ____________ *The cover image is from pinterest and the creation and template was done with canva*
