I heard him ask taking me off my thoughts. "Huh?" "You were smiling." "Oh. I was...." "Can I kiss you?" He asked looking at my lips. "Here?" I asked now, my heart beating hard against my chest, our first kiss could happen now. "Yeah?" He nodded, I could see his Adam's apple go up and down as he swallowed, I bit my lips, nervously. I smiled approvingly, almost getting up from the bench where I sat. "No sit." He said coming closer to sit next to me. The bench was quite small so we were so close to each other.

However, at birth she was kissed by the goddess of light and blessed with the ability of a skin weaver, capable of healing any wound or affliction. Betrayed by her family, she's sold for gain and shipped across the world to a brothel, into the hands of a selfish businessman who exploited her abilities for years.

But that’s only the cherry on top, his obsession is wicked. ~ (Excerpt) "You want to kill me and at the same time, you do not" Isadora’s features were stern and the cold look in her eyes almost forced a laugh out of him. She got more frustrated by his silence, choosing to insult him and be done with it. “Does a madman not know what to do with a mannfae?” “I can think of a thousand ways to kill you," Kraven replied in a velvety voice. "Like first throwing you off-board” Isadora's angry expression morphed into one of horror. “But that would be terrifying, wouldn’t it? Drowning in the dark sea, unable to breathe” he voiced as if he could vividly picture it—and him on board watching. "Tell me, Isadora" A cold chill crawled down her spine. "If I let you go, where would you run to, hm? I told you already this realm isn't kind to outcasts like us" "I'm not like you!" He chuckled lightly. "We're alike. What use could you be to this forsaken realm?" "What use could you have of me?" she asked shakily. “Oh love, I can think of many things but I’m not sure you’re ready… yet” ~ A/N: This is Dark Romance, don't expect a sweet ML! Cover is mine!

Prologue: In the heart of Metropolis X, a city that thrived on speed and adrenaline, lived Alex – a skilled and fearless racer with a lineage steeped in the legacy of illegal racing. With vibrant hair that mirrored the neon lights of the city and a determination that matched the roar of engines on the tracks, she was a force to be reckoned with. Alex's passion for racing was unmatched, but her single-minded dedication raised concerns among her friends. They worried that her life revolved entirely around the racetracks, leaving little room for love and companionship. Although Alex brushed off their concerns with a confident smile, deep down, she wondered if there was more to life than the thrill of the race. One evening, while working on a coding project at her home computer, Alex was annoyed by a series of irritating pop-ups that flooded her screen. As a top-notch hacker, it was unusual for her to encounter such nuisances. Curiosity got the better of her, and she investigated the source of these pesky interruptions. Among the relentless pop-ups, one stood out – an ad for a mysterious app called "The Love Algorithm." With each click, the app persisted, asking if she was ready for love. Initially dismissing it as a scam, Alex repeatedly declined the offer. Yet, the persistent pop-ups continued, each time with a more intriguing question about her desire for love. Finally, with a hint of a smirk, Alex decided to entertain the app's request. After all, she was confident in her hacking abilities and didn't believe any online platform could outsmart her. She completed her personal profile on the Love Algorithm app, treating it as a fun diversion rather than a genuine pursuit of love. As she clicked the final button, an unexpected message flashed across her screen: "Congratulations, Alex. You have a match!" To her surprise, she was connected with a mysterious individual named Max. Intrigued by the mystery and eager to know more, Alex decided to reach out to Max. Their initial conversations were light-hearted, filled with playful banter and shared interests in speed and adventure. As they chatted, an inexplicable connection seemed to grow between them, drawing them closer despite their initial skepticism. As days passed, the connection between Alex and Max deepened. They found themselves sharing more intimate thoughts, feelings, and aspirations. Each conversation seemed to spark a hidden longing within Alex, making her wonder if there was something more to this chance encounter. Then, on a fateful day, Alex and Max agreed to meet in person. As they shook hands for the first time, an inexplicable sensation rippled through their minds. It was as if an invisible thread connected their hearts and souls, awakening a dormant force that both had never encountered before. In that moment, Alex knew that the Love Algorithm had been activated, and their destinies were intertwined in a way she could never have imagined. Their meeting was no mere coincidence; it was the catalyst that set "Speed of Hearts" in motion, leading Alex on an extraordinary journey of love, self-discovery, and unlocking the true potential of her heart and racing skills.
