> They said she died.
But he could still feel her heartbeat… somewhere.
Keifer Watson sat in the dark, his fingers trembling as they hovered over an old, cracked photo.
Jay—smiling, soft-eyed, alive.
The world believed she was gone.
An accident.
A tragedy.
A girl too young to die.
But Keifer knew better.
He always knew better.
Because love like theirs?
It doesn't end in one headline.
It echoes. It haunts. It burns.
She appeared.
Not in his dreams. Not in his memories.
But in front of him.
Breathing.
Walking.
Alive.
And in that one moment,
time stopped.
Grief cracked open.
And love?
Love came crashing back with all its fury.
But this wasn't the same girl he lost.
Jay was different now.
Harder. Quieter. Hiding something even deeper than her scars.
And Keifer?
He wasn't here just to fall in love again.
He was here for answers.
For justice.
For vengeance.
Because someone tried to kill her.
And they failed.
Now it's their turn to run.

> "You died in front of me, Jay..."
"No, Keifer. I lived... for this."
