Break me softly

My first autumn at university was supposed to be a season of hope, but instead, it became a slow, agonizing wither. I followed the man I loved, believing our shared future would be my sanctuary. But I found only cold reproaches, baseless jealousy, and walls that began to close in. French novels became my only reality; the silence of library halls my only refuge from a world rapidly falling apart. I didn't know that behind my back, an invisible puppeteer was already writing the finale to this drama.
He stepped into my life without knocking, hiding behind the mask of a casual acquaintance and a poisonous whisper, rotting my relationship from the inside out. He was the one holding the match to my life, watching it go up in a brilliant, painful flame. He played God, deciding he had the right to destroy my world to its very foundation-just so he could build his own temple upon the ashes. His "salvation" was soaked in lies, but in moments of total isolation, it felt like the only way out.
He offered a shoulder when I could no longer stand, hiding the truth: he was the one who had swept the floor from under my feet. This is a story of love born from the ashes of manipulation. It's about a man who doesn't know how to ask for forgiveness, and a girl who must decide: can you love the architect of your own ruin?When the masks are stripped away and the truth is laid bare, even the most powerful god must bow before the woman whose life he turned into his personal obsession.
