Until I Met You

AdelaideWhat would you give up for love?I grew up thinking love didn't exist for women like me. Then I met her, Alice Nefertari-a witch at the end of her life. She gave me the ability to heal people, and I thought I'd change the world for the better.And I did, but at the expense of my own life. I spent the next seven hundred years healing people and sacrificing my own happiness for them. After all, my life was no longer my own.Still, out of all the adventures I've had and the people I've faced, I have not found that special connection, the love I was truly craving. A love so deep and so consuming that it hurts. A love that makes me feel like the last seven hundred years had been worth it.Until I met him...MatthewI never had a dad growing up, but I was never without love. I had a mom who sacrificed everything to make sure I had everything I needed. Because of her, I wanted to start my own business. I got my degree and everything. Then she had an accident, and I had to move back home to take care of her. It was my turn to sacrifice everything for what she needed. I got two jobs to pay the bills, and I dedicated all my free time to caring for her.I don't regret ever helping my mom, but I don't know how I can help her and still have time for myself. I have no time for relationships. I don't have time to think about anything else.Until I meet her...
