    Summary

    Every Wednesday at 8:30 a.m., renowned criminal defense attorney Maya Bishop sends a box of the most expensive Italian chocolates in Seattle to the same woman who no longer wants her.

    Every Wednesday at 8:30 a.m., Carina DeLuca, owner of Seattle’s most sophisticated chocolate boutique wraps those chocolates in velvet and gold, pretending she’s not invested in the silent war unfolding through handwritten notes and rejected deliveries.

    Maya wins impossible cases for a living.
    Carina builds perfection from cocoa and precision.

    One believes in control.
    The other believes in stability.

    Neither believes in fireworks.

    But when rituals break and power shifts, even gold-wrapped apologies start to taste like surrender.

    This is one of my earliest stories one I wasn’t brave enough to post before.
    But here it is.

    Summary

    Maya returns to Seattle convinced that some decisions are irreversible. Carina has learned to live with the consequences of choices that still weigh heavily, though they are rarely spoken of. When their paths cross again, memories resurface unbidden, resentments fester, and a closeness that destabilizes more than it comforts. Because some stories never truly end.
    And reuniting doesn't always mean reconciliation.

    Summary

    You do not have to be good
    You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert repenting
    You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves
    Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine
    Meanwhile, the world goes on

    - Mary Oliver (Wild Geese)

    Summary

    When Dr. Carina DeLuca decides to have a child, she isn’t in a relationship. She hasn’t found her home in someone else. She is on her own until she brings her daughter into the world. And then, her world becomes her daughter. Her Fiorella.

    Enter Lieutenant Maya Bishop. Just as broken as usual. Just as wary of children and monogamy. But behind those carefully constructed walls there is a heart of gold to match her gold medal.

    When Fiorella’s class gets a tour of Station 19, it brings Maya and Carina into each other’s orbit. The two of them start up something casual because that’s all they’re looking for… right?

    OR the obligatory kid fic we finally are ready to share with you all!
