This story is a sequel to Roses are Red

Two years since the events of Roses are Red, Lilo and Carbon have come to grow closer to each other more and more. With Lilo now set on having what appears to be a permanent love source, and with Carbon seemingly happier than ever, the two have managed to form a powerful romantic bond. However, when an enemy returns who they had previously thought to be long gone, one of them must come to terms with the horrible realities behind securing their relationship.

Warning: Spoilers in the comments.

The sequel to Roses are Red is finally here! Please make sure you read that story before starting this one. (Optional, of course, but it would be quite silly if you didn't)
