They broke her trust. They broke his mind. But when the past claws its way back, survival isn't enough - vengeance demands blood. Victoria learned how to stay quiet. Grief became her shadow, guilt her constant companion. It whispered in her ear that she should have been the one to die instead. Not her mother. Never her mother. If she had, maybe her father wouldn't have walked away, leaving them to fend for themselves. But silence is a fragile shield-and when the past resurfaces, dragging her into a world she barely escaped, she realizes staying quiet won't save her this time. Xavier learned how to disappear behind scars, behind rage, behind the monster his past made him. Forged by cruelty, built by betrayal, and fueled by rage, he became the kind of man other monsters feared. Scars became his armor. Violence, his language. He doesn't believe in mercy-only vengeance. Especially for the man who made him this way. Victoria was everything he had been taught to avoid - soft yet unbreakable, damaged yet defiant. She had the kind of pain that mirrored his own, a past carved into her bones, a war waged behind tired eyes. She saw through him in ways no one else had ever dared, and he hated it. Hated her. Because she made him feel. He was chaos wrapped in quiet fury, a storm threatening to consume everything in its path. And yet, when she looked at him, she didn't just see the monster - she saw the man who had once fought to hold on to his soul. But love between two broken people is never easy. It's volatile. Cruel. A constant push and pull, neither of them willing to surrender, both too damaged to truly hold on. The closer they get, the more dangerous the stakes become. Yet, for all the ways they fought against it, they kept coming back to each other.

She came to the sea to disappear. He was the reason she couldn't. Two broken souls collide on the wild Danish coast-drawn together by secrets, silence, and a pull neither of them can name. In a town that remembers everything, love is just another way to drown. ******************************************************* "I don't need saving," I spit, though my pulse betrays me. "Not by you. Not by him." He doesn't smile. He doesn't swear. He takes the last half step like a verdict. "Good," he growls-brutal and soft at once. "I wouldn't know how." ******************************************************* Alexis had everything-music filling stadiums, a love that promised forever, a dream so bright it felt untouchable. But dreams fracture. Promises bend. And sometimes the life you've built begins to slip through your fingers like water. Escaping London's stages and spotlights, Alexis retreats to her grandparents' summerhouse on the wild Danish coast. Here, she can vanish. Here, she can pretend she isn't a rising star unraveling at the seams. But Rørvig has a way of exposing what people hide. The Erikson brothers-magnetic, notorious, and tied to her past in ways she barely remembers-pull her into their orbit. Especially Tobias: sharp-tongued, infuriating, impossible to ignore. With him, her disguises falter; her lies unravel. As the tides of this coastal town close around her, Alexis must confront what she's been running from: that healing isn't the same as hiding, and that sometimes the hardest person to face is yourself. The Summerhouse is a story of longing and reinvention, of the fragile line between pretending and becoming-and of a girl learning whether she can surrender to the sea's pull without losing herself to the depths. ************** Content note: This novel explores themes of grief and loss, abuse, strong language, intimate relationships, addiction, and anxiety. ************** https://youtube.com/shorts/Wi_a2uQzGzs?si=1En1B4uykIUwgur8

Life is like a rollercoaster, it has its ups and downs, but it's your choice whether to scream or enjoy the ride... When life's rollercoaster throws you off track, do you scream, or do you hold on tight? For Ira and Rudraksh, the journey is far from smooth: one suffocating under the weight of failure, the other nursing a heart shattered into pieces. Two strangers caught in life's ugliest turns, where every step forward is a fight against invisible battles. This is not a story of being saved by each other, but of learning to live despite the wreckage, of finding the courage to stand when the ground never stops shaking. But if their paths converge-bringing their emotions and differences-will they find solace in each other, or will those very differences pull them apart? ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️ GENRES: General Fiction · Literary Fiction · Contemporary · New Adult ⚠️ Disclaimer: This story is a work of imagination, entirely original and fictional.

--- 💫 Akriti: The Figure of Love Dinner tables were supposed to be peaceful. But in Akriti's house, peace was a myth and coincidence was a curse word. One moment they were silently eating, the next everyone was arguing about "coincidences," classmates, and who-knows-who - while Abhishek was busy digging his own grave one sentence at a time. Somewhere between the eye rolls, flying taunts, and near-murder attempts with a dining chair, chaos became their love language. And then there was him - Shiv. Calm, composed, annoyingly perfect Shiv. Her senior, her mystery, the one who somehow stayed unbothered while the world around her turned into a sitcom. Maybe it wasn't about falling in love at all. Maybe it was about finding it - in the noise, in the laughter, in the chaos. Because Akriti wasn't just learning about love - She was becoming its figure. ---

Chhaya-Varchas Radiance of Shadows Thousands of years ago, during the fierce war between the Devas and the Asuras, a divine weapon known as Chhaya-Varchas was lost to Earth - and with time, forgotten by all. Until now. In the age of Kaliyug, whispers of its existence reach the ears of a powerful Asura. Bound by cosmic law, he cannot descend to Earth himself - but his dark will is carried out by the Pishachas, shadowy spirits of the night. The weapon can only be awakened through a ritual soaked in human blood - a sacrificial offering that will shatter the last barrier between darkness and domination. But what the Asura doesn't know is that Chhaya-Varchas chooses its own warrior. And it never chooses lightly.
