Lavania Ottelier is a scholarship student at Aberleen Academy, the kingdom's most prestigious magical institution. Surrounded by the heirs of Hollow's most powerful families, including the youngest Moldaveanu, she has only one goal: Graduate and leave their world behind. That plan ends the moment the monarchy issues an unprecedented decree. To secure Hollow's future, the notoriously marriage-averse Duke Evander Moldaveanu must choose his bride from Aberleen Academy's graduating class. Lavania never intended to compete. She certainly never expected to catch the attention of Hollow's most unattainable man. Or his younger brother. When palace politics tighten their grip and long-buried truths begin to surface, Lavania discovers that falling for the wrong brother may be the least dangerous mistake she can make. Some love stories begin with destiny. Theirs begins with a royal decree. ✧❁❁✧✿✿✧❁❁✧✧❁❁✧✿✿✧❁❁✧✧❁❁✧✿✿✧❁❁✧

When Letitia Sharpe is pursued by her odious guardian, coerced to give him her hand in marriage, she flees to the only friend she has: the dashing Lord Archie Pemberton... her favorite author. Except the man she flings herself onto isn't Lord Pemberton at all, but Robert Lilley, his beleaguered secretary. At first, pretending to be Lord Pemberton-- as Archibald commands-- is a bit of a lark. Robert finds he enjoys being able to take the credit for the books he wrote, and quickly realizes Letitia is far more brainy than Lord Pemberton and her guardian both assume. Together they turn the tables on stuffy Lord Archie. Still, he knows he can't let his true feelings for her show-- he's pretending to be Lord Pemberton, and Lord Pemberton is engaged. But when Letitia's wicked guardian comes to take her away and wed her against her will, and Lord Pemberton's elegant fiance descends on Martingale House, the truth will have to come out... one way or another!

An anthology of stories about the invisible strings that tie us down... and what happens when they break. When you're born, a thread ties you to home. Move away, and it thins. Go too far, and it snaps. Each story follows someone new. A boy who can't remember his mother's laugh. A girl who drives 14 hours to feel nothing in her childhood kitchen. A man who cut his own thread and never told his son why. Some threads stretch. Some fray. Some are gone before you notice. How far would you go before you couldn't find your way back?

Copyright © 2026 by Darkrai_X In Room 309, people learn how to survive each other's pain. Elise Valencia is dying, and everyone around her seems to speak softer because of it. Everyone except Matteo Reyes, the chaotic night shift cleaner who steals hospital sunflowers, breaks rules constantly, and refuses to treat her like she's already gone. What begins as irritation slowly becomes something deeper inside the oncology ward, where laughter feels rebellious, love becomes complicated, and strangers leave permanent marks on one another's lives.

✨ COMPLETED | Soft College Romance ✨ Short, gentle, and finished - perfect for one-sitting reading 💛 College wasn't supposed to feel like this. Soft glances during golden hour... [and so on] You never meant to be noticed. Then one golden evening on campus, a boy with a camera and a smile that felt like sunlight looked your way-and everything slowed down. A gentle, slow-burn college romance about being seen, about quiet hearts, and about how a single look can change everything

She Became the Home I Lost "You didn't lose me when you left." "You lost me when I stopped waiting." Aryan I thought leaving was the right thing to do. Trust is fragile, and when hers shattered in my hands, I convinced myself walking away would hurt less than staying. I was wrong. Months later, one website proposal becomes my excuse to see her again. The girl I loved is gone. In her place stands Akira-a woman with a new name, a successful career, and walls I no longer know how to climb. She remembers my coffee order. But she doesn't remember how to love me. Or maybe... She simply refuses to. Akira People think time heals everything. It doesn't. It teaches you how to survive what never healed. I buried the girl who waited for someone to come back. I built a life, a career, and a version of myself that no longer depended on anyone else. Then he returned. Not with flowers. Not with apologies. But with a project that forces us to work together. He wants another chance. I just want to finish the job. The problem is... Some feelings never disappear. They simply learn how to hide. A slow-burn, second-chance romance about love, regret, trust, and two people who must decide whether the home they lost can ever be rebuilt.

Just a few fragments of me during my teen years that you may call poems.

Trusting the pull on one's heartstrings
