I have a story to tell you. One about love-- the kind that swears forever under starlight... And the kind that leaves you waiting at 2:00 a.m. in a dress he'll never come home to see. Once, he kissed me like I was the only thing that made sense. Now he won't even look at me. The vows were real. The silence is louder. The bed is cold. I keep telling myself it's just another rough patch. But the candles burn out. The food goes cold. And his green eyes aren't soft anymore- just angry. One day, he stops coming home. One day, the doctor says words I can't unhear. One day, a stranger with hazel eyes asks if I'm okay. And I wish they were green. For a while. But this isn't a story about waiting. It's a story about finally walking away. About the woman who stayed too long- and the one she chose to become after. Live it with me. Won't you? #2 Discovery (02/14/2026) #2 triangle (02/14/2026) #1 rollercoaster (02/19/2026)

(BOOK 1 Of the QUEENS OF CHAOS SERIES) Isa Valen doesn't believe in restraint. Two weeks ago, she did champagne, a sinfully accented stranger, and a night so consuming she ran before sunrise. She doesn't remember his face. She doesn't remember his name. But her body remembers the way he made it burn. When her sister runs to New York, Isa follows without hesitation. New city. New job. New distractions. Then she meets her boss. Erik Orlov. Billionaire. Bratva Don. A devastatingly gorgeous tattooed man built from control and violence wrapped in tailored suits. The first time he looks at her, something tightens in her chest. The first time he steps close, her pulse betrays her. She doesn't recognize him. He recognizes the curve of her mouth. The sound she made when he touched her. The way she ran. The night she can't remember is the one he hasn't stopped replaying. Now she works beneath him - in his office, in his space, in his world. Every glance lasts too long. Every accidental touch feels deliberate. Every breath between them feels charged. And Erik Orlov does not chase. He claims. Enemies circle his empire. Loyalty fractures. Power shifts. But none of it unsettles him like the woman sitting across his desk, pretending she doesn't feel it too. Until two pink lines appear. Because the only thing more dangerous than their chemistry... Is the secret growing between them. And this time, he won't let her run.

She loved him loudly. He loved her quietly-only when it was convenient. Leah believed two years of love meant security, a future, a place she could finally call hers. Yet, every time it mattered, he chose someone else. A best friend. A familiar comfort. A silence that hurts more than betrayal. This is a story about emotional neglect, unspoken loyalties, and the slow realization that love without priority is a form of loss. It asks a difficult question: How long can you stay where you are never fully chosen?

🅿🆁🅾🅻🅾🅶🆄🅴 Sometimes love doesn't die. It just goes quiet buried under anger, pride, and the things left unsaid. He thought he'd won the argument the day said words no man should ever say. She didn't deserve his child. The silence that followed was heavier than hate. Years later, that silence still follows him. In every empty room, every smile that doesn't reach his eyes. And her,she learned to stand again. To breathe without his shadow, to rebuild the pieces he broke when he mistook love for ownership. But fate, cruel as ever, doesn't close doors neatly. Their paths cross again, tangled in the same city, the same memories, but different hearts. When the past still breathes beside him, wearing a familiar face. Not when truth has its own hunger, waiting to tear through the lies they both lived with. Now, he has to face the truth he ran from,redemption isn't about getting her back. It's about becoming the man she once believed he could be. And she must decide if forgiveness means loving him again... or finally letting go. 29/01~ Top 4 in India; 30/01~ Top 3 in india 31/01~ Top 4 in india 01st #divorce, 02nd #wattpad 12th #love, 19th #heartbreak 04th #angst, 03rd #heartbreak 01st #imissyou, 09th #women, 02nd #randomstories.... 3rd #heartbreak, 1st #imissyou, 9th #women, 2nd #randomstories....

Ellie spent years rebuilding her life after public humiliation, loss, and betrayal at the hands of Renzo Bellavere - the golden boy who destroyed her family and never looked back. Now fate has bound them together. In a world where mates are sacred and refusal is taboo, Ellie must navigate a bond she never consented to, a society that demands compliance, and a man who believes destiny absolves everything he's done. This is not a story about instant forgiveness. It's about autonomy. About survival. And about what it takes to reclaim yourself when even fate is against you. FYI: this story explores mating bonds in an everyday world very similar to ours. They are not werewolves or vampires. Just humans with mating bonds!

After a decade-long marriage ends in betrayal, New York chef Jilly Moore is left with two sons, a rising restaurant, and a heart she refuses to let break twice. As she learns to co-parent with the man who hurt her, she finds herself rebuilding more than a business - she's rebuilding her family, her future, and the parts of herself she forgot. Across split weekends, baseball games, school plays, late-night recipes, and unexpected laughter, the Moore family discovers that love doesn't vanish... it changes shape. And sometimes, healing shows up in places you never expect. She built a life around love. He broke it. Now she's learning how to live for herself - and discovering that love might not be gone... just different. Author's note: I recently released a short horror novella - darker, quieter, and very different from this story.

Alessia had rules. She didn't do drama, didn't take nonsense from any man. Until him. For Cassian, she broke every one. A cliché, impossible mother in law? She handled it. Missed dinners because of work? She served herself double and waited anyway. Too tired to spend time together? She embraced the quiet hours alone. She forgot her limits, abandoned her rules. All for him. Until her. The one rule she couldn't break, the limit she couldn't cross. She saw him with her. Broken, she left and whispered a wish she never thought would come true: that she had never met him. The wish was granted. Alessia woke up and didn't remember him. But now Cassian is the one waiting. Running against time to be near her. Chasing every moment, following every rule, just so she might remember him again. And if she can't... Can he remember it all for both of them? © IcecreamSundae5.
