    Silence and Honey I talked enough for both of us. He listened like he might never let go. Runerth Castellion was the boy with the sharpest eyes and the quietest heart. He didn't talk much-didn't smile much either. But he always showed up. For me. I had known him since we were twelve. Since I decided I was going to be his friend, whether he wanted one or not. I was the chatterbox play school teacher who sings songs about dinosaurs and glue sticks. He was the grumpy heir to a mafia empire no one talks about out loud and a CEO of a heritage company. We were never meant to fit but we did and we did not at the same time. All that until the fate tested us. Tested me. In a world where healing feels impossible, our bond became a refuge, a promise that no matter how dark the night, dawn was waiting. This is a story about the strength found in vulnerability, the power of a patient heart, and the beautiful, messy journey toward a love that saves.

    She was born into the most powerful family in the world. Protected. Adored. Untouchable. Until they gave her away-to him. Marcus Blackwell. The second most powerful man alive. Feared in boardrooms. Worshipped in silence. Known for his icy control and complete lack of emotion. To him, marriage was just strategy. She was just a name on a contract. He never looked at her. Never spoke unless it was to hurt. She waited. Cooked his meals. Sat in silence every night. She smiled through the bruises on her wrist. She stayed-even when he made her feel invisible. And when her family found out? He expected war. But she defended him. Lied for him. Protected him. And that's when everything changed. Because the man who ruled empires... Felt his world crack at the sound of her silence. And for the first time-he was afraid. Afraid of losing the only person who had ever loved him. This is not a love story. This is the story of a cold-hearted man... And the girl who melted him-slowly, painfully, completely. It's not soft. It's not safe. But it's unforgettable. Read at your own risk. You may fall in love with the villain-and beg for his redemption. **Daily updates**

    Aaluu aluu- So this is a story about a guy who was just trying to survive freelance gigs, caffeine withdrawals, and crippling self-doubt-until he accidentally got dragged into a fake date that turned into a real storm. It's about a girl who says too little and means too much. It's about walking into rich people's homes with a bouquet you can't afford, messing up art competitions, being called "bhabhi" way too early, and falling in love with someone who refuses to call it that. It's not the clean kind of romance. It's messy, inconvenient, confusing. But it's real. And as for me? I'm just a broke, caffeine-driven smoker throwing a part of my brain onto your screen. Hope it makes you laugh. Hope it makes you feel. Hope it stays with you a little longer than it should. No one cares about that tbh anyways enjoy.

    What if I told you there's a way to make even the coldest man melt? That no matter how emotionally unavailable, ice-cold, or allergic to commitment he seems, there's always that one woman who can break through - with the right mix of wit, charm, chaos, and... a little bit of lipstick? Meet Priscilla "Aila" Briones. Marketing genius by day, hopeless romantic by midnight scroll. She's got a heart that believes in love even if her inbox is full of red flags disguised as "good morning" texts. She's fun, she's flirty, and she's finally done crying over guys who can't spell commitment. So when a friendly dare at the office turns into a full-blown bet, Aila does what any self-respecting queen with a killer wardrobe and revenge to serve would do - accept it like it's a game she was born to win. The mission? Make the coldest, most emotionally constipated man in the entire office fall in love with her... in just 10 days. Enter Ryan "Ian" Santillan - Tall, sharp, intimidatingly hot, and completely immune to flirting. He's the kind of man who doesn't fall - not for flings, not for fun, not for anyone. Stoic, strategic, and devastatingly private, Ryan is the office enigma no one dares mess with. Except Aila. Armed with charm, confidence, and a checklist that includes: ✔ Flirty coffee "accidents" ✔ Unexpected smiles in the elevator ✔ Slow burns over late-night projects ✔ Just the right amount of mystery ✔ And a tiny bit of chaos to keep things fun Aila dives into the ten-day challenge with full force. But the more she plays the game, the more the game plays her. Because Ryan isn't just cold - he's cautious. And behind those guarded eyes lies a man who's been burned too deeply to trust easily. But here's the plot twist: He does start falling. And so does she. Suddenly, the lines between strategy and sincerity, dare and desire, play and passion begin to blur. Can you fake love without falling for real? Can you outgame someone who isn't playing?

    Cecilia doesn't do romance. She does lipstick, control, and emotional self-sabotage. But when a first date turns into a weekend away with a stranger named Eli, she finds herself slipping - not into love, but into something far more dangerous: vulnerability. Patterns Are a Bitch is a literary novel about emotional detachment, female rage, and the quiet violence of trying to feel again. Perfect for fans of Sally Rooney, Ottessa Moshfegh, and hot people with cold hearts.

    Some Reasons to Never Fall follows the tragic, magnetic journey of Rafe Caldor-the golden boy of a powerful family empire, raised to lead but never taught how to feel. Rafe's life unfolds through three defining heartbreaks. The first, pure and full of promise, ends in unimaginable loss. The second, wild and consuming, drags him into a toxic love that nearly ruins his name. And the third? The most complicated of all-wrapped in family, silence, and a girl he was never supposed to love. As the pressure of legacy collides with the mess of emotion, Rafe is forced to confront the parts of himself he's buried beneath charm, power, and carefully controlled chaos. Told with raw intensity, aching nostalgia, and the slow unraveling of a man who once had it all, Some Reasons to Never Fall is a story of love, loss, and the cost of building walls so high no one can climb them-including yourself, even when life gives you all the reasons to not fall in love again.

    She arrived on a Friday. Unsorted. Unexplained. Unwelcome. The Sorting Hat refused her. The castle whispers her name. And not even she knows why she's here. Vespera Faelora Roswyn wasn't supposed to be part of Hogwarts. Yet she is. A girl in black, with platinum hair like frostbite and eyes too ancient for seventeen. She doesn't belong to any House. She doesn't go home for holidays. The castle moves for her-doors creak open when no one speaks, portraits follow her with wide, blinking eyes. Hogwarts remembers something about her that she's long since forgotten. She doesn't care for attention. Especially not from boys like Mattheo Riddle - cruel-eyed, sharp-tongued, and entirely unreadable. But Mattheo notices her, long before she notices him. Because no one else smells like that. No one else disappears like that. And no one else makes the air go quiet like she does. Two wrong names. Two broken legacies. Bound by magic that shouldn't have survived, and choices neither of them are ready to make.
