Found-family Stories

Harper Quinn was never supposed to be the story. She was supposed to be a scholarship girl who kept her head down, took what she'd earned, and stayed safely on the right side of the rope. But Armitage doesn't let anyone stay invisible, not once your name becomes a headline, and not once Holden Vale decides you matter. Holden was raised to believe love is a weakness and loyalty is a contract. Now his brother's life is hanging by a thread, his father is tightening the leash, and the one girl who makes his world feel human has become his most dangerous mistake. Because in New York's elite circles, "liability" doesn't mean risk. It means target. As scandals sharpen into strategy and secrets start slipping into daylight, Harper and Holden are forced to navigate a city that treats people like assets and affection like leverage. The friends they trust are under pressure, the families behind them are playing chess, and every choice comes with a price tag. In this world, you don't get to love quietly. You either hide it... or you fight for it. Liabilities is a high-stakes, slow-burn continuation full of twisted power games, ruthless parents, found family loyalty, and the kind of love that doesn't just break rules, it dares to rewrite them. (Book 2)

To her sister Bianca, known as "The Viper," Sienna is a rival to be dismantled with blood-red silk and calculated cruelty.

But Sienna, 29 and possessed of a quiet, lethal foresight, realizes the trap is deep enough to bury her alive. After a final, desperate night of love with Leo, a man from the world she must leave behind, Sienna stages a haunting "suicide" at the fog-drenched docks. She leaves behind a car, a scarf, and her camera, effectively murdering her identity to save her life.

Izuku Midoriya believes soulmate marks are meant to be understood. Fourteen tally marks-one for every year he's known Katsuki Bakugou-line his arm, proof of a bond that should be complete. Yet the marks have stopped changing, leaving him with the quiet certainty that something is missing. Katsuki Bakugou notices the danger long before anyone names it. The way the new transfer student keeps his sleeves down, the way he flinches, the way fear follows him too closely. Katsuki doesn't care what the secret is-only that no one gets hurt under his watch. Kirishima Eijiro was raised to believe soulmate marks are dangerous. That they trap people, destroy love, and must be hidden at all costs. When Izuku watches too closely and Katsuki stands too near, Kirishima doesn't see safety-he sees the beginning of something he was taught to run from. As their paths intertwine, old lies begin to crack, revealing a truth none of them were prepared for: some soulmate bonds aren't unfinished by accident, and some destinies only make sense once all three are willing to face them together.

When scholarship student Harper Quinn steps into Armitage Academy, a school for New York's elite, she plans to keep her head down, ace her classes, and ignore the cameras at the gates. Then she collides with Holden Vale: heir with a blade for a smile, a temper the tabloids love, and friends who move like a dynasty in motion. They should orbit different worlds. Instead, gravity happens. Parties that glitter, rules that bite, a boy who swears he doesn't feel and a girl who keeps proving he does. In the shadow of penthouses and family empires, Harper finds a tight-knit circle she was never meant to enter and a pull she can't outrun. But in this city, surnames are currency and secrets are sport. To survive the game or change it Harper and Holden will have to decide what their names are worth...and what they're willing to risk for something real. Welcome to a world of glass penthouses, iron-clad surnames, and gold-leaf lies, where five best friends protect each other like a religion. When scandals detonate, these heirs will have to choose. Dynasty or desire. They were raised to play the game. They're about to rewrite the rules. A swoony, slow-burn romance about found family, forbidden lines, and the moment love stops being leverage and starts being home.

When a single crack in Liv's façade collides with the fractures Declan can't outrun, they see each other, too clearly, too fast. Dragged together by pull and pushed apart by pride, they flirt, fight, and burn through a campus that keeps score. But want is easy. Trust is work. And neither of them knows what it means to let someone stay when the lights are off and the past gets loud. Family loyalty, private scars, and a love that refuses to be tidy, this is a story about choosing to be seen and learning that "broken" isn't the end of you. It's where the light starts. For fans of angsty romance with real stakes, protective siblings, and healing arcs that earn their happy ending - golden girl × class clown, grumpy/guarded × charming, hurt/comfort, slow burn found family, brothers who will burn the world for you

Emelia Duvessa has a resume that would make anyone scream. Literally. As a professional "Extra" in the Character Development Unit (C.D.U.), Emelia's existence is defined by two things: 1. Waiting in beige hallways. 2. Dying tragically so the Hero has a reason to cry in Chapter 3. She's a vampire with no bloodlust, an Extra with too many opinions, and she is tired of being a plot device. Desperate for a narrative that lasts longer than a Tuesday, Emelia talks her way into Unit 7: a chaotic black-ops team tasked with fixing "fractured Narratives," stories that have broken, stalled, or gone off the rails. Her first mission? Fix a Plot Hole. Now, she's stuck searching for a white void with a brooding Warlock boss who hates her, a violent pink-haired gnome, a vain Hero, and a misunderstood bear shifter. In a world where Authors are practically gods and Extras are disposable, Emelia is about to learn the most dangerous truth of all: Sometimes, the most important part of the story happens in the margins. Updates every Friday!

Men are liars. They deceive. They manipulate. They make you believe in fairytales, then disappear and leave your story with a terrible twist. Raffaela knows this too well. She's lived it, survived it, and promised herself NEVER AGAIN. Being a single mom means long hours, aching limbs, and too many nights spent trying to stretch hope into something practical. But she's doing it, barely, and that's more than enough. For her own heart and the little girl's who looks at her for everything. Then came Jordan. Progressively flirty, loud-mouthed, reckless- probably one of those street brats with too much confidence and nothing solid to offer. Or... is he? One doesn't believe in coincidences, the other only believes in responsibility and realism. He has the kind of heart that refuses to let go, no matter how many times she pushes him away. ~"It's our Paradise, and it's our War Zone"~ ☀️SLOW BURN☀️ ***** ***** Dual POV: 🌸 Her POV: 🪽 His POV: 🫧 Flashback: 🌼 DISCLAIMER: All the characters are entirely made up and any similarity to real people is NOT intentional. Names of cities, towns, and public spaces are fictional, unless mentioned generically (e.g. Britain).

He was never supposed to be more than a distraction. Dylan Knight has a reputation for saving everyone but himself. Thea Ashton was raised to keep her heart locked and her family's empire fed. When a chance collision pulls the golden-hearted fixer and the ice-cold heir into each other's orbit, sparks turn into wildfire. Fast. He's sunlight with teeth. She's a storm in stilettos. Between boardroom games, late-night confessions, and a family that loves too loudly to ignore, lines blur and loyalties snap. Want becomes need. Secrets demand a price. In a city of polished lies and private wars, two people learn that sometimes love isn't soft. It's a choice you make with your whole chest. • Enemies-to-lovers energy → forbidden/complicated past • Found family that steals the show (chaotic, warm, ride-or-die) • Grumpy/cold heroine × golden-retriever-with-bite hero

In a world where scent is sacrosanct, Sparrow is an impossibility: a werewolf who smells of nothing. Stolen as a pup and surgically stripped of his scent gland, Sparrow learned early that a wolf without smell is a traitor-or a target. Now he survives as a ghost between packs, trading secrets to those who'll pay and infiltrating human camps to steal the truth they hide. He trusts no one, answers to no Alpha, and never stays long enough to be caught. Until Kael. The formidable Alpha Warden of Ironwood Pack has spent months hunting the elusive "Null" who keeps slipping through his borders. Kael needs Sparrow's intel to stop a human militia that's kidnapping wolf pups and grafting their glands into soldiers. But every time he corners the scentless spy, Sparrow shifts and vanishes-leaving only scars and questions. When Kael finally captures him, he discovers the impossible: his prey is a wolf. A broken one. And the missing piece of Kael's own forgotten past. Forced into an uneasy alliance, their bond defies every law of the Omegaverse. Kael's instincts scream that Sparrow is his, but his nose smells only betrayal. Sparrow craves the pack he can never join, but the Alpha who once saved him might just destroy him again. As synthetic wolves close in and old secrets surface, they'll have to decide: is a bond forged in silence stronger than one written in scent? THE SCENTLESS is a gritty Omegaverse romance where identity is not given-it is fought for, tooth, and claw. Note: This is a story i made on my own idea but using chatgpt to help write the story.

After the Tragedy of Ihle Desamare Mangue, and the forced separation and supposed death of the Red Sash Pirates, Falcon D. Leroy, the Captain, finds himself alive, and on a strange island of women who all came together after collective trauma they'd faced in their lives. He is then forced to show his worth and if he wins. He will be guranteed to leave.

This story is based in an apocalyptic world. It starts off as an ordinary day that goes straight to hell. There is this large corporation called Save Labs that focuses on researching and creating cures for viruses, and other sorts of bio research... except this corporation has a dark side. They create and test artificially created organisms, some harmless, others not so much. The main creation that Save Labs had been working on managed to escape somehow, causing the whole world to fall to disaster. Is it a fungus? A parasite? No one knows.. all anyone really knows is that if you touch it, you're dead, and the monsters created by it are almost unkillable. Some slight context into the monsters because I fear my storytelling won't do them justice. They are only able to be killed in two ways. You must either hit them in their roots, or burn them alive. Roots are basically every infected's weak point. On a person who got infected, their roots would reside in the spot they became infected from. For example if you got touched by an infected on your left forearm and became a monster than someone would have to destroy your forearm to kill you. Once infected you become a mutated monster that looks similar to something like Venom. The infection is a hive mind however due to its high intelligence it separated itself into divisions that are often fighting for dominance of an area, so not all infected are friendly to each other. That is about it! I want to apologize for any mistakes, I am a first time writer and I am still learning! One more thing! ⚠️I AM A MINOR⚠️ please keep any comments respectful!

Sue, a lowly comp-sci student with no knowledge of Pokémon, must persevere within their world after waking up as a Gardevoir. With the locals and their language completely alien to her, even the refuge she receives feels uncertain. Local deities invading her dreams and using her as a pawn don't help, either. As Sue uncovers this world's scarred history, her god-mending task becomes increasingly clear, as does its difficulty. Despite that, and her limited grasp of her own powers, she keeps trying, for her goal remains the same. To survive and make it home, no matter what. ------------------------------------------ Xenofiction Mystery / Slice of Life, told from the perspective of someone with no Pokémon knowledge at all. Major themes include self discovery, xenophobia, overcoming guilt, and forging one's own fate against the powers that be.
