Pasthurts Stories

Description: Alyah has always been careful with her heart. After being burned one too many times, she's convinced herself that love is a risk she's not willing to take. She has her walls up, her rules in place, and a past she refuses to repeat. Then she meets Ezra. Charming, patient, and far too good at seeing through her defenses, Ezra isn't afraid of the space she keeps between them. He doesn't push-just waits, steady and sure, as if he knows she'll come closer when she's ready. But letting someone in means giving them the power to hurt you. And Alyah isn't sure if she's ready to risk it all for something that might not last. As feelings deepen and the line between caution and surrender begins to blur, Alyah must decide-will she keep running, or will she finally let herself fall?
