She wants love. She just can't let it stay. Ava has never been able to explain it. A man shows interest, things start to feel real, and something in her quietly shuts down. No drama. No argument. She just - disappears. Back into her Sunday strolls, her tidy flat, her carefully arranged life that looks perfectly fine from the outside. And it is fine. She is fine. Until a stranger outside a closed bookshop on an ordinary London morning looks at her smile and says it looks tired. His name is Delphine. He isn't pushy. He isn't perfect. He is just annoyingly, dangerously good at noticing things she has spent years making sure nobody noticed. For the first time in a long time, Ava doesn't walk away immediately. But staying has never been her strength. Because underneath everything - underneath the wit and the deflection - and the I prefer being alone - lives something Ava has never told a single soul. A choice she made at fifteen. A person she loved and left behind. A disappearance that changed everything without her ever fully understanding how. She thought she buried it deep enough. She was wrong. The Weight of Fifteen is a slow burn story about a woman who understands love better than anyone - and trusts it least of all. About what happens when your past refuses to stay where you put it. And about the terrifying, necessary work of finally letting someone see you. Genre: Romance / Thriller / Drama Updates: Weekly Warning: This story deals with themes of emotional unavailability, guilt, and past trauma.

Farrah Winters has spent twelve years building a life around a wound she refuses to name. She is excellent at her job, loyal to her one true friend, and completely untouchable in every way that matters. Then Knox Harmon comes back to Charlotte-the boy she loved at sixteen, the one she never told, the one whose girlfriend destroyed her in forty-two seconds on a gymnasium microphone. Now Knox is everywhere: at the charity gala, in the partnership meetings, standing across from her at a dinner party with Harlow's hand on his arm. The problem is that proximity does what proximity does when two people have been carrying the same unfinished thing from different sides. What starts between them does not ask whether the timing is right. What follows contains betrayal, a secret that was never supposed to surface, a poison slipped into a drink at a public event, a knife in a parking structure, and a woman who is very strategic and very good at it until she is not. Nothing here is resolved easily. But something is resolved, eventually, and it costs nearly everything to get there. Slow burn. Real heat. Real damage. Come prepared. ©️ _RelleLebby_// R. L.

I stood there, her green eyes tracing me. Even without looking I could feel it. The quiet questions she held. Why did I do it? Honestly, I do not know. I just did. Guilt was all I felt. But I didn't move. I stood there and watched her leave - taking questions with her that even I could not answer. I watched him with nothing but curiosity. Not anger. Not hate. Just curiosity. As to what I could have possibly done to deserve it. He didn't look at me. Not even a glance. And somehow, I understood what I didn't know. Tied by war, fate, betrayal and guilt. Tied by responsibilities, roles and duties. Will they fight for what their hearts know is right? Or will they succumb to the cruelty of a world that was never on their side? ILLBOUND.
