Trauma Stories

"I'd jump after you into the pit of fire if I had to, Ophelia. Don't question that, and don't you ever ask me not to." ________________ Lilia thought she knew loneliness. She thought she understood grief. Haunted by a painful past, she kept running-from city to city, never looking back. All she wanted was a place where no one knew her. Then Dominic Brooks walked into her life. Chaotic, intense, and impossible to ignore, he and his makeshift family threatened to shatter every wall she'd built. But what unsettles her most isn't Dominic's presence-it's the way he looks at her, like he already knows her. The way he calls her Ophelia, as if it means something. And the way, despite everything, he feels like home. _______________ "Ophelia." "Ophelia, please." Isn't it funny? How this nickname works so perfectly. The world pushed Ophelia to the edge of her sanity, throwing her into the inevitability of a tragic ending. Here I am, facing the same fate. But no writer will engrave my name in history. No painting will be named after me. I'm just another insignificant part of the big book of life. Just another iteration of Ophelia.

She was crying and I held her face. Her eye lashes were wet with all the tears. "Jellybean? Listen to me," My voice gentle, holding both her hands. "Every part of me loves every piece of you." I said as I kissed her forehead. "Never forget that, okay?" She nodded, crying silently, her hands shaking and I hugged her tight. ════════════ ୨୧ ═══════════ At 33, Joshua Price keeps life simple: work, sleep, repeat. No surprises. No chaos.

Her husband left her on the road. A truck finished the job. She woke up with nothing - no name, no memory, no baby she never knew she was carrying. And the man sitting at her bedside? A complete stranger. But sometimes strangers see you clearer than the people who were supposed to love you.

He's the NHL star with a cold reputation--she's the spark that could melt it all. All Lilah wants to do is keep her head down, finish her online college course, chase her dreams of becoming a baker, and survive. But when a photo caught at the wrong time with the NHL's newest star, Cole Becker, goes viral, she's suddenly thrust into the limelight--exactly where she doesn't want to be. And when the person she tried so hard to escape from resurfaces because of her new popularity, Lilah has no choice to run to the safety of fame and Cole Becker as his fake-girlfriend. Because no one can lay a finger on the newest sweetheart of hockey, can they? But Cole makes her feel things she's never felt before and she wants nothing but to be loved by the boy that makes her feel beautiful and safe. Cole Becker needs an out, and fast. A stupid rumor built on absolutely nothing is threatening to destroy the reputation he's barely built. He's only a few games into his rookie NHL season and already he's been nicknamed the NHL's "Ice King;" scary, domineering, and arrogant. So when Lilah crashes her way into his world, he has no choice but to fake-date her, to both help his reputation, and to help the girl who's already got him wrapped around her finger.

Everyone remembers the Lynch fire. Everyone remembers the bodies carried out. But no one remembers the boy left standing in the middle of it all. Tadhg Lynch isn't the golden Lynch boy. He isn't the baby who got shielded from the worst, or the oldest who carved a new life with a family of his own. He's the one in between. The one who saw everything, took the blows meant for his younger brothers, and carried scars no one wanted to look too closely at. Brave. Bold. Mouthy. A joker when he can manage it. And broken enough that nothing ever really sticks. Bethany Gibson is the girl who shouldn't have lived. She was three when the water took her under, when her father gave his life to save hers. She grew up in the shadow of grief, wrapped in the protection of a brother who bled for her in ways she only half understands. Sweet, funny, too kind for her own good-Bethany knows what it is to survive, but not yet what it means to live. When Bethany collides with Tadhg at Tommen, it's fire meeting oxygen-sharp words, sharp looks, a pull neither of them can shake. He's crude, cruel with his jokes, too much for anyone to handle. She's soft where he's jagged, sunshine where he's ash. He calls her Barbie. She calls him an arsehole. And somewhere between the laughs and the fights, they start to see the cracks in each other. But fixing what's shattered isn't simple. Not when trauma festers. Not when grief never loosens its grip. Not when love means putting your hands into the fire all over again. Funny. Raw. Heartbreaking. Fixing 9 is a story about the girl who wouldn't stop caring, the boy who didn't know how to be cared for, and the brutal, beautiful mess of trying to save each other when the world already tried to burn or drown you alive.

• Book 1 out of 4 of "The Way To Save You" series. Hiraya te Salem Ka'art'ite, the last of the nomadic Terapatxi, has chosen the shadows. A survivor of the RDA's cruelest experiments, the fifteen-year-old Hiraya knows a bitter truth: in a world at war, her mutated blood is not a gift - it is a prize to be exploited by humans and Na'vi alike. ​Her carefully guarded solitude is shattered when a stranger stumbles into her sanctuary. He doesn't come with shackles or syringes; he comes with a gentle smile and a name that carries the weight of a legend. ​"I am Neteyam te Suli Tsyeyk'itan. Son of Toruk Makto. It's nice to meet you, Hiraya." ○●○●○●○ This Avatar - Neteyam AU fanfic: • is canon-compliant (save for the author's own interpretation of incomplete souls and Spirit World rules). • is written in switching 3rd person POVs for better storytelling. • adheres to sci-fi laws and logical emotional development. • is literally made to counter Neteyam's canonical death in ATWOW. • is made by an author who loves pictures (so please do read online for the full experience ♡). ○●○●○●○ Sample passage from this book: ​"Listen to me," Neteyam said, his focus narrowing entirely on her, his brows furrowed with genuine concern. He shifted, his hand moving to cover hers where it rested, white-knuckled and trembling against her thigh. Her skin felt fever-hot against his palm, a sharp contrast to the cooling spray of the sea. ​"Focus on this," he told her, keeping his voice low and steady to cut through the sound of the surf. He needed her to stop staring at the horizon with those dead eyes. "Feel the weight of my hand. The salt on your skin. You are here, Hiraya. Right now. You're with me, and we're above the surface. Stay in the light."

Jasper Jean mariano is the mutya of section E. JayJay was never soft, never weak, and never anyone's to claim. This is her story-the strength they never saw, the silence they couldn't break, and the reason everyone who came near her fell... in their own way. Bringing back the og book 1 Diva jay! Rewriting amnse but in my pov. Lots of love to author lara. not copying. just rewriting. This is my work, my ideas but the original characters and plot belong to author lara only. I feel like there's a lot of mystery which is unsolved in book 3. So here I'm just continuing it. Though this book is from retreat scene, there were some things I wanted to add. I feel a lot of things should have been explained or atleast acknowledged. So here I AM. Y'all would never regret reading this book i swear.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. That was what they whispered about me. My mother was a dancer who seduced an Emperor to survive. I was the ignored princess who seduced a Prince to steal a throne. I thought I was the heroine of a romance novel. I thought if I smiled enough, schemed enough, and loved him enough, I would get my happily ever after. I was wrong. My sister was the beloved Cinderella. The Crown Prince was her Prince Charming. And I? I was just the wicked stepsister who got in the way. My reward for stealing the male lead was a hellish marriage, a cold bed, and a lonely death. Now, I have returned to the beginning. I'm done chasing fairytales. I'm done trying to be someone I'm not. This time, I won't go to the ball. I won't wear the glass slipper. I will just fade into the background and disappear. Or so I thought. "Careful, Your Highness." On the balcony where I tried to hide from the world, a hand caught me. It wasn't a Prince. It was a Knight I had never noticed before. I wanted to retire from this fairytale, but it seems the story isn't done with me yet

Four brothers. One empire. A love story written in power, passion, and destiny. They lost everything in fire. Now, they will rise from the ashes. The Rajvansh brothers-heirs to an empire, rulers of their worlds-had their lives shattered in one brutal night. Their family was burned. Their legacy stolen. Their past erased.

The Rajvansh brothers will not stop until their enemies kneel. Until love entered their lives. They were kings, but these women? They were the queens who could bring them to their knees.

Kim Jungkook was never meant to be feared. He was meant to be the youngest-the one his six older brothers would spoil endlessly, the one who would grow up surrounded by warmth so constant that he would never have to doubt it. He was meant to be safe. Soft. Human. But at four years old, Kim Jungkook was taken.Taken-and given to a man who did not see a child, but something incomplete. Something that could be broken down, reshaped, and controlled until nothing remained except obedience. Jungkook's childhood did not disappear in a single moment. It was stripped away piece by piece, until there was nothing left to hold onto. Every instinct that made him human-every urge to cry, to resist, to reach for comfort-was treated as something that needed to be erased. By the time he turned twenty-one, his name no longer belonged to a family. It belonged to fear. In the underworld, Kim Jungkook was not spoken of as a person. He was something else-something quieter, colder, more precise. People did not say his name loudly. They whispered it, as if the sound itself might bring him closer. They called him The Shadow. Not because he hid in the dark-but because he had become something empty enough to belong to it. Somewhere far from the world that feared him, six brothers never stopped searching. And when the past finally stands in front of them-when the brother they have spent years searching for looks at them with empty eyes and no trace of recognition-the truth will not come gently. when his brothers finally reach for him, when they call his name the way they used to, when they try to bring back the boy they lost- the most terrifying question will not be what he has done. It will be whether there is anything left inside him that remembers how to come back. To fully grasp the cold, bone-chilling reality of Kim Jungkook-the boy who became The Shadow-start with his own words. Read his monologue Warning: content is not for the weak hearted

You sniffled after taking another beating by some werewolves. Even though you hid your ears and tail, I guess they could still sense that you were weak and in need of help. You were cold...Tired...and VERY hungry. Some people might describe you as half dead. You were ready and prepared to take your last breath before a woman gasped. "What are you doing out here?" You looked up at her with E/C eyes. "Don't you have a home." You didn't answer. "Hm...Well, If you don't...I'll just take you with me for the time being..." She smiled. She picked you up and held you close to her body. She hummed a sweet tune as you slowly fell asleep. |ALL STORYLINE IN THIS BOOK BELONG TO JASON AND JESSICA BAVURA ALONG WITH THE PEOPLE WHO WORK AT CATFACE!
