    𝘚𝘩𝘦'𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘪𝘳𝘭 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘸-𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘰 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘢𝘸. Calla has always known she wasn't wanted. Not by her parents. Not by her seven siblings. Not even by the servants who barely acknowledge her. She's used to being ignored, used to being unloved-and used to quietly loving someone who doesn't love her back: her brother's best friend, Kieran Holt. But when he snaps at her in a moment of carelessness, something inside her breaks. Calla begins to fade-stops reaching out, stops speaking, stops trying. And when her body finally gives out from an illness no one even knew she had, her family is forced to face the truth: the sister they all overlooked was slowly disappearing right in front of them. Kieran is the first to realize just how badly he hurt her. And he's determined to earn her trust, her forgiveness... and her heart. Because now that he sees her for who she really is-soft, strong, worthy-he'll never look away again. A heart-shattering, slow-burn brother's best friend romance about trauma, healing, and being loved out loud for the very first time.

    Charlie Potter (fem!Harry) is alone. Her godfather is dead, her friends have turned away. Raven-yes, ex-Titans Raven-dangerous, powerful, and not quite human-offers her friendship, support, knowledge, a way to survive. Maybe even... more? Charlie discovers family, and they help her recover her heritage and ultimately her freedom in this fourth year (Triwizard) Harry Potter AU. It'll end up at around 40 chapters. This story contains severe Dumbledore bashing. Fans of McGonagall or Ron won't be happy either. Frankly, most characters incl. Hermione do not come out looking great. Some bridges are (somewhat) mended at the end. Fans of Flitwick, the Tonks' or the Delacours can rest easy ;)

    Two hearts. One unexpected love. And a past that refuses to stay buried. Paris is soft, guarded, and tired of pretending she's okay. Kamari is bold, loyal, and carries her scars like armor. They were never supposed to meet-until Kamari showed up at Paris's house to chill with her best friend kha... and locked eyes with the girl who would change everything. Now they're tangled in something deeper than either of them expected: healing, love, and the kind of safety that feels too good to be true. But when Kamari's dangerous ex resurfaces and nearly tears their world apart, Paris is left recovering-physically and emotionally-with Kamari refusing to leave her side. In a world where Black girls are told to be strong before they're allowed to be soft, Strangers is a love story about choosing peace, choosing each other, and holding on even when everything tries to pull you apart.

    Dhvani Bansal's life was never hers to live. Burdened by a past she hides beneath quiet smiles and lowered eyes, she knows silence too well-silence that suffocates, silence that remembers. When her marriage is arranged to Divyansh Mittal - the heir of a powerful business empire-she expects nothing more than duty and distance. But Divyansh is not what she imagined. Behind his calm exterior lies a man who sees more than she wants to reveal, who notices the cracks she desperately tries to conceal. He is gentle where she feared control, patient where she expected anger. Yet, he too is human-capable of mistakes that might wound her fragile trust. As their worlds intertwine, so do their wounds. In the chaos of family, traditions, and unspoken truths, two strangers must decide if love is enough to heal scars the world never sees. Because some scars aren't loud. Some are silent. And sometimes, the quietest ones ache the most. ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── Every scar has a story. And every story deserves to be heard. This is Dhvani Bansal and Divyansh Mittal's journey-a tale of silence, strength, and love that learns to grow through brokenness. Will you join them in this journey? 🌙✨ ~By SLESHA #4 on rromance (13/09/25) #1 on rromance (07/11/25) #2 on arrangedmarriage (08/11/25)

    Some cycles don't break quietly. Some hit the ground at full speed. Downward Spiral is the third entry in the Carousel of Destruction series - a raw, unfiltered look at addiction, relapse, the lies we tell ourselves, and the moments when everything feels one step from collapse. This isn't a story about heroes. It's a story about survivors. About the wreckage we wake up in, the voices that drag us back, and the relentless pull of a past that never seems done with us. If you've ever felt the spin, the numbness, the "one more won't hurt," the crash that always follows- you'll feel this one in your bones. Welcome back to the ride. Hold on tight. The ground is coming fast.

    In a world shaped by precision, power, and perfectly guarded distances, a single, unplanned shift disrupts the quiet equilibrium of two lives. No promises. No intentions. Just a tension neither can define- and a pull neither can control. Refined, intimate, and edged with quiet danger, NEXUS is the story of the space where two uncompromising worlds meet- and the fault line that forms when the silence between them becomes impossible to ignore.

    What if the person you fear the most... is the only one who knows your past? Samaira Malhotra's life shatters the night she hears a whisper in the dark- a whisper she was never supposed to remember. The city believes the Whisperer is dead. A myth. A nightmare buried years ago. But when a photo from her childhood mysteriously appears... when a locket she lost at age ten returns to her door... when a stranger mimics her mother's voice in the middle of the night... Samaira realizes the truth: her forgotten past is waking up. And standing between her and the monster from her memories... is Aarav Khan. Protective. Dangerous. Connected to her in ways she never knew. He knows her childhood better than she does. He knows what she survived. He knows why the Whisperer marked her. But the deeper Samaira falls into the maze of secrets- the closer she gets to Aarav- the darker the truth becomes. Because some memories don't stay buried. Some promises don't die. And some fears... learn your name. A love that ignites. A past that haunts. A killer who whispers. Are you brave enough to follow Samaira beneath the surface?

    In a world where legacy is everything and love is a transaction, two wounded souls are forced into a marriage of convenience, only to discover that their greatest battle lies not in the boardroom, but against the ghosts of their past. Monique Arnaud is the ice queen of the corporate world. Publicly known as Monique Prince to honor her cold, estranged parents, she is a fortress of control, haunted by the childhood tragedy that killed her brother and left her with a guilt her mother has never let her forget. She wears gloves to avoid the memory of her brother's cold hand and trusts no one but her grandfather and her devoted driver. Adrian Parker is the rebellious, "spoiled" party animal, forced to bury his dream of being a professional race car driver to satisfy the demands of his domineering father, a retired general turned pharmaceutical titan. Seen as a disappointment, Adrian wears his playboy persona as a shield. SHADOWS OF DESTINY is a gripping story of redemption, resilience, and the healing power of unexpected love. It is a tale of two broken people who, in their fight to protect each other, finally find the courage to save themselves, learning that the strongest foundations are not built on blood or business, but on the unbreakable bonds of a family you choose. --- Copyright Notice: This work is an original creation, written and owned by kaynee2016.

    This isn't a love story. It's survival. It's the story of two people who meet when everything's already falling apart. Norah Bishop is the girl who came back different - polished, popular, and carrying a secret that won't stop bleeding. She's mastered the art of pretending: perfect grades, perfect boyfriend, perfect smile. Anything to outrun the truth. Daniel Cohen has been quiet his whole life. Not because he has nothing to say, but because no one ever listened. Not when it mattered. He's not looking to be saved - just to make it through without falling apart. They're not supposed to matter to each other. But they do. In glances across classrooms. In conversations at 2 a.m. In the tiny moments no one else sees. But some pasts don't stay buried. Some pain doesn't play fair. And love - no matter how much it aches to stay - can't always fix what was never safe to begin with. But love doesn't save you. It stays with you.

This one's for the quiet ones, the coffee drinkers, the night watchers. A short story about addiction, recovery, and the strange comfort of the fellowship that never truly ends. - from the collection Barbed Wire Psalms (Part 4 of 8) by Christopher Paul Putnam (CP²)

    A (mostly) cozy friends-to-lovers BL about healing, high school, and second chances. Two years ago, Jace Walker had it all - popularity, talent, and the kind of ego only an American teenage soccer star could have. Then he was kidnapped. Gone for two years. Experimented on. Forgotten by everyone but the nightmares. Now he's back. Back at school. Back to pretending he's fine. But Marcus, the school's new golden boy, sees right through him - and Jace can't decide if he hates him for it... or needs him. As Jace struggles to rediscover who he is, he finds something unexpected: friendship, love, and maybe even himself again. Will he ever stop being the boy who disappeared? Or is he becoming someone new entirely? Ranking Milestones: #40 in Boys #1 in Superslowburn #1 in Bisexualawakening

    Tori Anderson's life shattered the night she found her fiancé in bed with her best friend. Broken and betrayed, the 26-year-old interior designer makes a radical choice: accept a full scholarship to a prestigious design program in Kyoto, Japan-and leave everything behind. But healing isn't as simple as running away. As the only Black woman in her cohort, Tori navigates hypervisibility, culture shock, and the weight of past trauma while learning the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi-finding beauty in imperfection. With the help of unexpected friends and the ancient art of kintsugi (golden repair), she begins to rebuild herself piece by fragile piece. Then she meets Ren-brilliant, beautiful, and utterly unavailable. A commitment-phobic architectural designer with his own hidden wounds, Ren has perfected the art of intimacy without connection. But when their late-night workshops and vulnerable conversations crack both their carefully constructed walls, neither can ignore what's growing between them. Can two broken people learn to trust again? Can gold fill the cracks between them? A story about survival, self-discovery, and the courage it takes to love after loss-Kintsugi is an achingly beautiful journey of a woman learning that healing isn't about becoming unbroken. It's about honoring the scars that made you whole. ©️ Relle H
