Unrequited-love Stories

I heard his laugh before I saw her, and I already knew - that loose, unguarded version of it, the one I'd never once heard him aim at me. I found him with my eyes and there he was, all six feet six of him tilted toward Cathie like she was the only thing in the room worth standing near, his sharp eyes tracking her face with an attention I had spent three years quietly starving for. Something in my chest didn't break. It just went still. I set his coffee down on the bench - oat milk, no sugar, memorized without him ever asking - and walked away.

On Olivia's 24th birthday, the Hilton family announced her marriage to General Clayton Bradford, four years her senior, the most sought-after bachelor in town, and the man she had secretly loved from afar. She thought he could learn to love her too. But four years later, he still couldn't forget Caroline. Just as Olivia discovered she was pregnant, Caroline returned, shattering any chance she had of Clayton truly loving her. Faced with the painful reality that she could never compete with his first love, Olivia asked for a divorce and left her husband.

She liked him. Quietly....deeply...in the kind of way that never asked to be seen. But he never saw her. Not as a crush. Not as a friend. Not even as someone worth understanding. He wasn't cruel. He wasn't confused. He just... never chose her. And still, she stayed. At first, it was small-just a fleeting feeling. But with time, it grew into something consuming... something that lived in every glance she stole, every message she waited for, every silence he left behind. She fell first. And then she fell harder. Until loving him became a habit she didn't know how to stop. Until one day- she did. Not all at once. Not in a dramatic goodbye. But slowly... piece by piece... she took her heart back. Or at least, that's what it looked like. Because now- she doesn't react. She doesn't wait. She doesn't care. Or maybe... she just pretends she doesn't. To him, she was just someone annoying. Someone easy to ignore. Someone who never mattered. But fate has a way of returning what was once overlooked. Because when they meet again- when her eyes no longer search for him- He notices. He pauses. He wonders. He feels. And this time... he falls. Harder than she ever did. Not slowly. Not carefully. But in the kind of way that ruins sleep and steals breath. While she- just watches, as if she feels nothing at all. 🏆 Ranked #1 in Crush 🏆 Ranked #1 in OneSidedLove 🏆 Ranked #1 in Reunion ~ a story that started with silence... and stayed. ❤️

Violet "Vee" Shelby is a freelance reporter trying to make it big, but it seems that Chicago is not yet ready for her frank boldness and early talent. Vee constantly sees the same scene replaying before her eyes: "We'll let you know," "Have you tried the gossip columns?", "A spot has just opened up in our fashion section." What would happen if Violet signed her investigations with a male name? What harm would it do to try? After all, her twin brother Sebastian is too busy chasing his dream in the kitchens of Paris to notice. This is the story of a somewhat unlucky reporter who will prove to the world that she is worthy of her aspirations, even if it means clashing with one of the biggest CEOs in the United States, Duke Orson. Enjoy, get mad, and be moved while reading this chick-lit with a flavor of Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night."

A book that resonates with its title itself, Almost. Almost of everything. It was almost, and perhaps that is what made it beautiful. In a way only a heart that has loved could ever understand. Happy reading! © All Rights Reserved

The cover doesn't belong to me. It is entitled 'Sarada X Boruto' and was produced by Wattpad and posted on Pinterest. In the aftermath of the 5th Great Ninja War, two prominent Shinobi of Konohagakure, Boruto Uzumaki and Sarada Uchiha are finally getting their fairytale ending! But not everyone is so eager to be part of the celebration... Spoilers: Angst, unrequited love and major character deaths mentioned to follow. The story is not strictly canon to source material and I may get some Japanese terms wrong. 'Boruto: Naruto Next Generations' manga belongs to Ukyo Kodachi, Mikio Ikemoto and Masashi Kishimoto and is a sequel and spinoff of Kishimoto's 'Naruto' and 'Naruto Shippuden' as seen in Weekly Shonen Jump Magazine. I own nothing except the story and a few original characters.

Tessa Vale has one rule that keeps her sane: Jude doesn't count. He's her best friend since they were six. Her emergency contact, her hoodie supplier, the one man who wants nothing from her. In a life full of people who desire her body and disappear when she needs steadiness, Jude is the safe room. The place she never has to be wanted. What Tessa doesn't know is that Jude has loved her the whole time. That every overshare about another man is a knife he asks for and calls listening. That being trusted more deeply than any of her lovers is its own slow bleed. He'll be anything to her. Except gone. A best-friends-to-lovers slow burn told from both sides - one of them aching in plain sight, the other looking everywhere but at him.
