Rafayel x All Love Interest (The Forgotten Heart) by DorisSial
37 parts Complete Mature
Rafayel once held the world in his hands-and lost it all. He was the Lemuria Sea God, born of cosmic earth, his heart forged from pure celestial energy. A being of immense power, unmatched and untamed. So powerful, in fact, that even he couldn't control it. And one day, his power destroyed everything. The Earth fell into ruin. The people he loved perished. Their deaths were his burden to bear. To undo the catastrophe, Rafayel rewound time. Again and again, he chose a different path-desperately trying to save the ones dearest to him. In each timeline, he met them: Sylus, Zayne, Caleb, and Xavier-his soulbound loves. To each, he gave a piece of his divine heart, sealing away his strength to protect the world and keep them alive. But each time, it cost him his own life. And yet, Rafayel never hesitated. He would rather die a thousand times than watch his power destroy them. Now, the cycle has shifted. A new timeline has bloomed-one where the Earth still stands, untouched by divine havoc. Rafayel lives, still a god, but... changed. This time, he has no memories of the past timelines. No memories of the love he shared. No memory of the sacrifices he made. But Sylus, Zayne, Caleb, and Xavier remember. Reincarnated into this new world, they live among humans-watching from the shadows, protecting Rafayel in secret. In this life, it's their turn to shield him. Because this time, he didn't give them his heart. This time, he lives. But fate is never silent. And love never dies. So when Rafayel's path begins to cross with theirs once more, what will awaken within him? Will the memories return? Will love find its way again? Or will the god who once saved the world now be the one who needs saving?

Olivia and Evan met on the first day of college-and hated each other instantly. She thought he was arrogant; he thought she was uptight. But fate had other plans. Through awkward encounters, accidental proximity, and undeniable tension, their animosity turned to something more complicated: attraction. Over time, Olivia found herself falling for Evan-just as he started flaunting a new relationship. Heartbroken, she pulled away. But Evan noticed. Curious, then concerned, he began digging beneath Olivia's carefully built walls. When the truth finally surfaced, they faced it head-on-sparking the start of something raw and real between them. What followed was a slow-burning love story: from a painful breakup with Evan's girlfriend to quiet, intimate moments that bonded them deeply. As they navigated their final year of college, insecurities crept in-but so did laughter, shared dreams, and growing love. Graduation pulled them apart, and long-distance tested everything they had built. But visits, job changes, and one grand decision brought them back into the same city-and back into each other's lives for good. From moving in together to starting careers, their love deepened in the rhythm of everyday life. But love wasn't always smooth. Career crossroads and personal challenges-including fertility struggles-shook their foundation. Still, they chose each other, over and over again. Through engagement, steamy nights, wedding vows, and a honeymoon in Italy, Olivia and Evan learned that love isn't about perfect timing-it's about presence. Their marriage blossomed through laughter, vulnerability, and quiet resilience. Even when the future brought uncertainty-like the possibility of not having children From enemies to soulmates, All the Ways We Stay is a deeply emotional, often tender story about two people who choose love-over heartbreak, over distance, over time. A story that proves forever doesn't arrive all at once. It's built, one ordinary moment at a time.

"You're lying, Selene, and we both know it." He whispers seductively in my ear, sending chills down my spine. Yes, I'm lying. Of course I'm lying!
