I should have wore my seatbelt that day.
I knew I should have.
You know that small voice in the back of your head nagging you to do something? That annoyingly but always right voice that puts pits of guilt in your mind if you don't do what it says? It told me to put my seatbelt on but of course, like always I didn't listen to it... But, I should have. As I watch the tear stained cheeks of everyone that I care about and even some I don't, bury my now lifeless body, I regret it more then ever...
Except him. He knows. He can see me. And he is determined more then ever to save me. He wants me to find peace. He even demands it, he wants to make me face my inner demons.
After all, he is the very reason I was in the car in the first place.
Francesca Atles always thought that the world owed her something. She was desperately searching for something to mean something to her, for her life to matter. After her mothers horrific departure from life, Frannie was convinced that she had completely lost everything; until she really does lose everything.
Fighting to stay apart of this life and the next, she must overcome the compelling hold the other side has on her and the consequential destructive bond she has with the boy still alive.

The Price of Silence
Jennilen and Kevin once had the kind of love that felt unbreakable-passionate, devoted, and filled with dreams of a future together. She was a brilliant doctor, he was a relentless prosecutor, and their life was meant to be perfect. But love is fragile, and one terrible mistake shattered everything. Their unborn child, the heart of their dreams, was taken from them. And in the aftermath of that tragedy, the truth that surfaces between them is far more devastating than the loss itself. Blame turns to rage. Love turns to silence. And every day, they become strangers trapped in a marriage that cannot be saved. As long-buried secrets unravel, Jennilen and Kevin are left with only one question- When love has already been destroyed, is there anything left to fight for? A raw, emotional journey through love, grief, and the pain of unspoken words, *The Price of Silence* is a heart-wrenching tale of a marriage built on passion but doomed by betrayal. And sometimes, the worst goodbyes are the ones that never get said.Complete
Cold Water
[BWWM] I was only twelve years old when the world turned cold. The day my mom died in that car accident, I felt like someone had dumped a bucket of ice water over my heart. My dad, who had always been my hero, suddenly became a stranger, filled with rage and blame. He couldn't see that I was hurting, too; he only saw me as a reminder of his loss. The accusations cut deep. He said it was my fault for being there, for not doing something to save her. For being the reason she was in the car in the first place. In the years that followed, things only got worse. The abuse started gradually-a harsh word here, a shove there-but it escalated, leaving scars that I carried long after the physical pain faded. I was drowning in my own despair, struggling to keep my head above water while my father's anger raged like a storm around me. I only had a break from his anger when I started living with Aunt Dina-my mom's older sister. Well, that was because she found me nearly dead on my bed after I took a dozen pills. I was tired of living. I had hit rock bottom. The harsh whispers that followed me around and the stares at school. I pretended not to notice, like it didn't bother me. But it did. I was alone. Then came Athalia, a ray of sunshine cutting through my darkness. With her, I felt something I hadn't felt in years-happiness. She became my light through the darkness and my lifeline. ••••••••••• ● Warnings ⚠️ ~ Mention of suicide ~ Anxiety attacks ~ Rape attempt ~ Mention of self-harm ~ DepressionComplete

4am Knows All My Secrets
Dear Reader, "Nothing in this life lasts forever. Everything is temporary. Leaves that used to make us smile in the spring will soon fall down and we will forget that once, maybe long or maybe not a long time ago, we used to be happy. But this story isn't about what makes us sad. Because the winter will pass and we will see those spring leaves come alive again. And we will smile again. Just like we did many many times before. But then again, what is it about? Guess we'll have to figure it out together. Or I'll let you know once I'm back." She spent her life questioning her worth and her place in this world. Never knowing what to expect or what to hope for. Lost and confused, she wandered down the streets. They all looked the same. The streets, the buildings, parks, rivers, stations. They all looked the same. She was losing hope. She was losing everything. And then she woke up. Nowhere. To anyone, anywhere, any time. Written mostly in a form of diary, it's the story anyone can relate to. It sets no boundaries for age, race, religion or anything in between. The person in the story has no name or appearance. It's up to everyone's individual imagination. It can be you, your best friend, your neighbour or someone you've never met before. It's all up to the reader. This book shows that every single one of us is different. But we all have something in common. You're never alone. Or are you? Sincerely,Complete
-Unhealthy Obsession-
Warning! This story contains sensitive topics. ** I looked into his dark eyes and saw, what I once naïvely thought, was innocence. ** "Please!" she cried, curling into herself and holding her arms to her chest. "I want to go home! I haven't done anything to you! Let me go please!" Anger washed over me. What was she not understanding? "Mia!" I snapped, holding her neck tighter, staring down into her watery brown eyes. "You can't leave, I won't let you! I can't lose you! And you have done something. You've stolen my heart." I felt a grin play on my lips as I leaned more onto her. "and for that, baby, you've done everything." [COMPLETE]✅ (This book will be rewritten at some point!)Complete
Submerged
They say hope is the last thing to lose. If you lose hope, you lose everything. Anyone who loses their faith, their reason, also loses their soul. This is the story of how Nadine clung to her only hope: to find her family safe and sound. A strange anomaly of the human mind swept the world, and she was alone, with very few clues about the whereabouts of her family. She had to be brave and confront those who had already lost everything. What she didn't know was that chaos had already spread worldwide. Entire cities destroyed, families lost, and the faith of the few who still stood slowly fading away. Replaying the images of her loved ones over and over in her mind, she will have to face those who have lost their hopes, turning into violent beings with a thirst to destroy everything around them, including themselves.

My Purgatory Hell
Maribell had a promising life ahead of her, and a family that loved her. She didn't realize how much she took for granted until she lost her life. Now in order to rest in peace, Maribell needs to learn how to cope with the emotional chains holding her back. Through the help of a new friend, will she be able to find the peace she needs? ***** A/N: This story was inspired by a true event that occurred near where I live. A woman (who had kids and a husband) had lost her life. This initially started a spiral of thoughts leading to the creation of this story. There are a lot of mirroring qualities between my life and Maribell's, but unlike the lovely woman who had passed (I personally don't know her, but may she rest in peace), I don't have kids or a significant other, so I had to put my own spin on things. I also added in texting and driving, because the combination is unsafe. May you find this story to be as eye opening as I did when I wrote it! Comments and votes are welcomed and encouraged. Enjoy reading!Complete
