"Intrinsic dignity... if I ever had that, I lost that a long time ago."
Breaking follows the life of a young teenager by the name of Leo Young. If losing his mother at a small age wasn't enough, his father has put it on himself to avenge his wife by mentally, emotionally, and physically destroying his son.
For many years now, Leo has come to accept this as his fate, a constant cycle of pain and torture. That is when Leo, upon going to a new school to realize his father's dream of becoming the musical star his mother once was, meets a group of five boys. These boys appear to be almost shining beacons as they live their lives in friendship and delight in the path that their dreams have set before them. Will they light a fire of hope within the dark-eyed boy's despairing heart to love himself, or will the weight of his reality come crashing down upon him in the end?

She isn't fine like she pretends to be. On the contrary. Liliana Storm Whitlock is shattered into a thousand pieces, used from the ones she loves, betrayed by the ones she loves, broken by the ones she loves. So she lost herself. And it all seems to go downhill after a crucial accident on a winter night. Additionally, her life takes a turn when she decides to leave her hometown, Hemfield, to start her new life at her University and finally enjoy the life she deserves. A fresh start is what she needed. Maybe she isn't the only one. The hockey team at the new university takes quite a keen interest in Liliana and won't seem to leave her at rest. Especially the most arrogant one of them all; Rhys Heartlow. He is nothing else than a jerk when they first meet, but somehow his cold heart seems to warm up to her just enough to make her fall for him. However, even if Liliana seems to find solace in her new life, her past continuously haunts her by tugging her back into old habits no matter how hard she tries to fight and ignore it. And perhaps she shouldn't have closed her eyes on the hints she got, because that would lead her into an icy road that is nothing less but deadly for her heart.

To a point where he cant be put back together, to a point where he couldn't care less about anything.

The black sheep of not just his family, but of a whole town. All these before he was even 12 years old. What about when he gets older? 🔱🔱🔱 With every light, there is a darkness, waiting for its moment to come. With every right, there is a wrong. With every joy, there is a sorrow. Nothing can truly be itself, without having an opposite side to it. One cannot exist without the other. With sadness always watching from the corner, growing and growing, bigger and stronger, for its moment to arrive; to surface. No one is ever truly free from it. ©Complete
