The Quiet Between Heartbeats
Noah Night is seventeen, silent, and surviving. Haunted by a past she refuses to speak of, she moves through life like a ghost-unseen, unheard, and untouched. Her only safe place is her mum's arms, and even that sometimes feels too fragile to hold her broken pieces. Then Lacie Winter crashes into her world-fierce, red-haired, and reckless with kindness. She's the first person to look Noah in the eyes and see more than a scarred shell. But letting someone in means risking everything... and Noah isn't sure she can take that leap. As their worlds tangle, Noah must decide if she's ready to face the past she's buried and open herself to the one thing she's always feared-hope. But healing isn't easy. Love isn't a fix. And sometimes, survival feels like the hardest thing in the world. Will Noah find her voice in a world that taught her to stay silent, or will her past finally drown her for good? --- ⚠️ Trigger Warnings: This story contains sensitive content including: • Childhood trauma & abuse • Panic attacks & PTSD • Mentions of sexual assault (non graphic) • Anxiety & depression • Emotional manipulation • Recovery/healing themes Reader discretion is advised.

Quiet Minds
Noah lived an ordinary life behind a desk. He was just another face in the crowd, hiding an ability he never asked for and couldn't control. He kept his head down, avoided people, and never let anyone close enough to notice that he could read their thoughts. That is, until one rough day led him into the one place that would change his life forever: A bar. But it wasn't the bar that had him coming back. It was the bartender. Evan was calm, steady, and impossible to read. Literally. For reasons that Noah couldn't explain, Evan's mind was silent to him. It was both comforting and terrifying to Noah. Over drinks and late-night conversations, a quiet friendship formed. One that became the only steady thing in Noah's carefully hidden world. When an attempted kidnapping forces Noah to run, it's Evan who gets him out. He takes Noah to the Varients: a resistance group with a hidden base in the middle of nowhere where people get strong to protect those they care about. For Noah, it's a new reality. One where everyone is training to defend their home, and where abilities are a common attribute. But what started as survival quickly turns into something more. As secrets surface and tensions build, Noah finds himself drawn to Evan in ways he doesn't know how to handle. With a bond built from a quiet mind and trust, why couldn't love be a factor?
Threads Of Fate
She was never meant to be his wife. She was meant to be his revenge. When Anastasia is forced into a marriage she never chose, she becomes bound to Killian-a man feared for his silence as much as his violence. To her family, the union is protection. To him, it is justice long delayed. Every vow is calculated. Every act of devotion hides a blade. Killian has waited years to dismantle the family that destroyed his own, and through Anastasia, he finally holds the thread that can unravel them all. But fate has a cruel sense of irony. The woman meant to be collateral begins to matter. And the deeper the bond between them grows, the more impossible his revenge becomes. Because some threads, once pulled too tight, cannot be cut without blood.

Well... what her brother doesn't know can't hurt him, right? *** "Matt's sister, I presume?" He walks towards the couch and my eyes widen. He's tall.

Not the best friend who became her first kiss... her first love... her everything. But when he moved across the world, he left her with nothing but a broken promise and a gold star necklace she still wears like a scar. She swore she'd wait. He swore they'd find each other again. But two weeks after he came back, he was holding another girl's hand. Now it's war. And Lisa's done playing soft. Noah thought leaving Lisa behind would protect them both. He didn't expect to fall apart without her. Neither did he expect to learn the truth-something so brutal it made him question every moment they'd ever shared and see her as a stranger in the skin of the girl he once loved. And he definitely didn't expect to fall into someone else's arms trying to forget the taste of her lips. But Lisa's not the shy girl he left behind. She's colder now. Hotter, too. And every time he looks at her like he hates her, he wants to grab her and make her remember everything. This isn't just a breakup. It's unfinished business. First love never dies.

Gold Fever (M×M) ✔
"We caused the end of the world. Turns out it's easier than you might think it is. All you need is a group of eco anarchists and an ounce of magic, and the world goes down in a poof." After another manic episode, Phoenix gets written off his parents' will, and he's trying to find a reason to keep living. Causing the end of the world and being the only one who can save the world wasn't exactly what he had in mind. Phoenix wasn't meant to have magical abilities, and he most definitely shouldn't have been able to make all the money in the world disappear just by thinking about it. To make matters worse, it came with a minor side effect: a disease called Gold fever. In other words, people started to turn into gold. Over the course of a single day, Phoenix becomes the most hated person in the world. As the economy collapses around them, only three of his friends are willing to stay by his side. Their job is to keep Phoenix alive while he tries to make money reappear and find a cure to Gold fever. Which turns out to be more challenging than they thought, as they find out someone is tailing Phoenix with the intention to kill.Complete
