Addiction.
A word that makes people cringe. Makes them shudder and wonder..."Addicted to what?"
Not all addictions are the same. Each one has its own story. Each person having their own words.
We've all been there. We've all held onto that one thing that gets us through to the next day. Or even just the next moment.
It doesn't have to be a drug, alcohol, or food, or a bad habit you can't shake. Sometimes, it's a feeling...a feeling only a certain person can give you.
A feeling that takes all of the darkness away.
For Esme Cavanaugh, it was Killian Grey.

Tangled Love
"You only live once." This is the overly used excuse that we use every time we make a decision and that's fine because it's true. This also goes with 'Love'. For once in our lives, we would eventually experience this love - the kind of love that just can't die. A love, though not being returned, we are still willing to take the risk. We expect that somehow, someday we will be rewarded. But how long can we give that love a chance? Are we really capable of giving so much without asking anything in return? Are we really capable of being happy, just seeing the person we love happy with someone else? How can we untangle something so twisted like LOVE? How can we survive without breaking? How can we live without hating? Brace yourself for it will be a long roller coaster ride to what we call 'HAPPINESS' - D A L E (myLovelymind) Cover by: @ShebaHanna 🎉Complete
Love Misunderstood
I only ever met one man I'd call truly noble. He was a man who was misunderstood and worthy of the world, yet everyone saw him differently. That was until I saw his true colours. The more I caught his eye the more he noticed me. We would pass each other, I would always stare a little longer at his back, wondering his story. People used to move out of the hallways if they saw him approaching whereas people would come and talk to me. He kept to himself, I was never alone, he had no friends, I was friends with everyone, I never saw him talk to anyone I spoke to many. we were polar opposites. At least that's what I thought until that day in the library, that is where I will start this story. Everyone is different, I hate the word "different", I much prefer the word unique. Unique is the only way to describe him. This is not just a story about love, it is about helping two souls who act differently but are the same on the inside, it shows the messy parts that aren't shown in movies, the tragedy, and the comedy but most of all the sizzling romance between two broken people who became one. Who is this story about? Caden James. But this is not just his story, It is ours.Complete
My Brother's Arch-Enemy (Completed)

I have lived with that silence for as long as I can remember - and I know it won't leave me until my very last breath.

Gasp of Air
When Dani agrees to drive a drunken Shane Olsen home, she assumes it's just a simple favor-one night, one ride, nothing more. But that single act pulls her into a world she never expected. As she learns more about Shane, she begins to uncover the pain and secrets he keeps buried beneath his carefully crafted exterior. In the process, she starts to see the cracks in her own life, realizing how much she has been merely surviving rather than truly living. Shane has spent years enduring neglect and abuse, learning the hard way that the people who appear perfect often hide the darkest truths. With Dani, he finds someone who sees beyond his mistakes, someone who challenges him to believe he's capable of more. But their relationship is anything but easy-tangled in struggles, unspoken fears, and the weight of the past, they fight to avoid becoming the very people who hurt them. As they grow closer, both Dani and Shane must decide if they can break free from the cycles of pain and regret that defined their parents' lives-or if they are doomed to repeat them.Complete

Or will you end up being a monster, hungry for lustful hearts to fill the once occupied space in that dumb thing you call a heart?

You're It for me
I loved a boy. A boy with the prettiest smile and the messiest hair. A boy who made my heart race. A boy who never looked at me. Until one day... he did. And just like that, everything changed. It started with an art class. A random draw. His name in my hands. What was supposed to be a silly group project turned into late-night chats, endless laughter, and the kind of closeness I never thought I'd have with him. But life isn't always soft. It gets loud. Complicated. And somewhere along the way, we broke. Maybe we were too young. Maybe we weren't ready. Maybe... we were just never meant to last. This is the story of how I fell for him. How I lost him. And how maybe-just maybe-some people find their way back.Complete
