The Patchworks of being alive: a book of short stories
This is not one story, but many. A patchwork of voices and moments stitched together - some soft as a whisper, some sharp enough to leave a mark. Inside these pages, you'll find sadness that lingers like smoke, flashes of surreal wonder that bend reality at its edges, and quiet truths that feel almost too honest to say aloud. There are stories that wander into the strange, poems that breathe between the lines, and a handful of pieces that may stir old shadows. It is a collection for anyone who has ever felt both the weight and the wonder of being alive - the laughter that comes out sideways, the grief that hums in your bones, the beauty that arrives without warning. Weird, light, aching, honest - all of it belongs here.

MINE ONLY
HEAVEN belongs to him. Heaven Rachel lived for simple things-his bakery, his mother, and the quiet life he built for himself. With snow-white hair, ocean-blue eyes, and lips as soft as rose petals, he looked like a fragile angel untouched by the world. But angels don't go unnoticed. Not when Lorento Moretti is watching. The coldest, most feared Mafia boss alive. Seven feet tall, sharp jawline, eyes as dark as the forest at midnight. A man who destroys everything he touches... yet becomes obsessed with the one thing he swears he'll never let go. Love, obsession, power, and secrets. Can an angel survive being owned by the devil? Heaven belongs to him now. His only. And when possession turns to obsession-love becomes dangerous, and escape becomes impossible.

Androphobia
an·dro·pho·bia | \ ˌan-drə-ˈfō-bē-ə noun : an abnormal dread of men : repugnance to the male sex Thea is the definition of sweetness. Whether it be stopping to talk to a homeless person in the streets or volunteering overtime at her local charity shop, she feels the need to give and not take. Although that comes with disadvantages of its own, the effects of a strange phobia of hers only make her life more difficult: her growing fear of men. And when she meets the most terrifying of them all, she is forced to ultimately confront her fear. In the form of a murderous member of the mafia by the name of Synn, that same uncontrollable terror that she experiences in the presence of a man only sparks an interest in him. But unbeknownst to Synn, a man who revels at the tremor of his enemies, he cannot figure out why her wide, teary eyes do not give him the same pleasure. Why does that same terror-stricken look on Thea's face only make his heart clench with pain instead of content? #1 in Hot #1 in Fear #1 in Scared #1 in Sweet #1 in Kind #3 in Cute #5 in Love Cover done by @kimtherespeopledying
