'It is only through the degradation of the soul that you can know who you really are; when all else is stripped away, leaving you bare.' 
'
Livia Wazen: black sheep of the Wazen family, caught up in her own drama, 'call you out on your bullshit' type, unconcerned with her reputation, secretly a softie. 
Julian Reed: joker of the crew, undeniably friendly, defined by his family's scandals in an elite society, shamelessly genuine, weighed down with constant guilt. 
They might not share a lot, but they have one thing in common: they once lost everything. 
'
This is a story about two scarred souls on a journey of redemption, who happen to meet along the rocky road.All Rights Reserved

Promises we made (BWWM) by FigHollis

One campus. Two brothers. A girl they swore to never want. Danielle Hayes didn't come to college alone. She came with the two people she's closest to in the whole world: her best friends. Tristan hides a razor-sharp temper behind unshakeable loyalty. Alec wears his heart so openly it almost feels like a trap. Everything was perfect... until one drunken night changed the shape of their world. A slip in judgment. A life-altering mistake. Whispers. Lies. Manipulation disguised as friendship. This isn't just about love. Someone isn't playing fair. Love was never supposed to ruin them. Loyalty was never supposed to hurt this much. Choosing one might mean losing it all. Sometimes the promises you break are the ones that break you.

The Bad Boy Saved Me by Pentatonix21

Do you ever wonder what life would be like if it were a movie? Or some sappy romance novel that you wish your life could be like but it's not? Sometimes you may even get to caught up in the fictional world that you don't realise it IS fictional. Then when you do realise life isn't what you convinced yourself it would be, there is only one possible outcome. Depression. Which may lead to anxiety, self-harm, low self esteem, and worst of all, losing the people you love. Life works in weird ways. Not just for you but for others too. Take Cassidy Rivers for example. Her life is far from perfect. No parents, over protective big brother, few friends, and Asher Norman, the bad boy who won't stop picking on her. Could life get any worse for Cassidy?

The Promise We Broke by Alissia_18

Imagine being bound to someone your whole life from birth. And that person isn't even a sibling or relative. Yep, that's how my life is. Me and my best friend have always been together.

Starting their sophomore year at P.R.E.S college, one of the UK's most elite schools, Beck slips effortlessly into the role of golden boy. Blonde haired, blue-eyes, captain of the football team, heir to a billionaire father, and with millions of followers online, he's the guy everyone wants. But behind the perfect mask, Beck hides scars from a past that still haunts him. Valeria on the other hand: grounded, sharp, and beautiful in a way that feels untouchable - all red curls and storybook eyes. Together, they've always been inseparable. But promises are fragile. When Sidney Alvera, a bold new transfer from America, arrives at P.R.E.S, everything begins to shift. Secrets unravel. Loyalties blur. And when Beck finally finds the courage to confess how he feels, nothing will ever be the same again.

The Unseen Witness by RosethornsandInk

"You think I don't care about you?" he murmurs. "You think I don't feel anything?" "I-Noel-" His voice is low enough to weaken me. "I feel everything when it comes to you. That's the fucking problem." My breath catches in my throat. He leans in-not to kiss me. Just close enough for his forehead to brush mine, his voice a whisper meant only for me. "So believe whatever you want about me... but don't ever mistake this-" his eyes flicker to my lips "-for a fuck toy". They say the truth is hidden in plain sight. But in this story, every answer leads to a deeper question, and every trusted voice carries a quiet lie. lily swears there telling her everything-yet there's something is missing, just out of reach Read Closely. Not all facts are fiction, and not all fiction stays on the page.
