Firefly by tripledots

Book 1 of The Fly Series . . . Ten years ago, Elena Summer's life crashed on a rain-slick road. Her mother didn't make it out, nor did her memories. Now, she's coming back to Cadford, the town her family fled overnight, the one that feels too familiar for a place she can't remember. Everyone here seems to know her story. Everyone but her. Then there's Justin Castor, Cadford's most notorious enigma. Beautiful. Brilliant. Brutal. He doesn't believe in redemption, and she doesn't believe in coincidences. Yet somehow, their paths keep colliding like fate has unfinished business. As fragments of Elena's past start resurfacing, she begins to realize the truth isn't lost, it's just been buried. And Justin might be the only one who knows why. In Cadford, every story bleeds into a secret. Every mystery untangles the past. But the past is never meant to be revisited. A dark, slow-burning story about love, loss, rage, and the monsters that grief can create. Welcome to the world of Firefly! 𓆤 Trigger Warnings: PTSD | Trauma | Abusive Language | Violence This story contains Mature Sex Scenes

Beautifully Broken by prettiestoflies

"You shouldn't need to drink to try and drown your feelings Kayla. I've watched the people around me do this all my life and it doesn't fix anything." "I know it won't fix anything, but for right now it helps me forget" "You can't keep running away or hiding. In the end it all catches up." "You sound like you've been through this before." "I guess you could say that." "You want me to open up to you, but are you ever going to open up to me? I want to get to know you Tyler, but you are so closed off. You know why I got knocked over by that wave? Because I was watching you, I was watching your face and seeing how free you felt riding that wave. It's the only time I've ever seen you let go. You know that someone hurt me, but I think you have been hurt too. When you're ready to talk, I'll be waiting. Maybe we can help each other." "Maybe I'm not worth getting to know" he replied. "And maybe I'm not worth you trying to save me either. Or maybe I am" With that I got up and left him to think about what I said. I put my cards on the table, now it was up to him to make the next move. ******** A year ago, Kayla had it all, doting parents and a relationship with her older brother that others envied. By the end of junior year that changed, she's left broken after a series of events in her life, but she is determined to hide her pain from her friends and enjoy the summer.

"Behind Closed Doors" by ariesss1794

Kayla's life seems perfect on the outside-she's a 23-year-old college student with big dreams, a tight circle of friends, and two protective older brothers. She's always been independent, handling her own business and staying focused on her goals. But when she meets Devin, a smooth-talking guy who seems to have it all together, everything starts to change. At first, Devin is everything Kayla could want-charming, attentive, and always making her feel special. But as their relationship deepens, his true colors begin to show. Devin's charm turns to control, and his love turns into something darker. Trapped in an abusive relationship that no one knows about, Kayla finds herself isolated, scared, and unsure of how to escape. With her best friend Lena starting to notice the changes in her, and her brothers Isaiah and Jordan growing suspicious, Kayla struggles to keep her secret while searching for a way out. But leaving Devin isn't as simple as it seems. The deeper she falls into his manipulation, the harder it becomes to break free. In this short, gripping urban drama, Kayla's strength is tested as she fights to reclaim her life and rediscover her voice. Set against the backdrop of city life, "Behind Closed Doors" is a powerful story about love, control, and survival, written in raw, unfiltered Ebonics that captures the realities of living in the streets. Will Kayla find the courage to escape, or will Devin's hold on her drag her down for good?

For what reason does one wake up every day? People had always thought the life of ISAAC RUIZ couldn't be more perfect. Everything he wanted, he would get with his money and influence. What anyone didn't know was his real motivation to keep on living--something that was silly for others, but a salvation for him. For office employee FLORENCE VILLENA, there was no longer any meaning to his existence. Nothing could fill the void he had been experiencing inside him anymore, and he was convinced the world was better off without him in it. At twenty-eight years old, LAURENCE VILLEGAS had a lot of reasons to wish to just sleep forever. Since losing his home and family, the universe had rarely been kind to him. And yet, he chose to survive, time and again, if only for the hope of seeing his life get a little better. On Friday the thirteenth of January 2023, fates began to entangle as Laurence died, Florence killed himself, and Isaac lost his reason to live. Nine months after the incidents, a new dawn fell upon those three lives when a supposedly dead man's soul reawakened in someone else's body. Set in a fictional Asian City called Perlientas. Mature topics: mentions of suicide (actual scene not depicted) and death, mental health and other societal issues, character thoughts that some may find disturbing or triggering, few sexual chapters later in the story Despite those themes, the overall story's pretty tamed.

Let me tell you about Laurabelle Falls. ~~~ When Laura is struck by a drunk driver, she finds herself in a world where she's facing off against incredible evil. She has a cosmic connection to a Goddess of creation, has been living a double life this entire time, and she even has a soulmate.
