dreams endure family goals happiness katykeene love memoir self-love shortstory

Since I was young, I wanted to fly. To soar through the clouds and feel the wind envelope my entire body. It was the one thing I've always wanted to do. But, as years go by, my wings are clipped little by little. "You can't have wings, I'm sorry. If you leave, how will we survive without you?" I had forgotten. My family needs me. How could I even think about flying?

BASED ON A TRUE STORY

Life is so hard in general. You have to struggle so hard just to survive in this world, and it's even more harder if you have dreams and goals. For the #KatyKeene writing challenge, I wanted to share why it was so hard  to get where I am now. I didn't accomplish anything big or grand, but I've established something I longed for for so long: a chance for self discovery. To show who I am and discover things about myself, because I never got the chance to. Please give this a read, I promise it'll be more interesting than what you expect!All Rights Reserved

The Blind Werewolf Princess (1st book of Werewolf Series) by RissaleWriter

I always thought that the streets were a place that I was going to end up at. I always thought that I would end up dead on the streets because of... my disability. I always thought that I would have no family and no one to care about me as I cared for others. And yet, that all changed when she walked into my life. She brought me a family, and to this day, I could not understand why she chose me and not someone else. Not only did she walk into my life, but she also changed it. She changed it for better or worse, and I could not decide which was possible because she and her family were different. They were something much more than what people could see. And I was different. Not only was I blind, but I was also a Princess. I was a princess of this strange group, and I had been hidden away from birth. At the time, I did not know who I was being hidden from, but when I found out who I was hiding from, I was glad that I had been hidden. Because, if I surely had not been hidden, then I would surely have died. _______________________________________ NOTE: IF YOU READ THIS BOOK ON ANY OTHER APP BESIDES WATTPAD THEN IT IS COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT.

Prey by Kheinnox

by nature, im a loner. nobody dares to bully me though. try as they might they cant fathom my strength and ability. but it comes with a price. nobody even dares to call me a friend without peeing their pants in fright. but this tiny vixen got the courage to sway me into submission to his every whim and wishes. im a top predator and hes of the lowest of low. but why cant i get enough of him? born in a world where humans and shifters intermingle and common in society, ive became someone my parents are proud of. ive never dreamed of disappointing them. hence, i tried my best to be likeable to everyone. and i mean everyone. i tend to shape my personality to fit in to avoid the bitter reality that if they knew my kind, i for sure be up under their feet. survival of the fittest they might say. but how come when im with you, i smiled sincerely. i converse wholeheartedly. i touch you honestly. the heavens might strike us due to our incompatibility but can society really be the basis to how and whom we truly convey our feelings? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- if you're interested, please, see my other books: First Book: worthy to be mine Blessed Moon Series: blessed moon saved love warm thirst silenced 2nd Generation Blessed Moon Series: freak siren's call craving death impeccably yours solace Other Books: violet prison prey i read comments and i reply to them occassionally. i read messages and i reply to them if necessary. please leave votes if you like them. im super thankful for giving me your leisure time to read my works. see you on my other books.

I wished for a Boyfriend not a Girlfriend (GxG, Lesbian) °editing° by FallinginReverze

I was awakened by a buzz, but I don't want to get up, instead I lay still on my bed and about to dream again when I heard a THUD, I flinched at the sound. It's Saturday so I'm not expecting anyone at this early in the morning. I'm not a morning person, I am now annoyed to whoever it is. "Coming!" I yelled and started walking which took me sometime because I literally took my time, don't blame me I'm still sleepy, I opened the door to see a very beautiful woman, she has long wavy hair, thick eyelashes and pink pout lips and lastly... a body to die for. I frowned when I realized a high-school student? I can say because she's wearing a uniform. What is a beautiful high-school girl doing here knocking at my door? I asked mentally. I was about to ask her when she suddenly slipped inside my condo and sit on the couch cozily, I crossed my arms and face her still frowning. "Miss what are you doing here? What do you need?" I asked her curiously. She looked at me and smiled, a smile that can make men drool, but I'm not because I'm still annoyed. "I am your girlfriend" she said sweetly, my eyes widened in shock, I know I'm drunk last night but I don't remember having a girlfriend. I was about to say something when she stood up and face me leaning so much closer that were inches apart. "You wished for me, last night on the internet" oh crap! Now I remember! I was browsing the net when a certain ad captures my attention. "But I wished for a BOYFRIEND! Not a Girlfriend!!?" How do you handle a situation where there's NO REFUND and NO EXCHANGE?

In Loving Memory of My Brother by CroodsGirl

|5X FEATURED · SPOTLIGHT STORY| Learning to cope with death is one of the most challenging obstacles any of us has to face, especially if that death is unexpected. When your whole world has changed, what do you do to overcome grief and keep your loved one's memory alive? *** I never knew how much trauma could affect a person until after my older brother died unexpectedly on August 17th, 2021. I came out of the experience as not the Victoria I was used to, but the Victoria who now had a massive hole in her heart. I come from a long line of fighters. My family and I pulled off different strategies to help us move on from such a devastating death, strategies that I am going to share in this book. Sometimes, the best way to overcome grief is to write about it. After all, writing is an escape to a different world where I still have my Green Guardian. These pieces and pictures I'm going to share with you are not meant to depress anybody, but to illustrate just how wonderful a person Matthew was. His story is sad, but it's a story of hope. His legacy remains in my heart today, and I want to share it because I know I'm not the only person who has lost somebody so unexpectedly. *** Ovid (on when his brother died): "iamque decem vitae frater geminaverat annos, cum perit, et coepi parte carere mei."

LET ME HATE YOU by AnjaaniSadek

A marriage neither wanted. A hatred neither understands. Two strangers tied by a past that stains everything between them. He never wanted a wife. Especially not her. Cold, distant, and poisoned by assumptions, Amaan enters the forced marriage with one intention- to keep his distance and keep his resentment alive. Asmaira enters with something far heavier- guilt. Not to protect him. Not to save him. But because she knows the truth of what happened... and she cannot bear to confess it. They have never met. But the moment they do, the air turns sharp- full of tension, unspoken accusations, and the kind of hate that feels too much like longing. He despises her for a sin she never committed. She punishes herself for a sin she never confessed. And marriage turns into a battleground where silence is a weapon... and closeness is a threat. In this house, love is impossible. Trust is deadly. But hatred? Hatred is the only thing keeping them alive.
