The ghost from her past returned to haunt her incessantly, leaving no room for escape. The desire for total freedom consumed her every thought. Will she ever be free? Will she ever find the one who would love her regardless of her past?

My heart bleeds on paper by Buccay

..."Are you free tonight?" he asks and I look at him crazily like 'sho wa okay?' but he repeats the question "Are you free tonight?" "work" I sigh out "tomorrow night?" he asks again "work" I speak He just smiles and tells me "Wonderful, so it's a date then. I'll pick you up tomorrow night by 8 pm and please bring your camera"...

Too Good to Be Real by royalty__writes

She felt his warm palm on her wrist and at once she was facing him. Without warning, his lips engulfed hers, setting her on fire just like she did him. His lips were warm and soft and she revelled in it as she shut her eyes, her body instantly warming up to the kiss. She wrapped her arms around him, marvelling at how their bodies fit perfectly together. It felt so good, like her head was rotating. Nothing else mattered. Just the two of them. This was all she needed. Someone who accepted her for her. Her flaws, her beauty, herself, hook line and sinker. She withdrew reluctantly, angry she had to stop the kiss and also afraid someone had seen them. As she stared into his eager eyes, she knew she loved him but she couldn't help thinking she was doing the wrong thing. She loved him, but it wasn't fair to his girl. She could do anything, run, apologise, but she followed her heart. She drew him back and continued the kiss. A Nigerian themed story bound to leave you yearning for the next chapter.
