"Why do we live?"
"So that we may one day prove ourselves worthy of dying," she says without much thought.
"And what is death?"
"Victory," Oliver replies with a sullen grin.
He smiles. "Is that what you really believe?"
"It's what you taught us to believe," Eden says, his hair a stroke of golden in the afternoon light.

BACK TO SCHOOL
The teacher glared at her, gaze stern, lips twitching into a sadistic smile: "Then sacrifice your life. Go on. But you won't, will you? You're no saint-you're not that selfless. It's fine. We're all selfish. Admit it: you'd rather save your own skin than give a damn about a friend bleeding out. You'll live with the guilt, the gnawing that never stops, but at least you'll still be breathing. That's how it is. Everyone chooses survival. We're all the same breed, with the same sick mind."

Black Roses on Her Grave
He was never meant to love her. She was never meant to survive him. ☾༺♰༻☽ Adelise has always been an outcast, scorned for her auburn hair and the curse it represents to the superstitious folk. When she crosses paths with Ares, a vampire who has spent half a century locked in solitude, she becomes entangled in a dangerous fate that neither of them can escape. Ares has vowed never to trust a human again, but something about Adelise threatens to unravel everything he thought he knew. At the heart of their story lies an ancient relic, a time puzzle crafted from shattered mirrors and forbidden magic. It does not merely reflect the past, it bends it, distorts it, and opens a doorway to a future neither of them expected. Across fractured timelines, their lives intertwine in ways they cannot fully understand, bound by love, fate, and the secrets the puzzle refuses to reveal all at once. A dark, gothic romance novella filled with longing, betrayal, and second chances, Black Roses on Her Grave poses the reader with one question: If you could change fate, would you? ☾༺♰༻☽ Ranked #1 in Vampire Romance (Jan 2026) Ranked #1 in Gothic Romance (Jan 2026) Wattpad Vampire Ambassador Recommended list (May 2026)Concluída

"You told them you love me ,huh?" He asks with a raised eyebrows, jaw hardened and eyes narrowed at the shy girl he has hated all his life. She was afraid of his tone,he didn't looked happy with her confession. Was her love going to be unrequited one? "I fuck*** asked you something Ezra! Answer me!" His tone made her gulp,his grip on her arm made her flinch in fear. "Yes" She finally answered looking into his emotionless eyes. Smirking he laughed at her confession,not believing her. "Ezra,do you even know what love is,Oh I almost forgot you are an Orphan,how would you know?" His words were sharp as knife, piercing her healed wounds. She fisted her hands, trying to control her tears. He sighed in frustration running his hand through his hair. "Now mom will not stop till she has made you her daughter in law! Fu**! Why you!" He said ,pacing the room . Oblivion to the tears ,she tried her best to hide. He didn't love her. He never did, she was a fool to even think that he for once did. Hate is all he had for her and those who said hate is the beginning of love,were fools mocking her right now. Gathering the little pride left in her she answers back in a quivering voice. "Yes,I love you. But I don't want anything from you." She says and he stares.Confused at her weird confession. Who says that ? "Nothing you say? Are you playing some brain games girl?" She lowers her eyes and leaves but not before whispering the words that made him feel something after a very long time. "Love is not something to learn ,but to feel Aaron. And I know what I feel. You may name it infatuation and lust,but I proudly call it my selfless love" ....................................................................Concluída
We Will Never Sleep
"Goodbye, Oliver." I say, softly. He looks up at me, tears in his eyes. "Why do you leave now?" "Because I'm going to fix myself before I see you again." I promise. "You don't need to be fixed." "I need to be fixed, Oliver. I'm Shadow and Guardian at heart. No room for Elemental. I'll miss playing with water, though." I joke, the humor running dry. Oliver's eyes grow dark. "Just go." He says, closing his eyes. This was his true emotions showed. "What do you want me to say next, Sage?" He asks in a demanding manner. "That I'm okay knowing what those scars mean? That I know at any moment, something can burst into my room, and I'd never know? I was better off not knowing!" He spits out every word with venom, and I sense an ending reaching us. "Hell, I was better without you." "Good." I say shortly, turning my back to him, and picking up my luggage.Concluída![Aurelia [h.s.]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/45562405-256-k200309.jpg)
Aurelia [h.s.]
"Aren't you afraid?" "Of what? Dying?" "Yes, exactly that." She took a moment to deliberately pick the right words in her mind because she knew he was going to ask why the moment after she answered, "No. Death is unavoidable, it's a part of life that is inescapable since birth. It's written in our very nature. The problem is that people spend too much time worrying about death and not living their lives to their fullest potential. We were born to both live and die and that seems to be forgotten somewhere along the way. I am not afraid of dying even though I could die at any given day at any given time because I'm making the most of my life and I know that something better awaits me when I go." [Edited!]Concluída
