Back To You
Madison thought she had closed the door on Tayler forever. Two years ago, she walked away, leaving behind the only boy who ever truly knew her-the one who made her feel safe, seen... and ultimately, shattered. She swore she'd never look back. But now, fate has other plans. Thrown back into each other's lives, Madison tells herself she's over him. That what they had is nothing more than a distant memory. But Tayler? He makes forgetting impossible. He's still the same cocky, flirtatious guy who knows exactly how to push her buttons-and pull her back in. Every lingering glance, every teasing remark feels like a dangerous game, and she's not sure she knows the rules anymore. But between them stands more than just unfinished business. New love, tangled emotions, and the unshakable weight of what once was. Madison knows she should keep her distance, but when it comes to Tayler, that's always been easier said than done. "You still look at me the same way," she muttered, hating the way her voice wavered. Tayler smirked, stepping closer, his voice low and daring. "And you still get flustered when I do." She should leave. She should mean it this time. But what if their story was never meant to end-just to begin again?Complete
Duty and Fate
In a kingdom where loyalty and duty dictate fate, a young warrior is torn between the love she swore to protect and the one she was never meant to fall for. As war brews and betrayal whispers in the halls, she is forced to make an impossible choice-one that will shatter the bonds of childhood, redefine the meaning of love, and lead to a tragic end where neither hero nor villain truly exists.
Happy Ending
This is a short story. It's hard to sum up a short story without giving too much away so I'll just say... this is a story of violence. Of love and hate. Of cages and freedom, both real and in our minds. This is a story of triumph and failure, right and wrong, heroes and villains. Good and evil. It's all a matter of perspective.Complete
