Y/N had long since perfected the art of hiding the cracks in her heart, a quiet ache that lingered beneath the surface, unnoticed by the world around her. Trust had been shattered too many times, leaving behind only the remnants of love she once gave so freely. The weight of solitude clung to her like a second skin, and each day she walked through life as though she were a ghost, watching the world pass by, yearning for something she couldn't quite reach. But when the night embraced her, when sleep whispered its soft lullaby, everything changed. In the silence of her dreams, something shifted-though her eyes could not see, her heart felt it. It was a presence, gentle yet unyielding, that made her believe, just for a moment, that there was more to life than the ache she carried. A presence that whispered in the stillness, as though it had always known her, waiting in the spaces where dreams met reality. In that sacred space, between waking and sleeping, Y/N began to feel the warmth of something new. It was not a dream, but something more-a promise, tender yet powerful, that whispered softly to her soul. "I can't promise you a perfect world, but in this moment, let me be the one who never lets you go." In The Dreamer's Embrace, Y/N begins a journey where the weight of silence starts to lift, revealing a connection she never expected-a love, not of fantasy, but something she's always longed for. Will she open her heart to this strange, beautiful presence, or will the weight of her past keep her trapped in the shadows?
Sonder
Content Warning in first chapter (extremely nsfw) sonder/sande/ * noun The realization that every living being has a life as complex as your own. They experience pain, suffering, happiness and life just as vivid as you do. _________________________________________________________________________________ In his life, Shinsou could confidently say he's loved exactly three people romantically; and they each taught him something very important. The first time he fell for someone - an attraction many people would call puppy love, though he disagreed - was with a man named Takami Keigo, or Hawks as he so adored being called for reasons Shinsou never thought to ask. The second man he loved was named Todoroki Touya; Dabi, he preferred. He was a good person at heart, but his actions and habits were as toxic as the substances he abused. And the last one he fell for, perhaps the most important person; Kaminari Denki. He was bright and warm, his smile lit up the room and Shinsou's dark thoughts seemed to just shrivel up and die whenever they were together. And he taught Shinsou to forgive and let go of the past.Complete

The Contract Of Hearts
Nine Years earlier, Zane Callen, a boy with inclination towards creation, had presented his heart-and a metal rose, which he had made himself-to a girl named Kanami Hanako. But unfortunately for him, she squashed such hopes and instead of holding on to it and treasuring it, she threw it into a puddle that simply ruined its bright red color signifying his refusal. Now however, the force of nature seems to conjoin them once again, more so due to the greed harbored by families. Kanami's rich and powerful family has negotiated the marriage of Zane to their daughter Kanami with Zane's family whereby if he agrees to marry her, the family will be compensated with great wealth. However, there's a condition- that Kanami and Zane will be together with each other at their university in Japan for as long as they are in school, they will 'revive' the lost love. Kanami, spoiled and bossy, at first treats it as a bother, while Zane, dealing with the scars left by her, finds it hard to get involved emotionally. Still, they interact differently, on the daily basis. As Kanami slowly comes to terms with Zane and grows feelings for him, she is forced to come to terms with her own faults and, more significantly, the consequences of her previous conduct. Zane, on the other hand, does not know whether he can trust her or whether he risks loving her again. For both, the contract raises a question they are not ready to face: is there a possibility for love to grow in the midst of duty? Or shall the slits in their souls become so profound that even healing will not be possible? With a year on the countdown, Zane and Kanami must now now approach the question of whether this wedding is purely a transactional affair or takes an opportunity for, self-development, comfort and most importantly, true love.
