When trauma and PTSD take away Dion's voice, he fully accepts it. Safe and sound in his small hometown in Colorado, population: 51, he embraces the silence of his existence, wanting nothing more than to get through each day without being reminded of the past. Most days, he succeeds, until she comes to town, bringing the pain of his past right to his front door.

Saylor has never been out of the big city, so finding herself in a town so small that there isn't even a motel, let alone any fast food, is a whole new experience for her. Especially considering that she's there to settle the affairs of a father she never met, one with a dark reputation whose history just happens to coincide with a quiet local boy.

Though Dion is obligated into helping Saylor in her quest, the more time they spend together, the more he realizes he doesn't want to let her go.

But Saylor's only in town for a week. How can she bear to help Dion heal only to leave him when the time comes to go home? And how can Dion find his voice again in time to ask her to stay?All Rights Reserved

Four Walls (Book One) ✔️ by neurotick

"You ungrateful bitch. I keep a roof over your head, and this is the thanks I get?" "You could have killed her," I retort, trying to muster up confidence that I don't possess. "What if she goes to the cops, Dad? That bruise on her face is enough to get you arrested and charged with assault." "What? You mean when she tripped over the mess you made in the kitchen?" His smile is so wicked that it chills me to my core. "She ain't going to the cops. Hell, she'll probably be back here tomorrow." "You're a bastard," I whisper, tears filling my eyes. "No wonder Mom left! She probably couldn't bear to spend another second with-" I'm pushed to the floor. I scramble backwards as he approaches me, his cheeks scarlet with rage, his pupils the size of needle points. In fourteen years, I've never seen him this mad. I've really done it this time. -------------------- (COMPLETED) Life is hard when nowhere feels like home. For Layla Dodds, there is only one goal: survival.

Submerged by LiricaMalena

They say hope is the last thing to lose. If you lose hope, you lose everything. Anyone who loses their faith, their reason, also loses their soul.

A strange anomaly of the human mind swept the world, and she was alone, with very few clues about the whereabouts of her family. She had to be brave and confront those who had already lost everything. What she didn't know was that chaos had already spread worldwide. Entire cities destroyed, families lost, and the faith of the few who still stood slowly fading away. Replaying the images of her loved ones over and over in her mind, she will have to face those who have lost their hopes, turning into violent beings with a thirst to destroy everything around them, including themselves. (ANY TYPE OF COPYING OR PLAGIARISM OF THIS STORY OR ANY ASPECT OF IT IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED. THIS STORY BELONGS 100% TO ME AND MY IMAGINATION). - HISTORY FINISH!!

It'd be nice if you keep reading till the end and I'd appreciate your support for this new hobby of mine. You're free to call me out on any errors or scenes that you don't like in the comments, be nice though. I really would love to read your comments on the book, so keep commenting, I'll try to always reply. Luv u. Enjoy.

Left without closure, a year has passed and Brian is now more determined than ever to undo the harm done to the ones he loves most, his family. Even if that means riding the thin line between justice, revenge, and obsession... Immersed in his resolve, finding love again was the last thing on his mind. Until fate steps in and a chance encounter changes everything. Meeting Olivia again so unexpectedly, at his best friend's wedding, stirs up memories he had long ago put away.

He knows it, the moment she locks her deep green eyes on his. Even knowing it might be too late to repair what's been once broken, Brian refuses to lose her again and sets out to find a way back to her heart. But it's been more than ten years since their story was left unfinished. Will they get one last chance to make things right? Or will Brian learn that sometimes justice comes at too high a price? *** NOTE TO READERS: A full-length, standalone contemporary romance, Where the Stars Fall was previously published on Wattpad as Falling Home.

"Being mute isn't a disability. It just means that God loves you so much that He took away your voice so that you don't hurt others verbally. You see, He doesn't want you to do what others are doing to you." ⌔ ⌔ ⌔ ⌔ ⌔ ⌔ ⌔ When Sierra Bloom suffers a tragedy that costs her both her family and her voice, she shuts down every bit of emotion and passion within her and brings out a new and cold her that doesn't like being around people and things that are easy to get attached to.

What do you do when you are ripped from the only life you know? How do you move forward when you have nothing left to live for?

Staring death in the face, Ali is ready to give in, but God might have a plan for her after all. She finds herself crossing paths with a reenactment that confuses her as much as it intrigues her. She is suddenly surrounded by strangers who, in their foreign ways, want to help her. After a devastating loss in her past, Ali is skeptical of finding happiness regardless of her location. However, something about a pair of dark eyes captures her attention and she cannot seem to keep herself at a distance. He challenges her in ways she thought no one ever could and he gives her the safety she did not know she needed. With no one left to miss her back home, Ali creates a bond with those around her, while remembering the life she was taken from and the people she has lost. Is it possible to find something she did not know she longed for in such a strange place? Can Ali let go of her pain and allow herself to heal? What if it is all just a dream? What if it is not?

That's what people do. That's what everyone does. Keep their demons buried and tell lies to keep them buried. And people love so that they can heal, so that they can find relief from continuously battling their demons. To have someone to share their burden with. And havoc occurs when the demon is stronger than your will, when love isn't enough to keep the monster at bay. " A girl, torn between her heart and mind. A boy, set out to avenge his parents.
