Her Hidden Self | ✓ by mysteriouslypoetic

Some people merely adopt darkness, but she was born into it. Hiding every gloomy secret, covering all the lies, she walks through the life devoid of all emotions. They all labeled her, those silly people, if only they had stop for a moment and observed. Looked into her eyes and see the wreckage behind them, see the hurt and the pain behind that anger. Nobody noticed, nobody tried to care... until that someone. • • • They loath each other and there's nothing anyone could do. Winter and Ethan are like fire and ice, like darkness and light, like hurricane and tornado they don't mix at all. But, fate, my friend is one hell of a player. So, what will happen when Fate works it's magic and the two arch enemies are thrown together? Amidst all the chaos, heart breaks and tears, will the truth finally come out and surrender? or will it act just as stubborn as the person, who hid it. Copyright © mysteriouslypoetic 2018.

I'm not great at writing a summary for them. Please give the story a try, though. You might just like it. I will also try writing a better summary once I write more of the story. My stories always seem to go differently than I originally planned. 😊 #3 in YoungAdults 12/01/2022

In a narrative woven with the threads of resilience and redemption, "Shattered Hearts" explores the profound journey of survival in the face of unimaginable pain.
