After a year abroad, Arcelia has finally settled into Manhattan. Cooking, cleaning and studying alone is no longer difficult for her in a foreign country, but she hasn't yet arrived emotionally in New York. The Traumas and experience from long past days still have a firm grip on her.
26-year-old Aresius has had to go through a lot in his life. It wasn't until he joined the army at the age of 20 that he learned how to deal with his problems. The hard days are now far behind and he has built a life for himself. It's not perfect, but he's making the best of it, until one night a girl asked him for a cigarette, calling him pet names that changes everything.
Will Aresius be able to help Arcelia or will Arcelia drag him down with her?
sneaky peek:
"Ares," she whispered softly as I begin to fall asleep.
"What?" I replied, already knowing that what she will say next will either be the most beautiful, profound and mind blowing poetic quote that would make even Shakespeare roll over in his grave in jealousy or...the other stuff.
"What do you call a factory that makes okey products?" she asked, her whole body shaking as she tried to suppress her laughter, "a satisfactory" she replied to her own joke bursting into a fit of giggles and crying with laughter.
...so, it was the other stuff.
"Go to sleep crazy woman" I grunted as I tried to suffocate her with a pillow.

Love in paradise
Eolia had always been obsessed with video games, so much so that she turned her passion into a career. But there was one game that consumed her like no other-despite countless attempts, she could never get the perfect ending with her favorite character. One fateful night, as a thunderstorm raged outside, she plugged in her phone, hoping for one more chance at the elusive victory. Then, a lightning bolt struck her house, short-circuiting the entire electrical system. Her phone sent a jolt of electricity through her, and everything went black. When she opened her eyes again, the sound of the ocean filled her ears, and the warmth of the Miami sun kissed her skin. Confused, she staggered to her feet and gazed at the unfamiliar beach before her. At the far end, an elderly man lay unconscious, his heart failing. Without a second thought, she rushed to him, performing CPR and bringing him back to life. Grateful beyond measure, the man, a wealthy middle-class person, offered an unexpected reward-his choice of one of his three grandchildren to marry. It was in that moment Eolia realized something incredible and terrifying had happened. She wasn't just in a new place-she had stepped into a world far beyond the screen.

𝐀 𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐘 𝐀𝐂𝐂𝐈𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐓
🎀𝐀 𝐆𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐆𝐢𝐫𝐥'𝐬 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲🎀 16+ (𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐝)(undergoing a makeover lol) 𝐋𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐮𝐫𝐚 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐦𝐬 is a struggling artist with dpd, just trying to get her art work noticed. When all things fail, she decides to go to a party her friend invited her to, hoping to let loose and forget all her problems, but what she didn't know was that this was a typical frat party, meaning Liliura was going to have to be extra careful. At least she tried...until she decided to take a drink from a random guy. She blacked out only to wake up in a holding cell. It didn't help that she didn't remember anything that happened at the party or that the tattooed Greek god sitting next to her invaded every thought in her mind. -𐀔- "Do you by any chance have 50,000 dollars?" I looked at her with a raised eyebrow. Why would a girl like her need that much money? It must have something to do with why she was in the holding cell. When she noticed I didn't answer her eyes shined with nervousness. Usually I'd like to see the uneasiness in people but, on her, I'm not so sure I like it. "Why do you need it?" I said, causing her eyes to widen as she quickly averted her eyes to anything else but me. "Well, I might have destroyed a very expensive painting and I kind of need to pay the people back-and before you say anything, it wasn't my fault, it was drunk me fault." I let out a sigh and ran my hand through my hair. This girl is something else. -𐀔- Follow the werid, cute and complicated relationship of Victor and Liliura including: Emotional scenes Corny Jokes Romance And so much drama that it will make you feel like your watching a reality tv show. -hope you like it- [warnings are included] *The Main Character has Little space syndrome therefore her actions might seem childish and odd.*Complete

It's a story of light against darkness, hope against bitterness-and the question of whether even the hardest hearts can be softened. (i'm so bored so idk enjoy or not idc xx)Complete

Even her long, curled lashes. "Let's do a butterfly kiss!" She exclaims, pulling my face close suddenly. Kiss? My heart hammers in my chest, my breath hitching. Her small hands hold my face close to hers. It's not very forceful, I could pull away if I wanted to, but I let her have control. Her hands are warm and soft against my jaw. Getting closer, her eyes lashes flutter and I find myself holding my breath. She brushes her lashes to mine, her breath fanning against my lips. Subconsciously, I lean forward, wanting my lips to be on hers. June flutter her lashes, grazing her lashes to mine. Out of nowhere she bursts out in a fit of laughter. I flinch back. Butterfly kiss. That was not a fucking kiss. ~ ❀ ~ #1 cliche 2025 & 2026 #1 sweatheart 2025 #1 opposites 2026 *Warning* Mature themes will be covered (language, actions, etc).Complete
