{Her innocence was taken. Her innocence was lost. Lylibeth Adams became something else. Something else that is meant for vengeance.}
In the quiet depths of her mind, a storm raged. A tempest of emotions that she couldn't quite understand or control. It was as if a part of her was missing, a piece of her soul that had been torn away by some unknown force. Like someone had clawed inside her and ripped away her soul. And yet, she couldn't quite remember what happened. All she knew was the pain that lingered and an ache that never quite went away. An ache that broke her mentally and physically. It tore away her innocence with something long, hard, and musty.
Lylibeth, a child who mysteriously vanished along with two other kids on a cold November and was found days later on the side of a road, has recently returned to her hometown. With broken and ill-paced thoughts, she slowly succumbs to vague memories, unexplainable events, and incomprehensible actions. As she struggles to piece together what is happening to her. What had happened to her and what will happen to her, a secret kept for years makes itself known.
A monstrous secret that people around her would keep hidden, even if it cost their lives.

Story Highlights: He was once the light in every room-charming, generous, full of effortless warmth. Raised in comfort and surrounded by love, his world was golden and untouched by sorrow. But life shifted-quietly. The boy who gave so much began turning inward, learning to care for himself in silence. Laughter faded. Connections dimmed. Though wealth remained, he chose to rebuild from his own scars. Maturity wasn't a choice-it was survival. Now, he moves through life as a stylish, enigmatic wanderer-fit, guarded, alone. He trusts less, feels deeper, and carries secrets no one knows. Yet beneath it all, he waits-for something real, for someone who sees all of him. She, on the other hand, was born into silence. A soft, chubby girl with kind eyes who grew up under the weight of control, judgment, and emotional bruises. Her home lacked safety. The world, even less. But in her darkest moments, she found strength-in a quiet prayer, in a movie that sparked hope, in a spiritual bond with Ganesha that anchored her soul. Slowly, she stitched herself back together-becoming fierce in love, loud in laughter, and deep in belief. She doesn't need saving. She needs to be seen-for the strong woman she's become and the wounded girl she carries within. What happens when two broken souls-one guarded by silence, the other forged in pain-cross paths not in chaos, but in quiet? When love doesn't come to rescue, but to reveal? Can he open his heart again? Can she believe that love, this time, will stay? Will he return to his family not as the boy who left, but as the man love helped him become? Will she finally be seen-not as someone to fix, but as someone to cherish?
Caged By Him
"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine." All I could do was tremble at his touch. How can someone so beautiful be so heartless? ~~~~~~~~~~ All a 19 year old Aurora Shaw wanted to do was work to make a living and volunteer at the orphanage.
