"What are you so afraid of?" he asked, stepping closer until I couldn't move. I felt trapped between him and the wall, and my breath caught in my throat.

I looked down, tears streaming from my eyes, and whispered, "...love." I was broken, and he seemed like someone who could break me once and for all. Can I trust him?

He sets his sight on her as his next victim of the week but she rejects him. Humiliated and unable to get over the rejection, he sets out to unravel the secrets she clings to so tightly.

He holds the power to either shatter her fragile heart or mend it once and for all.

What will it be?

Silhouettes Of A Vanishing Duet by Angelica_Zuri

Ours was a love that unraveled before it could be woven, a story written in ink that would never dry. Ephemeral, haunting, and destined to fade before it could truly begin. We were never meant to share the same path. He was a star burning far beyond my reach, and I was the earthbound dreamer who watched him glow. Yet, by some unseen force-fate, chance, or something crueler-our worlds intertwined for a fleeting moment. From the instant I saw him, I felt the pull, the quiet inevitability of him. He was never meant to stay, and I was never meant to hold on. But knowing this did nothing to stop me. I reached for him anyway, drawn by a force I could neither name nor resist.

Unrequited by ofcrimeandpassion

"Why do you allow me back into your life? You know I'm only going to push you away again," he said with all honestly, not to hurt her, but because he knew how he behaved with her. And a part of him doubted that he would change. Even for her. "Because one day, you are going to realize what we have, and you won't push me away," she answered. It's funny how life can be so perfect one moment, and so awful the next. Other people are usually the cause of this back and forth, but what if it was just one person? One who couldn't love themselves, so they were incapable of loving others? John and Arianna have known each other since they were young. Friends, lovers, enemies: they have been through it all. They go through years of ups and downs, the losses, the gains, the middle ground as they try to find their way. Find their life. Will they be together? Or will circumstances keep tearing them apart? Only time will tell if their love will remain... Unrequited.

Avery doesn't believe in second chances or happy endings. Her past is a jagged puzzle she's learned to keep hidden beneath a smile, and she keeps her distance from everyone to protect herself from the inevitable pain of being let down. But when she meets Jasper, a mysterious new student with a magnetic presence, everything she thought she knew about love, trust, and herself is thrown into question. Jasper isn't like anyone Avery has met before. There's something about him-an unspoken understanding in his eyes, a quiet pull that drags her closer, no matter how much she pushes him away. But behind his calm exterior lies a past as fractured as her own, one that will either bring them together or tear them apart. As their lives become entwined, secrets unravel, emotions flare, and the line between love and pain becomes impossible to ignore. But in a world of broken promises, can they both heal-or will their hearts remain shattered?

Something blossoming by DivineCinn

Thaw the iced glaze over her eyes, melt to cold walls around her with my touch, my attention. Her: I could see the sunshine though the water like an oil painting. Breathtaking. I reached my arm up, as if to touch it, only to meet more water. I frowned. Staying there till my lungs burned, how easy would it be. To just stay here, at the bottom of this creek. Staring at the oil painted sun until my body finally gave up trying to find air. I would just drift away with the water. No one here. No one was around. How peaceful. How fitting to end my violent story with the soft ripples of this creek. -------------------------- Mature themes Both broken. Both with dark pasts. Can they overcome the demons together?
