Cheska, a girl whose heart bore the weight of abandonment, had carried the scars of her past with her throughout her life. The wounds ran deep, originating from the neglect she had endured at the hands of her parents. Their absence had left her with profound attachment issues, a longing for love that seemed insatiable.
In her quest for affection and belonging, Cheska had yearned for a girl's love. She had sought solace in the arms of others, hoping to fill the void within her. But despite her desperate pleas, reality delivered her a harsh check. The love she had sought was elusive, slipping through her fingers like sand, leaving her feeling even more lost and broken.
However, despite the pain and disappointment, Cheska's story took a turn. Through the darkness, she found resilience and strength within herself. She reached a pivotal moment of self-reflection, where she realized that true healing could not be found in the arms of another, but within the depths of her own being.

The Unbound Heart: A Journey of the Shattered and the Resilient
She wasn't supposed to send that message. Chaska has spent years fighting to survive-escaping a past filled with control, heartbreak, and choices that nearly broke her. Life was predictable. Safe. Lonely. Until one message opens a door she wasn't ready for. What starts as a simple conversation slowly becomes something she can't ignore-something that changes the way she sees the world, and herself. But distance, secrets, and the shadows of her past are never far behind. When dreams begin to feel more real than reality, how far would you go for something that might never last? ⚠️ Content & Maturity Notice: This story is intended for mature readers (18+).

Throw in a bitter old man, a doe eyed little girl, and a silent little boy, as they try to help one another survive. The endless life changing isolation and trauma they just endured they will never be the same... They need one another as a raft. Not to just float above all the sharks but to make it out alive and keep one another sane. ••• "Lucas's strong hands pulled me up and I sat like a lifeless doll in front of him. He gave me yet another blank stare then turned, once again, to the water as if it was actually entertaining him. I felt frustrated as I huffed loudly to get his attention. He turned to me still with his bone-chilling stare. It was a cold stare but I still found my safety in it oddly enough. I stared at him blankly getting lost, forgetting why I came over here. I sat there as the raft slowly rocked back and forth. "Need anything?"

Lights at the ends of tunnels: Thirty (GxG)
In 1992, Jane lost her best friend in the whole world: her stepsister, María. With her went her emotional centre, her sense of self-worth. But now, maybe, she thinks she may have found her again. But will the reunion be everything she wanted? How will the years apart have changed them? Explicit, with references to self-harm and eating disorders, this is a passionate and emotional read. Praise for Thirty: "Beautiful story. The quick moving plot was still full of detail, heartache, and character development. Thanks for sharing!" author CreatingKate "There's a manic energy to the opening page and I picture Jane rocking, clenching in anguish at losing Maria. That mania that hollowed her out, that fed self-harm, that threaten to snuff her out.. She was lucky to survive and surely it was Maria that kept her going and fuelled the obsessive search? Then what do you do when you meet your salvation? How do you deal with that? Now we know, or at least we know how you lived it. This was so real, it didn't read like fiction. Raw and beautiful. Thank you." author stickygirlComplete

-Call Me Bre- (Calum Hood)
She was the outsider. The girl that sat at the back of the class and never raised her hand. The girl the sat alone at lunch because everyone thought she was weird for not speaking. She was the girl that had a million thoughts running through her head but had zero guts to say them. She was the girl you don't normally fall for but, then, she became the girl that captured the heart of the guy everyone loved. ---- "Shit, I'm sorry" A deep voice mumbled squatting down to help her up. A rough hand pulled her up and her blurry vision landed on dark eyes. She blinked a few times and her vision came back. Standing in front of her was a boy about her age. A very attractive boy. He was almost a foot taller than her 5'3 height. His black hair was slicked back and his tan skin radiated under the fluorescent school lights. Her mouth was slightly ajar as she stared at him. She hadn't realized how close she was to him until she felt his breath on her lips. She jerked away, grabbed her glasses on the floor and ran away in the opposite direction leaving the boy to furrow his eyebrows at her behavior. However, a small smirk played on his lips as he placed his hands in his jeans pockets and turned in the opposite direction. 'Stupid, Stupid, Stupid' She thought to herself.Complete
