Just when she thought she had found stability, a storm from her past reappeared. The man she had loved and lost is back after five long years. His sudden return, claiming her to be his, bewildered her. She recalled the pain of his absence during the darkest times of her life when she needed him the most. He hadn't shown up even as a friend, let alone a lover. Now, he returned, claiming her as if nothing had changed.
She had fought hard to reach where she was-having completed her Master and carved a path for her career-her days as a workaholic had become a shield against the looming threat of depression. Yet, as she stood at this crossroads, the optimist within her whispered the possibility of a fairy tale, but the scars of the past warned her not to trust this sudden twist of fate.
Her internal battle raged on. Should she embrace the opportunity for love that had unexpectedly returned, or should she guard her hard-earned peace? The optimist urged her to run into Shay's arms, to believe that God had finally heard her pleas for a fairy tale ending. But the realist within her questioned the sincerity of his return.

Unconditionally
"What I was suppose to do? You left me, you went to Arizona." I shout at him as he storms away. "Wait for me." He shouts and I go mute. Did he really just say that? Had he really expected me to just sit around? "Oh yeah, just like you did for me." I finally say, finding my voice. "You moved on Elijah and it crushed me," I start as I get emotional and my voice breaks. "You think I don't know? You think that I wasn't hurt? I spent ten months holding onto you and even after that I still won't let you go, I still can't let you go." Elijah flips, shocking me. "You are everything Scarlett...and I am nothing without you." he says, eyes liquid as he stares intently at me. I notice how close we were to each other now. His hand on my waist now and I step in closer to him, heart racing like crazy. "I am nothing without you," he repeats quieter, leaning in towards me. For sixteen year old Scarlett Grey, happiness and love has never been in her favor...or life itself. But all that changes one crazy, complicated, and absolutely confusing summer...Read about Scarlett's tumultuous summer as she discovers things she never knew about life and love and the craziness of it all.Complete
BROKEN VOWS (Lucas & Emilia Book 1)
Choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved... including her. It's why I left the small town where I grew up and vowed never to return. I'm no longer the "golden boy with a bright future" they all remember. Instead, I carry the scars of a tortured past. A broken man deemed unfit, even by the Navy SEALs he'd dedicated the past decade to serve. What was supposed to be a quick trip to sell my parents' property turned into this twisted journey that forced me to confront my demons. And then there she was. My first love, and deepest regret. The woman who still owns every piece of my blackened heart. When she asked for my time, I couldn't refuse. Now I can't walk away. Not after hearing of the danger her husband, a missing FBI agent, has brought to her doorstep. After everything, I owe her my help. It's why I offer to protect her and her two little girls from the danger circling them. It's a vow I never should have made, given the trail of bodies I've left in my wake. Like the harbinger of death, I'm the last man either of us should trust. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lucas & Emilia's story begins here: Book 1 of their Broken Redemption arc. Each couple's love story in the Broken Redemption Series is told over multiple books and forms a complete arc within this collection of connected romances set in the small town of Ruby Creek. There's no required reading order, but if you'd like to start at the very beginning, you're right where you belong. Lucas & Emilia are the first couple, followed by James & Annelly, whose story begins with Broken Misery (Broken Redemption Series - Book 1 of their arc).Complete
Meeting Luke in 27 Days
"I know it doesn't makes sense, to wait for someone for so long just because I am holding on to his promise that he will come back to me. He might have even forgot about that, but still..." I choked as I am trying not cry. "Here I am, looking forward to see him after 7 long years, expecting him to tell me that he's coming back for me." I told her as tears flowed from my eyes. "Adam was right, I never loved anyone but Luke. It was always been Luke for me even if I have exactly no idea what I am for him now. I was just his past, his highschool sweetheart."Complete![Remember Me? [One-Shot]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/231639319-256-k726650.jpg)
Remember Me? [One-Shot]
Remember me? Few years ago... A night to remember. On a shallow road, with a seemingly never-ending rain pouring down heavily, and streetlights barely illuminating the place, silence seemed so right. It was an almost empty road but with two people. Few light rays hit them, making their silhouettes visible from afar. Drenched under the rain, the girl was standing like a statue. And in front of her was the boy, her long-term boyfriend. Her soul mate. The one she had been waiting for. But what is this? He smirked, finally breaking their silence. He told her 'it's over' so quickly, like they just played a game and she lost. He called it quits between her, and walked away without regret. His face, his gestures and his words were like spears stabbed into her soul. He didn't care. And being left alone, her shoulders shook and she covered her face with her hands as tears finally escaped from her eyes. Her knees felt numb and suddenly, she knelt down, still crying. Can you still remember me? I ask you this question. I was that girl few years ago. A fool, naïve girl who still believed that you're the one of the million. That I'm destined to only one man, a prince charming, and I believed it was you. But all of those were few years ago. My thoughts were changed. I began looking forward to an early death. The dream that I've always wanted to, a happy death, became impossible. How happy can I die, if forever, I will always carry and will not forget the memories and the pain you left me? But now my time has come. Time flew too fast. Few minutes more and I will leave Earth. Few short minutes more. I looked at the Seconds hand of the clock nearby. The clock is ticking. The time is running. I still have time to forgive you. Few more time to decide. But thinking about our past... will I still have the heart to forgive you to be able to achieve a happy death?Complete

A Blue Rose
An amorous tale which is not one of grand romantic gestures or picture-perfect moments. It was woven through time, stitched together with silent promises, unspoken feelings, and an unbreakable bond that endured separation, pain and the weight of the past. A girl, who is a war journalist, had spent years witnessing the horror of battlefield, carrying the weight of lost lives and shattered dreams. The war in zahran had taken more from her than she could ever put into words - her peace, her friends and a part of herself she feared she could never reclaim. When she returned, broken and distant, she had one instinct - to run. An she did. Leaving behind him, the only constant she had ever know, without a single goodbye. He searched for her, never giving up, never forgetting. The six years of her absence had changed him too. One night, she returned, but wasn't the same. She carried nightmares in her eyes and scars on her soul. He never once asked her why she left- he just chose to stay. He let his presence speak louder than words, offering her the patience, the space and the quiet love. Their love wasn't rushed. It wasn't dramatic. It was real - formed in the depths of understanding, in the warmth of silent support, in small things that meant everything. It was love that had endured war, separation and time. And in the end, it was love that found it's way back home. Because love like theirs wasn't meant to be lost - it was meant to be fought for.Complete

". . . Yeah?" "It's like that. Immortality is being left behind at camp alone, and you don't know why." She couldn't remember her name. Didn't really matter, plenty of substitutes available.
