"It's like . . . you know how at the end of summer camp or college everyone packs all their stuff up and drives off before you so they can go home and reunite with family, and the whole camp is empty and you're standing in the middle of your vacant dorm because your ride isn't here yet?"
". . . 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. They almost numbered the amount of years she'd been in this world. Luckily for her, there was one reason she was still here, and as soon as she figured out what the hell it was she could fix it and move on.
He remembered her. And what she looked like, how she took her coffee, everything. He couldn't get her out of his head. She was his muse, a glimpse into the impossible where he may finally have something to write about. But what happens when inspiration turns into love, especially with someone who is unable to reciprocate it?
Does tragedy or intimacy await them?
What is destiny, really?

His presence was a command, his gaze a challenge. He took what he wanted, and he didn't apologize for it. He built his empire on ruthlessness, on decisions made without a single flicker of compassion. The word "love" was a foreign concept to him, a vulnerability he had long ago purged from his system. He had never met anyone who could make him question his own power, let alone someone he would sacrifice for. For him, the world was a resource to be exploited, not a place to be protected for someone else's sake. She was defined by her innocence and her childlike wonder. She saw the world not as it was, but as it could be-a place of endless fun and kindness. Her laughter was contagious, her spirit a whirlwind of energy. She approached every person and situation with an honest, open heart, completely unaware of the complexities and cruelties of the adult world. She was a breath of fresh air, a pure soul who had never been cynical, never been hurt, and never lost her childlike joy. Their love story began not with grand gestures, but with the subtle shift in two hearts-one that had never loved, and one that was just learning what it felt like to be loved so completely.
Midnight Rain
She said it like it was nothing - " This isn't a movie, Emnet. Let me go. But that's exactly why I can't. "I know it's not a movie ,Niv," I whisper, trying to keep my voice steady but failing miserably. " That's why I am still here. Because if I let you go now......there won't be a miracle to bring you back . Not like in the movies. I lose you , and thats it." ♡♡♡♡♡ She's haunted by her past-memories she never speaks of, scars she's learned to hide behind ambition and diplomacy. Falling in love? That was never part of the plan. Especially not with him. But he makes her forget the weight she carries... even if just for a moment. All she wants is a happy ending-one where she isn't a burden, where love doesn't come with guilt. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ He's a man who's spent his whole life being needed, but never truly loved. Calculative, cold to the world-but from the moment he saw her, something shifted. She's the exception. The ache. The soft spot he never thought he'd have. And he'll love her in every way she never believed she deserved. But was this just a fleeting connection between two lonely souls? Or something deeper-something that might finally silence the noise in their heads? ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Crimson Devotion
WLW DARK SPICY ROMANCE I should've ignored her the moment our eyes met. Instead, I let her pull me in - all soft smiles hiding sharp teeth. She knows things about me no one should know. She calls it love. I call it haunting. Everywhere I go, she's already been. Every choice I make, she's already planned. And when I try to leave, she only laughs and asks why I'd ever want a world without her in it. She's not ruining my life. She's replacing it - piece by piece, heartbeat by heartbeat. She says she kills for a reason - that every drop of blood is a prayer for the forgotten. I should be terrified of her. I am terrified of her. But when she looks at me like I'm the only soft thing left in a world full of monsters-like she sees a masterpiece instead of exhaustion-I forget to breathe. I forget to run. Her love is not gentle. It's sharp and suffocating, stitched together with unspoken scars she'd never outrun. And now it's wrapping itself around my bones, whispering that I'm the reason she's still alive - and the reason she'll never stop. They say obsession destroys. But she's not trying to ruin me. She's trying to remake me. And the worst part? Somewhere deep inside, I think I want her to.
He's My Mate
CAUTION CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT. "Say it, Allison," he said, his voice low as he trapped me against the rough wall. A shiver ran down my spine, his voice pulling at me, the power in it making me want to do anything he asked. I shook my head, afraid my voice might betray me. His teeth lightly grazed my neck causing a sigh to get past my lips. I could feel him smile against my skin. He knew he was going to get what he wanted one way or another. I tried to slip away, but he grabbed my wrists, pinning them down tightly. He pressed his hard body against me. I was aware of every inch of him that was touching me. "Don't think you can just leave. We're not done yet." My stomach tightened at his words, the desire inside burning for him. My damn body at war with my mind yet again. He slid his hand up to the edge of my shorts, slowly working it's way up as his mouth trailed small nips from my neck to my collar bone and lower, stopping only when he reached the fabric. I could feel my resolve weakening as his hand reached its destination. "Say it," he demanded. I moaned, my head tipping back as he moved expertly. I wanted to say it then, I really did.

The Guy I Could Never Have
Some people arrive quietly. No fireworks. No background music. Just a look. A name. A violet shirt in a white room. You don't realize it's the start. Not until you're too far in. I didn't fall for him the way stories say you should. There was no moment of knowing. Just a slow ache that built between library tables and half-finished coffee cups. The kind of love that feels like a question no one teaches you how to ask. We were never official. Never obvious. We were playlists. Eye contact. A sentence that almost sounded like confession-until it didn't. And somewhere in that space between almost and never, I became someone I didn't recognize. Someone quieter. Smaller. And then... someone who walked away. This is not a story about the guy I ended up with. This is about the one I couldn't have. The one who arrived too late. The one who taught me that not all love stories need a happy ending- Some just need a girl who finally chooses herself. And this time, I did.Complete
Alpha Ethan
Excerpt only: I quickly run in their direction as my claws elongate into fierce points. I watch as a man in all black strikes down and kills one of the innocent packless men before turning to another. I make a flying leap to attack and am suddenly hit with a strong, overwhelming scent of vanilla and citrus. "Mate!" My wolf yells in my head. My conviction evaporates and confusion hits me, but I don't have time to think about what this means. Before I even have the chance to realize what is happening, the unknown man who had been my target spins to face me. We are mere centimeters apart and pain explodes through my stomach. I look down to find a black hilt sticking out of me and crimson spreading out around it. The man drops his hand from the dagger and I look up to meet his eyes. There are so many emotions swirling through his gorgeous sapphire eyes, confusion, shock, sadness, fear, anger. I don't get the chance to contemplate this as I stumble backwards, my consciousness slipping away from me. And then everything goes black. ---------- Scarlet Denton is a fiery young she-wolf with no family and no pack.
