True love is friendship dipped in honey. Only for Nalani, honey has proven to be a hurtful cover for stinging sharp glasses she's had to swallow.
In Dauntless, she has learned how to survive pain, how to stay standing, how to keep her past locked behind trained silence. She has learned how not to look back.
But some faces refuse to stay buried.
When someone she never truly escaped reappears in her life, old wounds reopen-and with them, everything she thought she had outgrown. Memories. Anger. Desire. Guilt. A connection that was never meant to survive what happened between them.
And then there is someone new.
Someone steady. Someone safe. Someone who does not look at her like a battlefield.
Caught between what once destroyed her and what might finally save her, Nalani is forced to face the one thing Dauntless never taught her how to fight:
her own heart.
Because some love stories don't begin with hope.
They begin with damage.
Tobias Eaton × Nalani × Eric Coulter

Ordinary Acts of Bravery [A Divergent Fanfic]
Octavia transfers to Dauntless and immediately draws the attention of the last man she should ever want: Eric Coulter. He looks at her-and sees a ghost. Someone he lost. Someone he failed. What begins as hostility sharpens into obsession, then into something far more dangerous as initiation brutalizes them both and the city edges toward war. The longer he watches her, the clearer it becomes- She isn't the ghost. And he is not the man he was before it. She came to Dauntless to find where she belongs. Instead, she finds him-and a love built in the space between violence, grief, and everything neither of them knows how to name. It is not safe. It is not easy. It is tested-by fear, by secrets, by choices neither of them can take back. By the truth that loving each other may be the most dangerous thing either of them does. When the city fractures, they are pulled apart-by duty, by survival, by the decisions meant to protect each other. Octavia rises. Eric breaks. And as the world collapses, they are left standing in the wreckage- still choosing each other anyway.Complete

✔The Broken Amity [Eric Coulter Fanfic] (COMPLETE)
COMPLETED (EDIT: In the process of being rewritten! Some of the writing might have you cringing! New chapters will be uploaded once they're all edited and written!) Meet Olivia, she's from Amity. You may think that everyone is Amity is just the happiest people in the world, right? Well, you're wrong. Not everyone at least. When Olivia transfers to Dauntless, where her sister transferred, no one could really figure out why. But will her past from Amity follow her? Haunt her, even? What about a certain Dauntless leader that seems to like her? "Training is over for today, everyone out!" Eric roars and as I'm about to walk through the door, I hear his cold voice yet again, "Not you Via, you stay," The others flood out and I stay planted near the door, he slowly stalks towards me and I find myself walking backward until I've hit the door behind me, I slightly jump from shock and let out yet another shaky sigh, he puts both of his arms beside my head, easily towering over me. "I'm going to break you," he starts, speaking darkly as he looks directly into my eyes, "I'm not sure how, but I will, and I'm going too," "You can't break something that's already been broken by someone else," I whisper, barely audible but I know he hears it. "Who could have possibly broken you? You lived in Amity, Baby doll," he snarls, and I push him out of the way with my shoulder. I walked out of there. (As of 3/28/2019) #1 in Divergent-12.7 stories. (Best) (THIS STORY TALKS ABOUT SOME MATURE THINGS THAT MAY TRIGGER SOME PEOPLE.) I do not own Divergent, I do not own the original Divergent characters, but I do own my characters.

Will people leave her now, when she's most vulnerable? Who will leave and who will stay?
The Journey
Based off the world of Divergent, which I do NOT own. Anything familiar is clearly not mine. Also, most images do not belong to me either. The rest is mine though, so please don't use it without my knowledge. Thank you. Factions now have royal families and the Factional Monarchy System (FMS) runs the world quite peacefully. Divergents are normal and a part of the FMS. Follow the story of Freya, the Princess of Dauntless, as she travels home to Dauntless Proper and in the process falls in love with the rough Eric Coulter. I'm terrible at this description thing. This is one of my very first fanfics. It is complete, but I will upload it a chapter at a time based on interest.Complete
The Leader
When she transferred to Dauntless, she didn't plan to make friends or catch the eyes of a certain blue-eyed leader. Yet here we are. Disclaimer: I do not own any characters or ideas presented, except for the original ones I created. I do not own the rights to the image in the cover. Thank you. :)Complete
From abnegation to dauntless (FATD) || ✓ Completed
A Divergent fanficion In this fanfiction, Tris and Tobias meet in Abnegation. The basic plot of Divergent, Tris transferring to Dauntless and her and Four falling in love are still happening, but in different order and with my own twist to it. Like many fanfics, the war doesn't happen in this, but many twists, dangers and people from the past try to stop Fourtris's happiness. I hope you deside to read this, if you do, thank you <4 I'm currently editing this story, so it will become less cringy with every edited chapter. This story moves quite fast, in the beginning, but it worked for me when I started this story. I do NOT own Divergent, The great 5(Veronica Roth) does. I do own the plot, and some of the characters I add. But otherwise, I don't own the songs, or most of the characters, but some of the pictures I do own, I will tell if I do. Please don't copy my ideas, if you do, ask and give credit.Complete
