SKINTIGHT (Part 1)
Violet Ferrari is at breaking point. Moving out of home was supposed to fix her problems, not exacerbate them. All the shit she tried to escape, came right along with her - the grief, the guy, the pain. It won't go away. She's spiralling. One misstep, and it's over for her. Rio Valenti has fought his whole life to make it to this point. The start of his professional basketball career is just around the corner. He can't lose focus now, not with his criminal ties hanging over his head. He's on the edge. One misstep, and it's over for him. The rainy college town should have been their safe haven - the wetlands surrounding it a moat separating them from their pasts. The two meet in their freshmen year, with little in common but their social circles. Violet spends her days numb - hiding from the pain in any way she can. Rio runs from his. He's out from dawn to dusk, if not on the court, then scrounging up money for food or finding somewhere to sleep other than his car. What divides them most... is hope. Rio has it. Violet doesn't.Complete

Unspoken truths
Some truths are never meant to be spoken, and some wounds never truly heal. A year after the devastating loss of her parents, Kyra Sakamoto has retreated into a world of smoke and silence, masking her pain behind a rebellious facade. To those around her, she's just a sharp-tongued, distant teenager-but inside, grief rages like an unhealed wound. Her long time friends, Lain Asakura and Renji Nakamura, have always been her sanctuary. Yet as they grow inexplicably closer, Kyra finds herself wrestling not with mere jealousy, but with a deeper, unacknowledged turmoil tied to her past. Their shifting bond intensifies her inner conflict, challenging her to confront emotions she'd long suppressed. In her struggle to numb the ever-present ache, addiction quietly tightens its grip, threatening not only her own well-being but also the fragile connections she cherishes. As old wounds reopen and the distance between them widens, Kyra must ask: how much damage can one soul endure before everything falls apart? Unspoken Truths is a raw, emotionally charged coming-of-age novel that explores the silent echoes of trauma, the heavy cost of unspoken emotions, and the arduous journey toward healing-for ourselves and for those who refuse to let go. ⚠ Content Warning: This story contains themes of addiction, unhealthy attachments, substance abuse, and emotional trauma.
