"Jacob, you have to think long term," his mother had said again. "A wife is more than just a companion. She represents your family, and the choices you make now will affect our reputation for years to come." (Elise)

As Maria secures a scholarship to a prestigious boarding school, she hopes to escape her troubled home life, only to find herself confronting insecurities and emotional scars that threaten to pull her away from Jacob. Torn apart by circumstance and choice, Maria's journey leads her into a world of darkness, where she becomes ensnared in a life of pain and humiliation. Meanwhile, Jacob grapples with his family's mounting pressure and his own conflicted feelings, struggling to reconcile his love for Maria with the harsh realities of their lives.

Jacob's heart clenched at her words, but he forced himself to remain still, to hold onto his anger, even as it threatened to consume him. "Don't bother," he replied coldly. "We were nothing. Just a mistake."

Years later, fate intervenes as they cross paths again, but this time, Jacob's heart has hardened, twisted by anger and betrayal. He seeks revenge, subjecting Maria to the very humiliation she fought to escape. With each encounter, the weight of their shared history hangs heavily in the air, as both characters are forced to confront their choices, their love, and the haunting question of whether redemption is possible.

"Jacob!" she spat, stepping forward, fists clenched at her sides. "You think you can just walk back into my life, buy me like I'm some kind of object, and I'll just-what? Smile and thank you?" (Maria)

Bound by shadows is a poignant exploration of love, sacrifice, and the scars that linger long after the choices are made. It delves into the complexities of relationships, the struggle for self-worth, and the enduring hope for a brighter future, even in the face of overwhelming darkness.

Trapped In My Amnesia von lizzzz92
35 Kapitel Abgeschlossene Geschichte
"Sweetheart wake up. You're at the hospital." I looked up and saw the same woman hovering over me. "Oh...okay." I opened my eyes fully and noticed that I was already in the hospital bed. Why on earth did she have to wake me? "So why am I here?" I asked confused. "Well," she said pulling a short and skinny woman into the room. "This very sweet lady saw you on the side of the road and called 9-1-1." I looked up at her and she threw me an evil look. In a way, she seemed strongly familiar. I looked away slowly diving my eyes back into the direction of the nurse. "Before we leave you, I just wanted to let you know that my name is Julia. You can call me whatever works best for you. Julia, Nurse, Nurse Julia. Whatever. I'll be right back with your papers." Sixteen-year-old Abigail Moore, also referred to as Ginger by her boyfriend Cameron Wood, has lived a terrible sixteen years.

Abigail and her aunt get along very well, and she grows up safe and in no harm.

Love is strange. It exists in many forms and is one of the key components that makes humans happy, but there isn't a lot of understanding surrounding it. At least not the kind of understanding with which the average person identifies. Agnes is one of the few people that can accept all kinds of love. Despite her dated name, she is a woman in her late 20's dealing with the death of most of her family. She's now stuck in the middle of figuring out how to raise children that she never saw in her future and deciding what love means for her, when it has to exist within layer upon layer of complication. She let go of her boyfriend after almost a decade because their love wasn't meant to exist under the strain of children, only to find herself confronted with the overpowering connection of her old high school sweetheart. The same man she ran away from because their values hardly aligned when it came to how love should be expressed long term. Within the midst of learning how to raise children and balance her ever-building career, Agnes tries to recover from her mother's death, seek comfort without complicating her circumstance, and figure out why her mother would name her Agnes. Finding real comfort starts to feel impossible, as her most available options are her ex-boyfriend and her assistant. Completed! Rejected 6 times** "This one just isn't for us." By far the most plain rejection I have ever received and I can respect it. 1/22/2022 - 1K 9/28/2022 - 10K

Check this out and let me know your opinions about this, your votes and comments will be highly appreciated. ~~~~~ Her lips curled, hot and fierce a drop of tear rolled down her red cheeks. "Who are you, huh?! A best friend?! Or what?!" Her words felt like flashes of my own words that I had said before. I gulped down hard. Did she just say that?! No. I would've heard it wrong?! The tension float over my blood, stretches each of my nerves strongly, but I didn't flinch because it hit against me too weak in contrast to her words. Months of distance made me....no one? Huh?! "Ofcourse. I- I am~" My insides weakened. I couldn't gather enough energy to throw the word out. "I- I stand as no one for you. But...hm, but I thought atleast we could be honest with each other?!" I said. "O" She nodded and held her breathe. "Alright! If you want me to be honest, then listen. Stop hitting on every chance you get, Jacob!" Another drop of tear escaped her eyes, hot and convulsed with anger. She suppressed her sobs down and shuddered vigorously. "Jus- just stop making me feel that way." I stood there...that felt like recalling last night, where she walks out of it so smoothly once again. How? My eyes fills in with glassy layer of tears. Although it was just a drop of water with trapped hurricanes of my feelings within it. My fingers curled tight into a fist, as if it was trying to hold onto whatever she'd say. Do I make her feel taken advantage of?
