The Guard and the Caged Soul by killerAnd

"He's locked behind bars, but somehow... he's the one who holds the key to my undoing." Ayla has spent years upholding the law as a prison guard, sworn to duty and justice. She knows the rules-stay detached, never let emotions interfere, and never, ever get too close to an inmate. But that was before Jai. A convicted criminal with a past shrouded in secrets, Jai is more than just another prisoner-he's dangerous, calculated, and devastatingly captivating. From the moment Ayla meets him, she feels it-a pull she can't explain, an attraction she refuses to acknowledge. As forbidden glances turn into stolen moments, Ayla begins to question everything. Is Jai truly the monster the world believes him to be? Or is there more to his story-one that could change her life forever? But when betrayal looms and the lines between duty and desire blur, Ayla is faced with an impossible choice: love or loyalty? And in a world where trust is a weapon and love is a weakness, making the wrong choice could cost her everything. 💔 Dark Romance | Forbidden Love | Slow Burn | Tragic Ending

FLEEING AND FEELING by 1000TalesbyHer

"Between friends, unspoken feelings can feel like a fragile thread pulled taut; one denies its existence while the other hides behind its delicate weave, both yearning for the courage to unravel what lies beneath." Ian and Julian, long-time best friends, find themselves in a complicated situation following a wildly inebriated, somewhat unconventional evening, which disrupts their lives. An awkward situation arises! To complicate matters, Julian poured out his emotions that night, only to later dismiss it as an error. Typical melodrama, wouldn't you say? However, Ian possesses an exceptional memory. While Julian hastily dismisses the incident, Ian's keen recollection paints a different picture. He senses Julian's insincerity and detects a discrepancy. Ian isn't one to evade unresolved issues, preferring to confront them head-on. As they deal with the fallout of their actions, conflicting perspectives, and clashes in temperament, emotions run high. The situation intensifies as they confront their feelings, leading to revelations about family secrets and youthful indiscretions. Layers upon layers of undisclosed information, intertwined with a sprinkle of adolescent recklessness and folly. Fleeing and Feeling is a captivating coming-of-age tale of love, secrets, and the often absurd journey of young adulthood, reminding us that sometimes even the messiest of situations lead to the most honest answers. @Mature.
