Alex thought she knew pain, but life always seemed to find new ways to prove her wrong. From the cruel hands of those who should have cared for her, to the shadows of a world too indifferent to notice her cries, Alex falls deeper into a pit of despair-until even her will to survive begins to erode.
But when she's pulled from the darkness, the damage is done. She's alive, but a ghost of who she once was. Now in the sterile halls of recovery, surrounded by people trying to save a girl who doesn't want to be saved, Alex faces a haunting question: Can someone rebuild their soul when all they've known is pain?

The Caretaker He Bought
"You're not here to fall in love." "Trust me, sir... I don't even know what that means." She was sold like a possession-traded away by the very people who were supposed to protect her. At just seventeen, she finds herself in a cold, unfamiliar mansion owned by a powerful man known for his silence, strict rules, and a heartbreak he never talks about. His only condition? Take care of his one-year-old daughter. Don't speak unless spoken to. Don't enter his study. Never touch him. For her, following orders is nothing new. Obedience has kept her alive this long. But the baby's soft cries break something inside her, and her tender touch begins to warm a house that forgot what love felt like. He tells himself she's just a caretaker. Just a temporary solution. But night after night, she shatters rule after rule... And soon, his heart becomes the final one to break. 🎯 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐞 Genre: Romance / Drama / Slow Burn / Hurt-Comfort Age rating: 16+ (emotional abuse themes, mature emotional content)

Perish
They were split apart as children. Reunited by force. Bound by secrets no one dares to name. At seven, Elisha was dropped into the foster care system, cold beds, colder hands, cut off from her twin sister and older brothers without explanation. Aurora stayed behind, raised by a mother who sold her body and a stepfather who promised to come back and never did. Eight years pass. The brothers return, dragging both girls into a home that barely feels like theirs. But this isn't a reunion, it's a collision. Elisha hides her trauma behind silence and sharpened edges, a hidden fire in her. Aurora masks hers with perfection, hunger, and a constant need to be chosen. Neither of them talks about the past. Neither of them knows how. Love simmers in forbidden places. Truths unravel in dangerous ways. And while the family tries to rebuild, they do so blindly, each of them hiding pieces of the story that might save the others, or destroy them. This isn't about healing. It's about surviving what no one else sees and what happens when survival isn't enough. Until everyone perishes. *Includes a good amount of smut.

It's in your eyes
Alex has spent years chasing lust but never finding release. Every touch is empty. Every man, just another distraction from the scars buried beneath her skin. Then V returns-sinfully handsome, exuding dominance, and with a mouth that promises ruin. He doesn't ask. He takes. And for the first time, Alex doesn't want to run. With him, desire is a storm-blinding, relentless, raw. Each orgasm strips away her defenses. Each demand makes her crave more. He's the only man who's ever made her feel alive... and the one who could destroy her completely. Because the man who teaches you how to live will also be the one to own you-heart, body, and soul. ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of child abuse, sexual assault, grooming, domestic violence, and suicidal thoughts.
