Born into a world of pain and betrayal, Winnie never knew love-only survival. Abandoned by a father who never cared, tormented by a stepmother who sold her innocence for profit, and forced into a life she never chose, she learned that mercy was a luxury she could never afford.
When her only family-her beloved brother-is ripped from her, Winnie is left with nothing but the scars of her past and the fire of revenge burning in her soul. She refuses to be another victim, refuses to be just another forgotten girl. With the help of Carter, a man with his own demons, and Michael, a protector forged in blood, she fights back.
But Damien-the monster who ruled the shadows of her life-won't let go so easily. He built his empire on broken lives, and he won't fall without a war. As Winnie uncovers the secrets that could destroy him, she must decide: will she run, or will she burn everything down with him?
"whispers of the forgotten" is a harrowing tale of survival, revenge, and the power of resilience. In a world where monsters wear human faces, Winnie must break free from the past-or be consumed by it.
Will she rise, or will the darkness finally claim her?

Veilborn
In a world where loyalty is currency and silence is survival, Zoe struggles quietly to stay afloat. Beneath her gentle smiles and whispered apologies is a girl fighting not to disappear. She feels like a ghost in her own life-caught between who she's supposed to be and the nagging sense that something is deeply wrong. Whispers swirl through the city streets. Secrets hide around every corner. The people around her play games she doesn't fully understand-yet she's closer to them than she knows. Seventeen, maybe eighteen. Old enough to survive alone, young enough to feel the weight pressing her down. Most days, she drags herself through the motions: clock in. Get scolded. Scrape together rent. Repeat. Hope is scarce. Trust scarcer. Yet beneath her guarded silence, she still dreams. What keeps her going? A memory, faint but burning-her mother, who saw light where no one else did. Maybe it's spite. Maybe it's the aching need to break free from a cycle that's gnawed at her for as long as she can remember. Her world is messy, tangled with politics and secrets of powerful families-some connections she doesn't even realize yet. Some people are kind. Some are cruel. Some... far more than they seem. And Zoe? She's just trying to breathe, carving a sliver of space for herself, one defiant step at a time. Because if she stops, even for a moment... everything she's fought for could slip away. And no one will wait for her to rise again.

YOUNG HITMAN
To the shadows that whisper secrets, to the silence that screams truths, and to the ghosts that walk among us, unseen but always present. This story is for those who have learned to navigate the labyrinth of their own making, where every turn is a gamble and every breath a carefully calculated risk. It's for the ones who have had their innocence stolen, their trust shattered, and their lives irrevocably altered by forces beyond their control. May you find a flicker of recognition in Layla's journey, a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, even when that spirit has been forged in the crucible of betrayal and loss. To my mother, who taught me that the greatest strength can be found in the darkest of places, and that survival often demands a ruthlessness we never imagined we possessed. And to the memory of those we've lost, whose absence leaves an indelible mark, shaping us in ways we may never fully comprehend, yet which become the very fabric of who we are. This is for you, for the echoes you leave behind, and for the silent battles waged in the quiet corners of our lives. May this narrative serve as a somber reminder of the invisible scars we carry, the weight of unspoken words, and the enduring power of a will to survive, no matter the cost. Your stories, though often unseen, are the foundations upon which resilience is built.
