backburner fiction nikiinspired romance

Love shouldn't feel like waiting in the dark-counting the seconds, the silences, the stolen glances that were never really yours to begin with. But here I am, clinging to borrowed moments and half-meant words, pretending that being the second choice is somehow enough. I keep telling myself I'm strong, that I can handle it, but the truth is-every time he walks away, a part of me does too. And I don't know how much longer I can survive this kind of love... the kind that asks you to stay quiet, stay hidden, and stay patient for something that was never promised.All Rights Reserved

📚shiddat:-ishq aur nafrat ki by she_writes_168

my heart raced with every step he took towards me,i clutched my dress and tried not to make any sound or i will face the consequences. tears left my eyes,i was stucked with him,i hated everyone for doing this to me. "you still have time come out sweetheart."more tears left my eyes as i covered my mouth with my hand. sobs were ready to left but i forced myself to be strong. suddenly a hand clutched my hair and dragged me out from my hiding spot. I knew who it was and was ready. "tsk tsk tsk,i said you,if i will find you then you have to face double consequences but you being stubborn disobeyed me."a sob ripped through me at the thought of the punishment i will receive. #violence #abusive content. . this is pure imagination. This story doesn't support or normalize anything take it as a fiction and don't spam any hate i won't tolerate anything towards my storyline or anything related to the story. if you don't like second chances or story like this,then skip it don't read it.

His Silence, My Storm: Drowning In Hope by manahilalihere

They say love begins in silence. But what happens when the silence lasts too long? This is not a love story about happily ever afters. This is a story about almosts- About late-night conversations that stopped just short of meaning something. About eye contacts that promised more, but always ended in friendship. In Part 1, she loved him quietly. In Part 2, she starts to speak- but still, he doesn't listen the way she hoped. She tries to become his safe place. She tries to heal his fear of attachment. She tries to read his mind, hold his hand without holding it, and love him in a way that feels patient-not desperate. But the more she hopes, the more she drowns. This is the continuation of a one-sided love story that became too heavy to carry. A confession soaked in unsent messages, mixed signals, and a storm of emotions that never found a home. Sometimes, loving someone means letting go. Sometimes, silence is louder than goodbye.

Letting You Go by nabihaayub

Sometimes, love doesn't fade away... it just waits for the right time to return. Two souls who once loved each other but were forced to part ways by a fate that wasn't on their side. Years passed, wounds have healed, hearts have come to terms-or so they thought. When fate brings them back together in a foreign city, long-buried memories begin to resurface. In the silence they once left behind, will they rekindle their love... or let everything go once more, this time for good?

Glimpse of Us by Noir2026

"I've carried her in my thoughts for months, haunted by every touch, every laugh, every moment we weren't supposed to share. She's my best friend. She's my addiction. And she's slowly slipping away. Between stolen glances, late-night confessions, and the ghosts of what could have been, I'm learning one thing: some love doesn't wait for the right time - it waits in the spaces between us, impossible to ignore, impossible to let go."

Meant to be together | 18+ by selenophileshraa

"why the fuck did you go on a date with him? he is not even your type!!" he growls. "so what? he is friendly and nice to me" I replied confidently. "NO, HE IS NOT NICE!!! he wants you because you're....beautiful" he said looking directly in my eyes! "Viaan! stop being so annoying...and let me go! he is waiting for me" I said. As I was about to leave, he held my hands and in a millisecond I was pinned to his car. I was shocked by this action of his. He never behaved like this but today he was in different mood. "What a-are you d-doing?" I said. We were so close that our lips were almost touching and then he bends towards my neck and kiss it. I swear that feeling was so amazing... I loved it but I didn't show it on my face, but then he looked at me with his dark brown eyes, and stared at me for a couple of seconds. "If you didn't leave for home right now! I will kiss the fuck out of you, until you become breathless" he said in his deep voice without breaking the eye contact. Honestly that was hot....but this is not the time for this. "And why are you suddenly so interested in my personal life? Are you jealous of Abhay?" I said without looking at him. "Do not try me! I said go home!!" I sensed that he is angry. "Oh yeah? don't try you? what will you do Mr. Raghuvanshi?" I said in a sarcastic way. To which he smirked. and said "don't ask for something you can't handle baby" What did he just say.....Baby? "I'm not your baby". "Are you sure?" he smirked again. Why the hell he's keep doing that. .........

A Love So Dark by WrittenByWelsh

Some loves are gentle, fleeting... Others consume you, leaving nothing but shadows. "I should walk away," she whispered. "And miss this?" he smirked, stepping closer, his voice low, dangerous. "I don't think you could." She thought she could keep her heart safe-until him. One night, one heated argument, one touch too many... and suddenly, desire and danger were inseparable. In a world where trust is rare and betrayal hides behind every smile, falling for him might cost her everything. But some loves are too dark to resist.

Luring Anya | A Dark Romance ✔️ by Gulabi_stories

I thought he saw me, the real me. Not just the body I tried to hide, or the insecurities I never showed. But the girl beneath it all. So I trusted him. Followed him. Loved him. Now I'm trapped in a house with no exits. No answers. No mercy. He says this is my life now. But the way he looks at me says otherwise. He wants to break me. Remake me. And if I want to survive... I might have to lose myself. 🚫🚫🚫18+🚫🚫🚫 This isn't a love story. Not the sweet kind. It's dark. Twisted. Addictive. The kind where the hero does unforgivable things- and you'll still find yourself wanting him. He's not safe. And neither is what you'll feel. Read at your own risk. You've been lured. 🖤 READ THE DISCLAIMER. THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR EVERYONE

What If I Was Nothing? by FearghalLorcan

They loved hard, fought harder, and broke quietly. Ryan and Hannah were supposed to last - the kind of love that survives slammed doors, sleepless nights, and promises said in the dark. But love, as they learned, doesn't always fade in one clean motion. Sometimes it unravels, thread by thread, until you wake up beside someone you no longer recognize. After years of trying to fix what was already gone, Hannah walked away. Ryan stayed - until the silence between them became too heavy to bear. Years later, Ryan has rebuilt his world. A new home. A wife who makes him laugh. A baby boy who carries his smile. He's finally found peace in the wreckage. But when Hannah reappears one morning, holding all the words she never said, both are forced to face the truth: love doesn't die - it changes. And sometimes, the hardest part isn't losing each other. It's learning to live with what remains.
