[COMPLETE] RUNTIME CONFESSIONS 
Book 2 of "The Ones Who Were Watched" series

Runtime Confessions isn't your typical Wattpad love story. It doesn't rush. It doesn't scream for attention. It lingers - like a background process you didn't notice at first... until it crashes everything.

Kara and Javi aren't perfect. It started as a one night stand. They break rules. They patch over pain. They log in, log out, and pretend it's all just code.

This isn't a story about falling fast. It's about rebuilding trust line by line after the system fails. About loving in silence because emotions are firewalls. And learning that sometimes, the bravest thing you can do... is stay - even when your source code is full of bugs.

Runtime Confessions subverts the tropes:
No love triangles. No fantasy. No insta-romance. Just slow-burn longing, grief wrapped in sarcasm, and two people trying to out-code heartbreak.

This isn't about being saved. It's about choosing to stay even after everything crashes.

A slow-burn emotional suspense set in a post-PANOPTICON world. For fans of nerdy metaphors, glitchy love stories, and the danger of feeling too much.All Rights Reserved

Caught in Between (Chaos #1) by aciarchvs

Ashton Kiel Ejercito is the epitome of a baddy with a heart - tough, resilient, and unapologetically independent. A typical nursing student during the day and bartender by night, Ashton balances her books and bottles to keep her family afloat. She doesn't need to be saved - especially not by some golden boy. Javier Alas "Javi" Valdez - the top student of the nursing department, wealthy, charming, and annoyingly carefree. They shared the same university halls for years, but fate never let their worlds collide... until one night at the bar Ashton's worked at. One wrong move. One accident. One choice that cost her the job she relied on. She swore never to see him again. But the universe knows better. Now, Ashton finds herself reluctantly working as Javi's personal assistant - or more accurately, his "bantay," hired by his mother to keep him grounded. What starts as a forced partnership turns into a slow unraveling of secrets, sparks, and something neither of them saw coming. Can two people from different worlds learn to coexist - or worse, fall for each other?

Old Feelings by Rapunzelyza

"We missed our chance once--because the timing was wrong. Now that he's ready, I'm the one running out of time. How do you choose love... when you know how it ends?" --- Luna Pharis was once rejected by the guy named Leonardo Damien. His reason? He feared he would only hurt her in the end, burdened by his emotional unavailability. As a way to soften the goodbye, he told her: "If we're meant to be, we will be." Years later, Luna finally fulfills her dream of becoming a published author. But just as she's tasting success, life hits her with devastating news: she has cancer. Still, she's determined to live her days fully. Then, the unexpected happen--Leonardo returns, free and seemingly ready. His presence reminds her of the words he left behind, and suddenly the past doesn't feel so far away. Now, Luna is torn. Should she push him away to spare him future pain? Or will she allow herself the one thing she's secretly wished for all these years--a second chance with him, even if time isn't on her side? DATE STARTED: May 6, 2025 ENDED: ---

Calibrated Distance by shechoseherself

[COMPLETE] CALIBRATED DISTANCE Book 1 of "The Ones Who Were Watched" series Calibrated Distance isn't a love story dressed up as dystopia. It's a surveillance log of the unseen. A memory file buried in silence. A slow, aching trace of what it means to be watched... and still choose to feel. Mira and Gael aren't chasing fate. They're carrying ghosts. They glitch through memory, speak in half-truths, and love like it's a crime - quiet, calculated, and devastatingly human. This isn't about enemies-to-lovers. There are no cliché rescues. No loud confessions or perfect endings. Just two people tethered by the data that tried to erase them... and the one decision that rewrote their future: To remember. Calibrated Distance rewires the trope: No hero. No happily-ever-after. Just resilience in the face of erasure. Grief that doesn't ask for permission. And love that survives even the worst kind of surveillance - the one we do to ourselves. This isn't about being seen. It's about seeing yourself again - after the system said you shouldn't exist.
