In this dark romantic thriller about betrayal, identity, and weaponized love, Raven must become her own savior in a world where the one who claimed to love her sold her as a fantasy to strangers.

Bruised Hearts (H.S) by hazzalouniallerLiZ
25 parts Ongoing Mature
He broke her. He saved her. He might destroy her. Clara Hale always believed in love the way Austen and Brontë wrote it-beautiful, eternal, worth every storm. But real life isn't a novel, and Josh-the charming boyfriend everyone else envies-hides his temper behind easy smiles and sweet apologies. Bruises fade, but the fear doesn't. When Clara finally thinks she knows who she is and what she deserves, he shows up again. Harry Styles. The boy with haunted eyes. The boy who kissed her once and ruined her carefully built walls. Arrogant, dangerous, magnetic-he's everything Clara swore she'd never want. Yet every time their paths cross, sparks ignite into flames she can't control. Torn between the toxic safety of the boy she's always forgiven and the dangerous pull of the one she can't forget, Clara finds herself caught in a storm of betrayal, obsession, and impossible choices. Harry is broken-scarred by a violent past, drowning his rage in alcohol and fights. But when he looks at Clara, he sees the only light in the chaos. And when he touches her, she feels alive in a way she's never dared admit. Love isn't supposed to hurt. But some hearts aren't just broken-they're bruised. And bruised hearts don't heal quietly. Rated R : Explicit sexual content , Strong language, abuse, trauma, toxic relationships, violence, substance use.

A Love That Shouldn't Exist by TheyCraveeLyric
38 parts Complete Mature
Hematite has always loved Gynger in a way she shouldn't. In a way that burned too deep, too dangerously-something fragile and consuming all at once. But instead of confessing, she settled for friendship, convincing herself that having a piece of Gynger was better than losing her entirely. For years, Gynger danced on the blurred lines between them, touching, teasing, and holding Hematite close but never quite enough. She moved in and out of relationships, never looking at Hematite the way she craved to be seen. Until one drunken night, when Gynger kissed her-and then pretended like it never happened. Everything shattered when a toxic friend exposed Hematite's long-buried feelings, unraveling the delicate balance they had maintained. Gynger pulled away, distancing herself and finding solace in a new relationship-with a man. Hematite was left behind, forced to watch as Gynger found stability in someone else, while she drowned in her own emotions. Caught between her obsession with Gynger and the lingering toxicity of her ex, Sevyn -a street-affiliated man who left her broken more times than she could count-Hematite spirals. Her battle with BPD only makes things more volatile. Love turns into obsession, desire twists into destruction, and the lines between passion and pain blur beyond recognition. As fights to untangle herself from the past, she's forced to face the truth: Some love stories aren't meant to have a happy ending. Some love stories are only meant to ruin you. Themes: • Unrequited love and emotional dependence • Psychological turmoil and obsession • Betrayal, self-destruction, and toxic relationships • Dark, slow-burn romance with high emotional stakes • The pain of watching someone you love move on A deeply emotional and darkly intense story filled with longing, regret, and raw passion. A Love That Shouldn't Exist is an aching, slow-burn tragedy about love that was never meant to be-but that refuses to let go.
