Almost Touched (txs)
When nineteen-year-old Emilia starts her first year at university, she's determined to leave her past behind and finally prove she belongs somewhere. Architecture was supposed to be her fresh start-a place to disappear into floor plans and future dreams. But then there's her. Professor Sophia Voss. Brilliant. Composed. Distant. Untouchable. Until she isn't. Drawn to each other by something neither of them dares to name, Emilia and Sophia find themselves trapped in a connection that defies logic, rules, and every boundary they swore they'd never cross. What begins in silence soon turns into stolen glances, late-night thoughts, and moments too intimate to forget. But secrets don't stay quiet forever-and the line between right and wrong begins to blur. __________________ A slow-burning, emotional story about forbidden love, identity, and the parts of ourselves we hide-until someone sees them.

Shared Space, Hidden hearts (WlW)
When your new roommate moved in, it was like oil and water-you clashed over everything. You find yourself counting the days until you could move out. But somewhere along the way, the late-night arguments turned into long conversations, and shared silences became oddly comforting. You started to understand each other, and a tentative friendship grew from the ashes of your initial annoyance. Yet, sometimes, you'd catch her glance lingering just a moment too long, or your heartbeat would quicken when she laughed. Friendship? Maybe. But it was starting to feel like something more.
