Strings Of Fate
Elia Santiago believes in simple things. Warm coffee in the morning, Sunday Mass every week, and writing stories about people who are often ignored. She's an accountancy student and a school journalist who lives a quiet life. She has small dreams, clear goals, and finds comfort sitting under stained-glass windows every Sunday. Chaos was never part of her plan, until she met him. Aiden Reyes is the opposite of quiet. He doesn't talk much, but his presence alone feels loud. An engineering student known for his sharp mind, his skill in archery, and the walls he keeps around himself. He has a close group of friends who bring trouble wherever they go, and no one really tries to get past his cold exterior. No one, until Elia. With her notebook, gentle smile, and habit of noticing little things, Elia slowly steps into Aiden's world. What starts as small and accidental meetings turns into something deeper. Coffee breaks, short walks, and moments that feel more important than they should. As Elia begins to understand the silence Aiden carries, Aiden starts to realize that being seen might not be so scary after all. But with rumors, expectations, and personal struggles quietly waiting in the background, one question remains. Can two people from very different worlds walk the same path, or are they only meant to pass by each other? Written by Lunxielle Date Started: May 12, 2025 Date Ended: July 6, 2025Complete

[COMPLETED] Noah Kim, a second-year engineering student, has little time for distractions. His world is filled with late-night study sessions, caffeine-fueled deadlines, and the constant pressure of excelling in his rigorous program. But everything changes when he stumbles-literally-into The Roasted Haven, a cozy coffee shop near his university, and meets its enigmatic owner, Elias Carter. Elias, a 30-year-old former corporate worker turned café owner, is everything Noah isn't-calm, composed, and hiding a mysterious past behind his charming smirk. Drawn into Elias's world of rich espresso, rainy evenings, and stolen glances, Noah finds himself coming back to the café for reasons beyond coffee. As their flirtation deepens into a passionate affair, Noah struggles with his growing emotions and the looming question of what Elias is hiding. When secrets from Elias's past threaten to tear them apart, Noah must decide-will he walk away, or will he risk everything for the man who has become his greatest temptation? ---------------------- Excerpt: Noah didn't know how he ended up in Elias's apartment above the café, but the heat between them was undeniable. The scent of roasted coffee lingered in the air, mixing with the musk of Elias's cologne as he pressed Noah against the wooden counter. "You keep coming back," Elias murmured, his fingers tracing Noah's jaw. Noah swallowed, his heart hammering. "Maybe I like the coffee." Elias chuckled, his breath warm against Noah's lips. "Liar." And then their mouths crashed together-hot, needy, desperate. Noah gasped as Elias's hands slid under his hoodie, fingertips skimming the bare skin beneath. Every nerve in his body ignited as Elias lifted him onto the counter, positioning himself between Noah's legs. "Tell me what you want," Elias whispered, voice low and teasing. Noah shivered. "You." Elias smirked. "Then hold on tight, baby."Complete
You're Like Heaven to Touch
"You don't really like to open up, do you?" The words startle me, seemingly jagged and impure in contrast to the light and beautiful atmosphere we were in. "I didn't say that." Asher snorted, "You didn't have to." I was quiet for a moment, looking out to the beach and resting my cheek on my knee. "It- It's not that I don't like to," I struggled to find the words good enough to explain. "I just think, maybe, I don't know how to anymore." Asher stares at me for a moment, eyes filled with an emotion that I can't put my finger on. I turn to face him properly, almost gasping when he appears much closer than I remembered. Before I can turn the moment into a joke, he speaks. "Well, if you ever want to learn again, I'll always be right here, Willa. I'm always right here." * Willa Montgomery didn't expect to be uprooted for her last summer before college, but two weeks in, here she is: Santa Monica, California.
