In a quiet corner of the past, Mameko finds herself in the care of João, after escaping a life of cruel slavery. He is a kind-hearted sailor whose life at sea has taught him the depths of solitude and the strength of tenderness. Bearing the invisible marks of her own harsh history, Mameko struggles to find her footing in the unfamiliar calm of freedom João offers. Together, they navigate the delicate waters of healing and companionship, seeking solace in each other from the storms they've weathered.

As they learn the rhythms of trust and the language of care, can they forge a future that honors their pasts but is no longer anchored to them?

(Also Author Note: Hi!! Just as a note, this work does take place in the late 1500s, and while I do my absolute best to preserve historical accuracy, I do take artistic liberties at times. Also, as a general warning, this first chapter is a bit rough, as it gives context into her capture and time in slavery. João probably won't show up until Chapter 3 or 4 so just stick with me here. Also I don't speak Portuguese so I apologize for any errors there.)All Rights Reserved

Wings of deceit by Rosalyn_2008

A tale of love not told in the light, but a tale told in the shadows. Of broken chains and bleeding hearts learning how to beat again. Once a slave, always a slave. It didn't matter how much you'd like to deny the fact; it wasn't possible. One couldn't outrun fate and time itself. No one was born free. So why did everyone seek freedom, despite knowing it was unobtainable? The reason was simple: because it hurt to live being chained. Building trust with a person who has known hell itself all their life wasn't bound to be easy or pretty. Hidden beneath the layers can hide the cruelest things. A past a person would want to forever bury. He wore a mask to survive. But what happens when someone sees through it? 'He was supposed to be a savior. Instead, he unearthed every buried scar that I swore no one would ever see.' For a moment he hated having his scars being unveiled. But after a while, he noticed that wasn't the case. ------------ This story explores themes of trauma, emotional healing, and much more sensitive themes. Reader discretion is advised. (If you read all this you can skip the part that says: "Part I: Unearthing buried scars.")

Star Child by SkadiGemini

Ashaki is the lone survivor of a Xenomorph infested mining colony. After sleeping in cryo sleep for several decades, she finds herself bereft of family for comfort. She finds solace in merely traveling the stars, but quickly comes in contact with one of the universe's deadliest hunters. After a fateful encounter, he kidnaps her. Can she escape the clutches of this Yautja or will she never want to leave his side? Dhare is growing accustomed to his new role in the clan. It's what he wanted, having grown tired of his role on the clan council under his sire. Being an Arbitrator for his sire, instead, enables a chance encounter with a human female who he saved seventy years prior. Surprised to find her alive, he is determined to keep her by his side as he traverses the stars hunting criminals. Sooner than later, Ashaki and he discover a shadowy group is after her, stopping at nothing until she's in their custody. Can Dhare allow himself to develop feelings for his human captive or will he be too late? [ Cover art commissioned by me from Cyvorg on Tumblr. Credit for the art goes directly to them.

A Garden of Flowers and Bones [Lloyd Garmadon x Reader] by Blood_On_Marble

[LEGO NINJAGO FAE & FAERIES!AU] At first it doesn't seem like much of a good thing. But in time, it feels like stepping off the path into Fair Folk-infested territory and talking to a stranded Fae (who looks at her as if she's helpless prey) was a good idea. Because she made a friend...! Well, kind of. It's a bit complicated. Listen, he may be constantly attempting to trick her into being dragged off into the woods never to be seen again, but he IS good company.

Migrate to me by ARMY_Stay__Minsung

Preparing to start a new chapter of his life working in the polished elite world of plastic surgery, Doctor Lee Minho is suddenly jerked into the past when a memory he'd long given up on reaches out. Flying to the remote protected island of Aear he hopes to get answers and find closure for wounds left to rot by his best friend's sudden disappearance years ago. Landing on pristine beaches he's thrown into a world he could never have imagined where instead of answers he finds lies, heartbreak, and the cutest cult leader/nurse from hell... oh, and fucking mermaids. - "Please." Wiggling his eyebrows Jisung flashes a teasing grin. "If I wanted to kill you I wouldn't have purposefully missed when I threw the coffee cup." Snorting at his joke Minho wades in up to his calves before coming to a stop. "Like hell you missed. Your aim sucks...." (Jisung is a sassy smart-ass who hates Minho on sight. Minho is stubborn, whipped and wants Jisung...badly) 🙏 If mermaids aren't your thing, I hope you will still give this a try! I was aiming for unique, fun, angsty and lots of Minsung love.
