Little Light (GxG)
In a world that moves too fast, she's learning to breathe slowly. To feel again. To let someone touch the parts of her she thought were long gone. There are no crowns here. No thrones. Just the quiet war of learning how to be held without flinching. She doesn't beg for safety. She creates it in silence. And when she kneels, it's not for weakness- it's because she trusts. But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence. This isn't where the pain begins. It's where it learns to rest. ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ : EMOTIONAL INTIMACY SUBSPACE SLOW-BURN HEALING TRIGGERING THEMES (VULNERABILITY, TRUST, PAST TRAUMA) 🔴 Tops: 🔴 1.

Unwritten
Dr. Danielle Stevens doesn't do vulnerability. At twenty-nine, she's earned her place at the front of the lecture hall-sharp, composed, and untouchable. Her past is buried under layers of dark clothes, academic acclaim, and the rules she never dares to break. Until Alexandria Johnson walks into her classroom. Alex is everything Danielle tries to avoid-fiery, unpredictable, and disarmingly perceptive. At twenty-four, she's a graduate student with a tragic past, a fearless voice, and a habit of challenging authority. Including hers. What begins as subtle tension-glances held too long, words layered with meaning-spirals into something neither of them can ignore. But desire this dangerous comes at a cost. And some stories were never meant to be written. A slow-burn sapphic romance about power, restraint, and the pull of the one person who sees right through you.Complete
