He calls her Queen with a voice that touches places her boyfriend never could. 😩

Nixi knows she's crossing a line-but what do you call it when your best friend holds you like he's afraid to lose you? When his voice calms your storms and his hands linger just a second too long?...🥶😏

She's in a relationship that looks good on paper-but feels like prison.😖
He's everything her boyfriend isn't: grounded, spiritual, slow-burning with the kind of energy that tastes like temptation and sounds like safety.🥺

Their connection was always intense. But now, it's undeniable.
Their touches are "accidental." Their silences are full of things they'll never say.
Their friendship is about to become a fire they can't control.

Some lines aren't meant to be crossed. But what if crossing them sets you free?

A story about spiritual intimacy, forbidden feelings, and the kind of love that whispers before it screams.

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)

"I would've prayed for Them to go easy on you too." He moves and his eyes are on me, eyes where they are brimming with tears, but his soft smile confuses me.

Their mercy on me is you." ______________ While World War II is absorbed in its own devastation, a runaway slave stumbles upon a meadow. He is saved by a curious, lonely spirit and builds an affinity with her; but will he be her only salvation or eternal damnation? Either way, she can't let him go.

"What are you doing in here?" Boom's voice. was low, clipped, but not loud enough to draw attention outside. Smart didn't answer. He stepped closer, then closer, and before Boom could retreat, Smart wrapped his arms around him from behind, slow, careful, but deliberate. Boom went rigid. His breath caught. Smart lowered his head just slightly, lips hovering near Boom's ear. "I just want to talk." Some ghosts don't haunt you. They wait for you to come back. ⚠️ Content Warning: 🔞 The story Contains mature themes, explicit content and references to a complex past.

7 parts Complete Mature
Love doesn't always follow the rules. Sometimes, it finds you in the most unexpected places-on a rooftop, in the rain, or in the quiet moments between heartbeats. This is the story of a love that defied time, age, and society. A love that was as forbidden as it was beautiful. He was 15 when they first met; she was 32, a woman of grace and mystery. Over the years, their connection deepened, a bond that neither could deny. But their love was a secret, hidden in stolen moments and whispered promises. As they navigated the complexities of their lives, they discovered that some flames burn too brightly to be extinguished-even if they must burn in the shadows. This is a tale of passion, longing, and the bittersweet beauty of a love that could never be. It's about the choices we make, the hearts we break, and the memories that stay with us forever. Welcome to a story where love is both the question and the answer."
Before You Replied by darasstories
23 parts Ongoing Mature
Digi's summer plan was simple: work at her family's restaurant, hang out with friends, and stay out of trouble before senior year. Then Beck showed up. She didn't know he existed a month ago, and now - after accidentally texting the wrong number - he was everywhere. On the beach she's claimed as her own. In her parent's restaurant. At family events he had no reason to be at. And every time they cross paths, he managed to pull a little more of her world into his. What started as an accidental encounter turns into late-night conversations, shared secrets, and a connection Digi can't explain - or shake, despite how hard she tries. But Beck has his own past, and the closer they get, the more she realises that some people don't just walk into your life. Sometimes, they crash into it and leave nothing the same. This a story of chance meetings, cultural expectations, healing, and the kind of love they never saw coming - but couldn't walk away from. Hi guys, I hope you fall in love with Before You Replied, as much as I did while writing it. If you're into slow burns, men who are soft for their women, badass ladies, forbidden love, culture clashes, and characters who feel a little like people you know and love - then this one's for you.
