He doesn't speak.
Not because he won't-
But because he can't.
Elias Vale is a mute billionaire CEO with a silence that echoes louder than any voice. He runs a graphic design empire with cold precision... and never lets anyone close enough to ask why.
Until Loria.
A quiet artist hired to create pieces for a Cartier campaign, Loria Haven never expected to be drawn to a man who's never said a word to her. But when his silence starts to feel like a language of its own-one she begins to understand-she realizes some stories are told not in words, but in presence.
As her art begins to uncover more than what's on the surface, she'll face secrets, scars, and a love that doesn't need sound to speak.

Burning Beneath The Silence
She was just looking for a job. A quiet desk, a steady paycheck, and a life untouched by chaos. But fate had other plans. He was ice - powerful, unreadable, and alone.

What started as stolen glances and stubborn hearts turned into something deeper- A love neither of them asked for... But one that might just consume them both. In the cold halls of Khan Enterprises, love wasn't supposed to bloom. But it did-silently, fiercely, and forever. ---
Kept.......(#1 of the Love series)
He wasn't offering kindness. He just didn't shut the door. I said I could cook. I lied. I said I wasn't a thief. I lied again. But for some reason, he let me stay. And that's when everything started to hurt less. Kai doesn't trust people. He trusts what they leave unguarded. Living on the streets has made him quick with his hands and quicker with lies. When he spots Elias - calm, unreadable, alone - he sees an easy mark. But Elias doesn't react the way he should. He doesn't panic. He doesn't question. He offers Kai a place to stay. No strings. No rules. No locked doors. Kai tells himself it's temporary. He tells himself it's survival. He doesn't expect to feel safe. He doesn't expect to start wanting to stay. And he definitely doesn't expect that staying will bring everything he ran from crashing back into his life.
Somewhere Between Goodbye and Forever
What if the greatest love of your life was someone you never met? Elias Wira sits alone in a quiet café on the anniversary of something he can't quite name. Across timelines and memories that feel more like dreams, he is haunted by the sense that he missed something-or someone-important. In another corner of the city, Aria searches for answers to strange phenomena called "emotional echoes"-fragments of lives never lived, loves never begun, yet deeply felt. When a series of near-encounters and impossible feelings draw them together, Elias and Aria find themselves unraveling a story that defies time, memory, and fate. But some choices echo louder than others. And some moments-no matter how fleeting-can change everything. Somewhere Between Goodbye and Forever is a quietly haunting exploration of regret, alternate timelines, and the courage to love, even when nothing is certain. For readers who believe that even missed chances can leave a mark on the soul.Complete
Between the Lines
What if the person you fear the most... is also the one who understands you best? Elowen Mireille never planned to work under Elias Vireaux-the cold, calculating CEO known for his explosive temper and unreachable standards. But when she's assigned as his personal assistant, she discovers something beneath the surface of his power and control: a man unraveling in silence. Elias doesn't trust easily. In a world where weakness is exploited and loyalty is rare, he's spent years behind walls made of steel and pride. But Elowen? She sees through him. She calms his storms with quiet words, soft eyes, and a strength that rivals his own. As tension turns into trust, and loyalty slips into something deeper, both must face the question neither of them are ready to answer: Can love truly bloom between the lines of duty and desire? Or will the secrets they keep-and the enemies that rise-tear them apart before either can admit what they feel? A slow-burn romance filled with intense chemistry, emotional healing, and dangerously forbidden connection, Between the Lines is a story of two guarded souls discovering that sometimes... the most powerful things are the ones left unspoken.
When No One's Watching
He draws constellations on his sneakers and disappears in a crowd like he was never there. The other lights up every room he walks into-too loud, too much, and somehow still lonely. One hides behind silence. The other behind a smile. And when their worlds finally collide, it's not fireworks- It's quiet. Slow. A little bit painful. At a school where people only see what they want to, one boy is being hurt in the moments no one's around. And the only one who sees it? Pretends not to-until he can't anymore. A slow-burn love story about unspoken things, hallway bruises, unshared lunches, and the terrifying softness of being seen.

While the characters and events are mostly fictional, some emotional experiences were drawn from things I've seen or felt in passing.

Ocean Orbs

Bleeding petals: No Petals Left Unstained [Yandere CEO]
"You can pluck my petals, but you'll never silence the storm growing in my roots." A single question at a press conference made her famous overnight. But fame comes with shadows. With roses delivered to her door, dripping with blood. With eyes following her in the dark. With notes she never remembers leaving behind. Leona Hart thought she was just another ambitious journalist - chasing headlines, climbing ladders, and asking the kinds of bold questions no one else dared to ask. Until she caught his attention. Adrian Vale: the elusive billionaire CEO, ruthless enough to silence his rivals, powerful enough to bury his secrets, and obsessed enough to watch her every move.
Silence And Honey
Silence and Honey I talked enough for both of us. He listened like he might never let go. Runerth Castellion was the boy with the sharpest eyes and the quietest heart. He didn't talk much-didn't smile much either. But he always showed up. For me. I had known him since we were twelve. Since I decided I was going to be his friend, whether he wanted one or not. I was the chatterbox play school teacher who sings songs about dinosaurs and glue sticks. He was the grumpy heir to a mafia empire no one talks about out loud and a CEO of a heritage company. We were never meant to fit but we did and we did not at the same time. All that until the fate tested us. Tested me. In a world where healing feels impossible, our bond became a refuge, a promise that no matter how dark the night, dawn was waiting. This is a story about the strength found in vulnerability, the power of a patient heart, and the beautiful, messy journey toward a love that saves.
