Scarlett's life has been anything but soft. Widowed, raising three boys alone, and still carrying the invisible bruises of past abusive relationships, she's learned to survive on her own terms. Trust is a luxury. Help is a threat. And love? That was buried with her husband.

Then one night, she finds an injured stranger in the alley behind the diner - bloodied, dangerous, and devastatingly quiet. She patches him up and sends him on his way, thinking that's the end of it.

It's not.

Because Vladamir Orlov doesn't forget kindness. And once he learns her son has befriended his niece, he's no longer content watching from the shadows.

He's coming for Scarlett - and heaven help anyone who stands in his way.All Rights Reserved

That's all she needs to survive until she turns eighteen and can walk away. But hate is a dangerous thing. It turns into obsession. Into protectiveness. Into something no one expected. Because Serena has secrets - ones even she doesn't fully understand. And in a world where power is everything, she's about to prove she belongs where everyone swore she didn't. She isn't looking for love. She's fighting for something stronger: a place to finally call home.

In the wolf's den by Enidan682

The night carries echoes of things once silenced-whispers she tried to bury, footsteps she thought would never find her again. Yet shadows are patient. They wait. They remember. A name lingers on her lips, unspoken for years, and with it awakens a world she swore to forget. A world where the line between devotion and destruction is perilously thin, where desire feels like a knife pressed gently against the skin. Some memories return as ghosts. Others return as flesh and fire. He is both. The boy she once knew is gone, leaving behind only the wolf-cloaked in power, sharpened by darkness, and bound to her in ways she cannot undo. The deeper she steps into the silence of his den, the more she feels the pull of something ancient, inevitable, merciless. Love, or ruin-perhaps both. Because not all stories are meant to be gentle. And not all hearts survive the places they call home. This story is a work of fiction. All rights reserved.

SHADOWS OF BROTHERHOOD by Jazmin26007

He wasn't the favorite. He wasn't the golden child. But he was the one who bled. When everything around him begins to crumble-family, love, and the secrets of a buried past-Ryan is forced to face a darkness he thought he'd left behind. What happens when the person they never really understood... becomes the only one who can save them? But saving them comes with a price. And some prices leave scars that even time can't heal. A story of sacrifice, forgotten memories, and a boy who was never supposed to be the hero. The boy they misunderstood. The one who laughed the loudest to hide the silence inside. The one who acted tough because no one noticed when he was gentle. The one who was always "too much"-too angry, too lost, too broken to fix. He was the black sheep. The storm in a house that only wanted sunshine. The one they blamed but never truly understood. They didn't know he cried himself to sleep at night. Didn't know he whispered "I'm sorry" to the shadows of parents he lost too young. Didn't know he carried the ache of abandonment in his bones every day. And when he finally found the truth-when he discovered who murdered them- he didn't hesitate. Not once.
