When Riley moves into an old apartment near campus, all she wants is peace-a fresh start far away from the noise of her past. But the silence inside these walls is far from empty.

Something lingers in the corners.
Something that watches her sleep.

As the days pass, strange things begin to happen-curtains move without wind, music plays without a source, and shadows brush against her skin like whispers from another world.

Then she hears his voice.

Luca is not among the living. But he's the first one to truly see her.

In a place where the veil between worlds thins, love, loss, and truth intertwine.

How do you let go of someone who's already gone?

Shadows Between Us is a paranormal slow-burn romance wrapped in mystery, longing, and the kind of connection that even death can't break.All Rights Reserved

Ashes Between Us by Horiiiiiiiiii

In the sleepless heart of Makati, a quiet café-bookshop stands tucked away from the chaos of the city. Behind its counter is Caius Garcia, a man of few words whose stillness feels like a refuge of its own. His life is simple, measured, and hidden from the rush of the world. One stormy night, Lila De Guzman steps into his café. Mischievous yet calm, kind yet guarded, she is a woman shaped by absence-neglected in her childhood, she has learned to laugh away the weight of her silence. In Caius's quiet presence, she discovers an anchor she never expected. Together, they carve out a small universe in the middle of the city-late-night coffee, conversations over old books, fleeting moments that turn ordinary days into something unforgettable. But love is never as simple as it seems. As their bond deepens, shadows from the past begin to resurface, testing the strength of what they've built. Set against the restless streets of Manila, Ashes Between Us is a tender, bittersweet love story about two souls who find each other in the most unexpected of places-and the silence that lingers long after. Note: This series has 300 to 600 words per chapter

But on the first day of class, the past walks in wearing a blazer and heels. Dr. Sienna Ward. Her high school teacher. Her secret first love. And now-her professor. Years have passed, but the connection between them is impossible to ignore. What begins as cautious small talk becomes something deeper, something dangerous.

Cold, cynical, and painfully hot, Oliver has no interest in love-and Kiara isn't looking for it either. But when he finds out the truth about her past, everything changes. Secrets slip. Lines blur. And soon, they're playing a game neither of them can win. She tempts him to break every rule. He makes her want something she swore she'd never need. This was supposed to be just sex.

As Selena's quiet world begins to unravel, she finds herself drawn into a life she never knew existed-a life full of secrets, danger, and a bond that neither she nor Elijah can escape.
