He knew everything about her-her favorite chocolate, the way she hides her sadness with sarcasm, the way her hands tremble when she's about to cry. But he never gave her what mattered most. Not the love. Not the chocolate. Not the truth.
In this slow-burn emotional romance, Temi navigates unspoken feelings, almost-relationships, and the heartbreak of waiting too long for someone who won't show up. Until one day, she stops waiting-and someone else notices the girl who always gave love in silence.
Bittersweet. Healing. Honest.
This is for every woman who ever loved in the in-between.

What happens when two people who once knew each other best forget-and fall in love all over again?Complete
HIDDEN AFFECTION (Paused)
A new story begins... and this time, it's not just about love it's about everything that love hides. Hidden Affection. A tale where emotions run deep even when they're buried beneath anger, silence, and duty. She's fierce, free spirited, and unpredictable a 24 year old with a heart full of spark, rebellion, and unapologetic dreams. He's mature, composed, and everything she swore she'd never fall for a 28 year old man bound by rules, reputation, and silence. They're nothing alike. She's chaos. He's calm. She questions everything. He follows structure. But sometimes, it's the opposites that burn the brightest when they collide. When their worlds crash into each other, sparks fly but not the pretty kind. It's messy. It's intense. And beneath all that chaos... something begins to grow something they both try to deny. A journey that starts with misunderstandings, cold stares, and unexpected encounters... A story where hatred slowly softens into something unspoken. Where boundaries blur. And hearts, unknowingly, begin to lean in. Tropes you'll find in this story: • Arranged Marriage • Professor x Student • Chaotic Couple • Slow Burn Romance • Opposite attracts This is not your typical romance. It's about stolen glances, denial, unsaid feelings, broken rules and hidden care and the slow unfolding of affection that was never supposed to happen.

The Edge Of Forgiveness [Season 1]
"Even the stars forget to shine sometimes..." They didn't expect to become close. He had his own past. She had hers. Living under one roof with familiar faces and old connections, things were supposed to be simple-but feelings got involved. Slowly, gently, and without warning. This is a story about unexpected bonds, slow trust, quiet comfort, and the kind of relationship that grows with time. There's teasing, arguments, healing, and a whole lot of moments that mean more than they seem. Sometimes love doesn't start with grand gestures. Sometimes, it begins when someone just... Stays.Complete

The Slowest Kind of Love 1: Flirt First, Fall later [EmiBonnie]
Flirt, tease, repeat... until they fall. A sapphic slowburn where a shameless flirt meets her match who have a guarded heart. And one kiss that flips their whole world around. Bonnie is bold, flirty, and allergic to subtlety. Emi is calm, composed, and way too good at pretending she doesn't care. Years after a long-buried university crush, they end up working together. What starts as harmless teasing turns into late nights, stolen glances, and one kiss that changes everything. Now neither of them can tell if they're falling apart or falling in love. The first arc in my The Slowest Kind of Love series. The stories are set in the same universe, all about sapphic slowburns, missed chances, and falling in love when you least expect it. 📌✦ Author's Rights Notice ✦ This story is an original work.
