"They say alcohol numbs the pain, but no one tells you it numbs your soul too."

Noah has always felt empty, like there's a piece of him missing he can't name. Between the silence at home and the fake smiles at school, he finds comfort in the burn of cheap liquor, each bottle promising a few hours of peace before the emptiness returns.

But one night at a dusty bar, he meets Maya, a quiet girl with ink-stained hands and eyes that see through his practiced smiles. She has her own silent battles, but somehow, when she looks at him, Noah feels seen-maybe for the first time in his life.

As his drinking spirals and the darkness inside him grows heavier, Noah must decide: will he let the emptiness swallow him completely, or will he learn to face the pain he's been drowning for so long?

A story of grief, addiction, and the slow, fragile hope of finding light when everything inside feels hollow.All Rights Reserved

When Nina Happened by aruwrites2

Aarav never believed a random Instagram group chat could change his life - until Nina. What began as late-night banter turned into secret conversations, stolen confessions, and a bond neither of them expected. But Nina's world isn't simple. With parents who monitor her every move, a "perfect daughter" mask she's forced to wear, and a secret rebellion of quiet sips and louder dreams, she lives two lives: one the world sees, and one she hides. Aarav becomes the only one who knows both. When fate brings them to the same college, their connection only intensifies. From whispered calls to midnight sneak-ins at his flat, from laughter in crowded classrooms to tears behind locked doors, their love becomes an intoxicating mix of chaos and comfort. They fight, they break, they heal - but above all, they choose each other, again and again. This is not just a story of love; it's a story of freedom found in another soul, of rebellion dressed as romance, of secrets heavy enough to break but beautiful enough to hold. In a world that wants them apart, Aarav and Nina learn that the most unforgettable love is the one you're willing to risk everything for.

Ignitable by KBMallion

Sophia is sat in a bar with only a large glass of wine for company, quietly nursing a broken heart. When a charismatic stranger approaches her, he's not only confidently funny, smart and intriguing... he's undeniably attractive. That night, for the first time in a very long while, Sophia feels womanly and wanted. This mysterious stranger not only makes her laugh, he ignites something within the very unwanted parts of herself. He ignites something that makes her willingly want to go against all that she thinks she is. ~ Cade Lapley is a ruthless barrister: equally so in his personal life. He is suave, sophisticated and wealthy, with emotional baggage almost as big as his oversized ego. When he meets the just dumped, Sophia Hale, he finds himself inexplicably drawn to her. He is feeling something, and Cade Lapley just doesn't do feelings of any kind. Yet somehow, this lost-looking woman ignites something within him; a place that has been dark and uncaring ever since he was a little boy. He knows he is playing with an emotional fire, and will more than likely only get his fingers badly burnt. Yet still, Cade finds himself unable to leave this woman alone. He knows he should. Not only for Sophia's sake, but more selfishly for his. Only, he can't. One man. One woman. Together.... Ignitable. ***DOES CONTAIN SWEAR WORDS & SCENES OF INTIMATE AND GRAPHIC NATURE*** IGNITABLE Published by K B Mallion Copyright © 2017 K B Mallion

Facade Of Perfectionism by Shrya1712

'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention. She seems to have everything she could ask for. What could possibly be wrong with her near to perfect life? Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. Maya has her demons that she desperately attempts to hide from the world that not a single soul knows about. Shawn Daniels is the perfect storm and the missing puzzle in Maya's life. He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down. Love will make you doubt every single thing that you believe in yet you will find yourself drowning in it slowly, very slowly but deeply. _______________________________________________________ All rights reserved © 2020-Shrya1712

Lost In Sea by Naina_14

And Ayaan... the boy who promised to stay but walked away instead. Years later, she's not the same girl anymore. She's stronger. Louder. Busier. She's building her career, learning to live again - pretending she's over him. But when she moves back home, everything comes crashing down. Because Ayaan is still there. Different, successful, but still him - the same eyes, the same pull, the same chaos. And this time... he's not walking away. Between hidden dates, strict parents, and the scars of old wounds - Noor and Ayaan try again. But love after trauma isn't simple. It's raw. It's painful. And sometimes, it's the only thing that makes you feel alive again.

Part Of Him by Elira_Solane

She was supposed to remember the best day of her life. She just can't remember if it ever happened. Ava used to believe in ordinary magic. Messy mornings with Maya knocking over mugs and yelling about coffee filters. Studio nights where Aiden argued about fonts like the world depended on it. Quiet days filled with pencil smudges, gold light, and music she never let anyone else hear. She had rules, routines, a voice that filled the room when she wanted it to-and a life that, while chaotic, was hers. Then came the stillness. They say she's healing. That memory can be slippery after grief. But the pieces don't align. Why does she flinch when he touches her? Why do her old journals sound like they were written by a stranger? Why does Aiden-distant, bitter, and quiet-look at her like she betrayed him? And why does Maya, the one person who always told her the truth, suddenly fall silent when Ava starts asking questions? Her past is blurred. Her future feels chosen for her. And in the mirror, she sees a girl shaped by someone else's hands. But somewhere, buried under fog and half-truths, a part of her remembers what it felt like to belong to no one. Not loved. Not kept. Not rewritten. Just... hers.

hollow souls by pearlescennnn

𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐈𝐂 𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐈 is a mystery wrapped in darkness no one dares to unravel. Pain and sin have been etched into his skin, coursing through his veins like poison. Broken and battered more times than he can count, his soul carries silent scars few will ever see, scars born from horrors no one should survive. He was forged in cruelty, dragged through self-destruction and numbness, with death lurking just beyond his grasp since the moment his life slipped away. Salvation? He never wanted it. Sex was the only friend who stayed. 𝐋𝐘𝐑𝐀 𝐓𝐇𝐑𝐎𝐍𝐄 was once radiant, a bright light in a dark world, but now she's a hollow shell of numbness and despair. What stole her spark left her empty, drowning in a sea of pain she can barely swim through. The world feels distant, like something she watches through glass, untouched and untouchable. Desperate to feel anything, she turns to the bottle and the burn of her own scars. An angel's face with the devil's tongue, she's sin personified, broken beyond repair yet still unyielding. Their lives are raw wounds, bleeding into each other with every fight, every reckless touch. They destroy and salvage one another in a vicious cycle - he feels too much, and she feels nothing at all. Together, they are pain made flesh, sin made real, bound by a fierce, painful love that neither can escape. Can two hollow souls find salvation in each other, or are they doomed to break forever?

"The Sky We Once Dreamed" by bealuvedobe

Noah dreamed of touching the skies - not knowing he'd lose the one person who taught him how to reach them. He was the quiet boy no one noticed, with eyes full of dreams and pockets full of nothing. She was the girl who had everything - beauty, fame, and a heart too fragile to be seen. Their story began with a school project, and ended with a goodbye that tore the world apart. Years later, fate brings them back - two hearts scarred by time, two souls pretending they've forgotten. But love has a strange way of finding its way home. Until tragedy strikes... and Noah wakes up - in the same classroom, on the same first day, with Sarah's laughter echoing beside him. Was it all just a dream? Or did love bend time itself to give them one more chance? Because sometimes, the universe breaks your heart - just to teach you how to love with everything that's left of it.
