War forgets what art remembers.
Grief remembers what war forgets.
All Giselle Allard wanted was to honour her and her sister's shared dream by becoming a prima ballerina. And yet, in a city of snow-dusted dreams, hers seems as far out of reach as ever. Working hard to overcome cultural barriers as a French pariah in France, the arrival of the Maître de Ballet en Chef's son only complicates matters for her.
ㅤInjured and decorated, Anton Volkov has returned home to Leningrad by no volition of his own, torn between ideology and the voices of the ghosts that follow him. He didn't mean to be pulled into her orbit. She didn't mean to fall for someone who was more soldier than poet.
ㅤAs Giselle dances toward the role that can make or break her and her dreams, Anton finds himself caught between sides and the startling desire of wanting something for himself for once. She is everything the state doesn't reward, but the more she dares to shine, the more he finds himself drawn in, despite knowing exactly how it ends for men like him. In the heart of Leningrad, Giselle and Anton must choose what's worth holding on to: duty, desire, or the fragile beauty of something that may not survive the final act.
After all, every ballet has its last bow.
And every soldier learns when not to march.
Either way, the curtain never falls quietly.
ㅤㅤan original historical romance.

What If We Drown ✓
Ashlyn hasn't spoken a word since the age of eight, and her heart's never felt more protected. But, when the confident and ever so charming Derek stumbles into her quiet little world, her emotions-and forbidden desires-have never been so loud. ***** For twenty years, silence is all Ashlyn Holland has known. Haunted by the memories of her father, and the harrowing song of the ocean that stole him from her, Ashlyn maintains a safe distance from the rest of the world. Treading carefully the sea of fear and anguish that surrounds her, Ashlyn is determined to do all she can to protect her heart from such a tragic loss striking again. In silence, she grieves. In silence, she is safe. In silence, she finds the strength to breathe. But the silence can only last so long... Derek Moreno is charming and devoted, and quick to see through every wall Ashlyn erects. With his arrival in town, defences fold and walls begin to crumble, the songs of her heart reaching new heights. Together, they crest twin tides of fate, the silence she'd once sought engulfed by his gentle touch, and the whispers of a love thought impossible. For the summer, Ashlyn welcomes the noise. The disruption. But, the ghosts of Derek's past will no longer remain silent, and their deafening power has the potential to drag them both into a current strong enough to drown them amidst their heartache.

The Way He Saw Her
He wasn't supposed to see her again. Not after everything burned to ashes, not after he buried that part of his life deep beneath Moscow's frozen silence. But one glimpse-just one-through the blur of city traffic, and she was there. Her face, a memory he never managed to forget. Her eyes, the ghost that still kept him awake. For years, he's watched her from afar-quietly, carefully, dangerously. Not out of love. Not entirely. Because sometimes obsession doesn't start with desire-it starts with a memory that refuses to fade. And now that he's back... she's about to learn that some ghosts never stop following you. He's the kind of man you notice twice - once because you feel his presence before you see him, and again because you wish you hadn't. Born in Russia, the heir of the Morozov legacy. Mikhail Morozov, raised in silence and scars, he learned early that the world doesn't reward softness. He speaks little, but when he does, his words cut clean - precise, deliberate, dangerous. He moves like someone who's always calculating, never surprised. The kind of man whose calmness makes you uneasy. There's something about him that doesn't belong anywhere - not in the light, not in love, not even in the life he's trying to rebuild. But the moment he saw her again, everything he had buried began to surface. The danger, the desire, the memories - all of it. Now, he's not chasing her. He's remembering her... and that might be even worse.
Unbounded Love
Sofia Petrov was used to a life of danger. Growing up as a part of the Bratva in Moscow had made sure of that. Though, nothing in the world could have prepared her for the sinful temptation that was Alexei Zakharov. Brooding and haunted by the demons of his past, he'd appeared in her life as her scarred warrior. And for him, she was the one saving grace in the midst of his darkness - his milaya. However, one kiss was all it took to blur the lines of friendship between them because getting feelings involved in the equation was surely a recipe for heartbreak. The only question that remained was whether or not it was too late to go back to the way things used to be. Whether they'd make it out onto the other side unscathed.

His Captive | A Bratva Romance
"She danced for the world until he stole her for himself." DARYA I was supposed to pay for my father's betrayal, but the Pakhan of the Vetrov Bratva had other plans. Ruthless, dangerous, and utterly destructive, Matvey ripped me from my life and locked me in his gilded cage. There was no escaping the man who saw through every hidden crack in my armor. Living under his roof, the line between captor and captive blurred as my twisted desire collided with his deranged obsession. But as secrets from my past surfaced and threats closed in, my captor became my protector. And suddenly, I had to decide whether to fight for freedom... or surrender to the man who could claim everything, including my heart. MATVEY She was meant to be a simple pawn in my answer to her father's betrayal, yet I knew she was different from the moment I saw her dance. I had waited for the chance to invade her life, for I always take what's mine, and I wanted Darya Andreeva to be mine in every way that mattered. She wasn't the fragile doll she let everyone believe, but fire wrapped in porcelain skin-a ballerina I could never forget. My obsession with her was inevitable, so I vowed to protect, claim, and consume her, no matter the danger or the ghosts of the past. She would see my world, my darkness, my devotion, and in the chaos of blood, desire, and power, Darya would learn that in my world, nothing and no one stood between me and what I claimed. Author's Note: This story is a dark romance with mature themes, including abduction, violence, obsession, and age-gap dynamics. It's not a lighthearted love story so please read only if you're comfortable with morally gray characters and intense situations.
You're The Music That's Been Playing In My Head: Book 2
Miraculous Ladybug was created by Thomas ASTRUC, Disney Channel owns the right to the show Miraculous Ladybug, and You own the right to you. I only own any non-canon events to the original canon. This will go through the entire series (that is available). Fully revised. This is book two to You're The Music That's Been Playing In My Head. I claim no music as my own; they all belong to their respective creators. I claim no art as my own; they all belong to their respective creators, save for shittly colored pencil-drawn hero designs on lined paper, those are mine. Under Revision Trigger warnings at the end and in tags It's only been half a year since I've arrived in Paris and I joined forces with Ladybug and Chat Noir as (s/n) with the polar bear miraculous to stop Hawkmoth. There hasn't been much progress in finding the peacock miraculous though it would help if there was time to ask Ladybug for help but now that I've learned who she is and met the guardian new info about the miraculous has been found which will hopefully give me some leads to where my heirloom is. Not only that I need to gain the courage to ask out my crush, Luka. - Emotional manipulation - Bullying and verbal abuse - Child abuse - Grief and loss - Violence - Physical trauma - Psychological trauma - PTSD - Mind control/ Loss of agency - Topics regarding racism - Depression/ Sadness - Anxiety/ Anxiety attacks - Eventually, curse words - StalkingZakończone
Le Chat et Le Serpent
Adrien works to heal himself after the death of his father. Even after the death of Gabriel, his power still remains, hindering Adrien's ability to move forward. As he finds solace with Luka, the one holder that knows his identity, he struggles with who he wants to be - who Luka wants him to be. Marinette begins to unravel with her own guilt and wavering direction of her heart and it starts to affect her duties as Ladybug. This story takes place over an extended period of time and will have a significant focus on the rings. The movement of what we learn about the rings will aid to demonstrate the four basic parts of the story. 1. The effect of the rings. Please note that the first part (which is transitioning as I type this summary) is highly focused on "setting the stage". Playing with thematic elements, we build an understanding of the actions of our characters to come. Around chapter 9, we begin to see a shift of style. 2. The tale(s) of the rings of the Graham de Vanily Twins - family relations 3. The ongoing history of the rings 4. Who do we save? ****All characters are over 18 at the beginning of the storyZakończone

🌻 "You smell like everything I was taught to ruin," he whispered into her neck. She should've screamed. Instead, she let him touch her again. _____________~~~~~~~~_____________ They told her to stay away from the forest. They didn't warn her what waited inside. Daryna is a quiet village girl gathering sunflowers on the wrong side of the line when two soldiers drag her into the hands of the enemy. She expects bullets. Interrogation. Maybe death. What she doesn't expect... is him. Nikolai is a Russian commander wrapped in secrets and scars. Cruel. Obsessive. Bound by orders he doesn't always follow. The moment he lays eyes on Daryna- bloodied, trembling, defiant, he feels something fracture. Something dangerous. She's everything he should ruin. And the one thing he can't stop wanting. Caught between loyalty and longing, country and desire, they are the story no one survives. Because in war, nothing stays untouched. Not the land. Not the heart. And never the girl who kissed the enemy. ~~~~~ Dark Romance Enemies to lovers Forbidden obsession Unholy chemistry War & resistance Slavic village culture Slow burn + brutal heat Possessive Antihero 🔞
