Will I always be incomplete?
Will I ever have the kind of love that feels like magic-not just in books, but in real life?
Can I shape my own destiny-or will I shatter trying?
Will I ever be worthy of him
After the death of her grandparents, Irene Duskwither is forced to return to Hallstatt Valley-a place she once called home, and then desperately tried to forget. Her dreams of a medical career in London are put on hold as she returns to the place she once fled, hoping never to look back. The place she ran from. The village is just as she left it: small, suffocating, and full of pitying glances from neighbours and old friends who never truly understood her. Now she's back, and so are the memories. The stares. The whispers. The ache of everything she tried to leave behind. And him-the boy she was never supposed to love. In the space of a single week, Irene is forced to face the grief she buried, the love she denied, and the version of herself she thought she'd left behind. She's not sure if she's strong enough to stay-or brave enough to let herself feel again. Will this week in Hallstatt Valley drown her once more, or will she finally rise above it all and let herself love-and be loved-in return? Will this week in Hallstatt Valley destroy the life she built for herself once more, or will she finally rise, stronger and braver than before?
Follow Irene on a journey of heartbreak and healing, as she learns that sometimes, the path to becoming whole begins with falling apart, where she pieces herself back together and discovers that sometimes, the most broken hearts make the fiercest survivors.

Unconditional Love: From Unfinished to Forever
She was his past. His "what-if." His unfinished chapter. He left without a word. No explanation. No goodbye. Just silence-cold, heavy, louder than any heartbreak could ever be. The truth came later, sharp and merciless: he had already found someone else. A new girl. A new life. And she-still trapped in the ruins of their love-was left with only questions that had no answers. She never hated him. Not truly. She hated the pain. The emptiness. The nights spent whispering his name into the darkness, hoping it would reach him somehow. She hated how her heart refused to let go, how her love-quiet, loyal, undying-remained, even when he was gone. Years passed. And then he returned. Mature. Changed. Sincere. The boy who had broken her had become a man carrying the weight of his mistakes after he knows the truth about her. Once, they had been reckless hearts, loving without knowing forever. Now, the same love returned-stronger, deeper, and more dangerous than ever. He was her peace in chaos, her truth in silence, the only man she had ever truly loved. And yet, she knew the truth: loving him again could destroy everything. It could break her all over again, or break the life he had now built. And still, the pull between them was irresistible, a force she could not deny. Her heart whispered the choice she would make, even as her mind screamed its warning. Some love-unfinished, eternal, impossible-refuses to be left behind. And she would follow it, knowing the regret that would haunt her for the rest of her life. When hearts-once they have found their other half-will chase it even into heartbreak. Even into ruin. True love is unstoppable and unconditional No matter where life leads, no matter the distance, when one heart trembles, the other reaches without hesitation- to embrace, to soothe, to whisper, "I AM ALWAYS HERE.""
We Never Broke Up (A Second Chance Romance)

I yearn for your touch, your scent, and everything about you drives me wild," he admitted, his words close to my face. I let out a shaky breath as I felt a warmth spread through my body. "Thad, I think you're getting something wrong," I began, but he interrupted me. "No, you're the one refusing to admit that you're feeling the same way I am," he insisted, causing me to fall silent.

× Parkside Manor × (BxB)
"Who the fuck do you think you are, talking to me?" The foreign man's eyes looked me up and down, making my skin prickle. The environment was unknown, thrumming with magic I couldn't place. Did this place even exist on earth? " Excuse me? I'm the keeper of this place! And you just came crashing in out of nowhere! And for the record? That's not supposed to happen." The 'keeper' as he called himself, pointed at me, his expression pinched. "And that's my fault, how?" I rolled my eyes, wincing slightly as I shifted my weight off my injured foot. "You're just an annoying little-" I coughed, looking at my hand. Blood? I wasn't supposed to bleed. Not like this. "What was that?" He looked at me cheekily. "Just get me the fuck out of here." "Ha, I don't think so. You're staying here until we figure out why the hell you managed to get through impenetrable magic. Besides, you wouldn't survive the transfer anyways. Not in that state." He eyed me, practically mocking me. "..." I growled. "I'll kill you." "And then you'll never get out, so what'll it be? My head, or your escape. Your choice." God, I hate Wizards. ___________________________________ Welcome back, any of you who have been reading OGB. And if you're new, feel free to check it out.
