Everyone thinks we're over.
They think I moved on.
They think he's getting engaged to his cousin.
But we talk every day.
We send hints, secret calls, fake stories, and coded words - just to keep them from tearing us apart.
The only problem?
He's religious. I'm not.
And the people who hate us are getting closer.
This isn't just a love story.
It's a survival story - of two hearts stuck between faith, fate, and fake smiles.

And You Stayed...
She is not cold. She is tired. Ruth has spent so long surviving her own mind that loving someone feels like another responsibility she might fail. She pushes. She withdraws. She convinces herself she is protecting him. Dylan loves without knowing where to stop. He stays when it would be easier to leave. He calls it devotion. He does not realize it is slowly costing him pieces of himself. When honesty finally breaks through, love is no longer soft. It is heavy. It is breathless. It is two people trying not to drown while holding on to each other. "And You Stayed" is not about perfect romance. It is about what happens when love is real but oxygen is not. For readers who believe staying is sometimes harder than leaving.
Touch of Fate
"You were the quiet prayer I never realized I was making, answered in ways I never knew I needed." He wore a smile that hid scars no one could see. She was the woman on run, lost in the world she barely understood. Escaping a life of captivity and deception, she stumbles into a world she barely understands-and into the life of a man who seems effortlessly carefree but is anything but. To her, he's the answer to a prayer she's still learning how to make. To him, she's chaos in its purest form, a reminder of truths he's spent years burying. With danger lurking close behind her, and innocence radiating through her eyes he has no choice but to protect her. But protection comes with secrets, challenges, and a commitment he never anticipated. As their worlds collide, what starts as an uneasy alliance transforms into something neither of them expected. This is a story of two souls, each searching for freedom in their own way-one running from the chains of the past, the other trapped by the weight of his past. Together, they'll find healing, laughter, and a bond that defies all odds. Join them on a journey of chaos, laughter, faith, and love-a tale of two hearts finding a home where they least expected it.

The Love That Ruined Me
Started: 10/28/2025 Ended: I knew he was married, but I still let myself fall. We were friends before his wife came, not close, not strangers either. We never said what we truly felt, maybe because we were afraid to give it meaning. But fate played its cruel trick. We ended up living in the same boarding house, different rooms, the same secret. We both knew it was wrong, yet we crossed the line anyway. He was my first, my first love, my first sin, my first heartbreak. I thought I could handle it, but loving him was slowly destroying me. So I did the only thing that could save what was left of me. I left him. Because sometimes, walking away doesn't mean you stopped loving. It just means you've finally learned to love yourself.
