In a world where love dares not speak its name, "They Both Died, But Only One Stopped Breathing" tells the tragic and tender story of Eli and Calix-two souls bound by unspoken affection, quiet glances, and memories built between library shelves and fleeting moments of almost.
Eli, a quiet writer, never imagined his greatest love story would also be his most painful. When he publishes a book rooted in real memories, it isn't just fiction-it's a memoir wrapped in denial, longing, and grief. As each chapter unfolds, Eli is forced to relive the past: the sweetness of falling for Calix, the heartbreak of miscommunication, the pain of watching him walk away... and the irreversible tragedy that would follow.
But their story doesn't end with the final page.
Narrated in part by Faye-the girl who once unknowingly stood in the middle of their story-the epilogue unearths more than heartbreak. It reveals the truths left unsaid, the letters unread, and the price of love that came too late. Through her voice, we come to understand the weight of love lost, the silence of those left behind, and the cruel beauty of a love that lingers even after death.
This is not just a love story.
This is a confession. A legacy. A reminder that some stories live on-even when their authors do not.

THAT ONE NIGHT LOVE
It was just one night. One room. No promises. No confessions. Just two people- who should've walked away. But something about the way they looked at each other... The way silence held more meaning than words ever could... Made that night less of a mistake and more of a memory neither body could forget. Now, two years later, they're back. In the same city. Under different names. Carrying the same ache. She has someone new. He almost moved on. But love doesn't always announce itself- sometimes it just lingers. What happens when: - a closed room remembers what the world forced them to forget? - bodies touch again, but hearts hesitate harder? - one mug, one bed, one white shirt brings everything rushing back? "Unfinished things don't die. They wait. In bedrooms like this - with people like us." 🌙 A poetic, slow-burn Hinglish story. Of what was never said, what was never supposed to happen, and what still might - if they dare.

Love That Shouldn't Exist (Love That #2)
They say brothers are meant to fight, to laugh, to protect each other, to share the same roof and the same life. And for as long as I can remember, that's what Anxin has been to me-my brother. But somewhere along the way, something changed. The late-night talks, the way his smile lingers in my head, the way my chest tightens when he's near. It's wrong. It's forbidden. It's the one rule I can never break. Because no matter how much I want him... he's my brother. Or at least, that's what I've always believed.Complete

Through Another Life, I Loved You
In a world where love transcends life itself, a girl experiences the deepest bond with her girlfriend, sharing sweet moments and innocent laughter. But a single misunderstanding spirals into silence, heartbreak, and tragedy, tearing them apart in a way that feels final.

Through observing her from afar, hidden in plain sight as someone she could never love, the protagonist endures two years of longing, devotion, and unseen sacrifice. Every glance, every gesture is filled with the echo of a love that cannot be spoken aloud, a love that can only exist in shadow. And when the truth finally emerges, it shatters what remains, leaving a haunting realization: some loves are destined to be felt, never fully held. Through another life, through loss, through the cruel hands of fate, the story of a love unbroken yet unreachable unfolds-a love that, even in reincarnation, cannot find its ending.Complete
Me and you till the end
"They hated each other first. Then they learned what real love feels like messy, loud, and impossible to forget." Jacob Reeves and Olivia Wilde were never supposed to work together. He was the quiet, brooding type - the guy who kept his guard up and his feelings buried deeper than anyone could reach. She was all passion and fire, a hopeless romantic who believed that love could fix anything. So when they were forced to team up for a college project about love, it felt like a cruel joke. Their meetings were full of sarcasm, stubborn arguments, and frustrated sighs. He thought she was too idealistic. She thought he didn't have a heart. But late nights have a way of breaking down walls. Between stacks of notes and too many cups of coffee, their conversations began to shift. The project became an excuse to stay longer, to talk about things that had nothing to do with school - dreams, fears, regrets, and everything in between. Somewhere between the bickering and the laughter, Jacob and Olivia fell for each other. Not in a perfect, movie-scene kind of way, but in a real way - messy, unexpected, and impossible to control. But timing has never been kind to them. Life pulled them in different directions - heartbreaks, ambitions, and choices they couldn't undo. Still, what they shared never truly faded. It lingered in every memory, every "what if," every song that reminded them of what once was. Because some love stories don't end - they echo. And theirs? It's the kind you never forget, no matter how far you run.Complete
Unfinished Business | WlW (Completed)
Dr. Mayari Fate Morris and Officer Luna Yves Lorenzo were once inseparable-two dreamers who swore they'd carve out their own futures, side by side. But reality had other plans. Faye chased her medical career, eventually stepping into the limelight as a part-time model. Yves, ever the nonchalant rebel, donned a badge and a gun, keeping the city's chaos in check. Years passed without a word between them. Their love, once unshakable, had crumbled under the weight of unspoken words, clashing ambitions, and one painful final fight that sent them in opposite directions. But fate has a cruel sense of humor. One night, Yves stumbles into Fate's ER, covered in blood-not her own, but from a case gone wrong. Seeing each other after all this time sends a jolt through them, but before either can process it, another shock arrives in the form of a five-year-old girl with Yves's eyes and Fate's nose. Fate's world tilts. She doesn't remember ever carrying a child. But Yves's gaze is unreadable when she finally confesses the truth: five years ago, before their falling out, they had undergone reverse surrogacy-Fate's egg, Yves's womb. But before Fate could ever know, Yves had disappeared. Now, standing face to face with both the woman who left her and the child she never knew existed, Fate is thrown into a whirlwind of buried emotions, lingering betrayals, and unanswered questions. But the past isn't the only thing threatening them. The case that put Yves in that hospital bed isn't just dangerous-it's personal. And whether Fate wants to or not, she's about to find herself tangled up in it. Because some stories never truly end. Some wounds never fully heal. And some unfinished business refuses to stay buried.Complete

Only Girl In The World (Completed)
*A Wattpad exclusive story* *Unique plot* *Not a typical werewolf rejection story* ~ What Jacob has made her into? How is she to fight the beasts and save her people when she's herself one! ~ "You're my mate, and you know I can't let you go, Belle," Jacob's voice, his breaths were soon fanning down the back of her neck, signaling that he had stepped much closer to her again. "We can't let you go. You're our precious princess..., we can't live without you. I love you, Belle, we all love you!" Jacob's breath tickling across the back of her neck made her shudder in pleasure. This uncontrollable sense of pleasure, warmth, and... love, all made her want to stay back, forget yet again what she had just remembered, and go back to the days she didn't have her memories - her past. "I want to stay," was her slow murmur. Jacob breathed in relief, almost. Because her next words then crashed him down, completely. "But... I can't, because you don't lie to who you call your precious, Jacob. You don't lie to who you love." Her voice was back to cold again and so was her resolve. Holding her arm frantically, Jacob whirled her around to face him. "I can give you anything," he looked desperate and on the brink of insanity. "I will give you anything, do everything that you tell me to, just name it." Kristin didn't jerk away from his hold this time, she looked at him searching, calculating. All in a freezing way. "Then I ask you to let me go." He knew this was the final nail of this coffin, the coffin that would hold his love. Infinite howls echoed around in the woods, as the pack grieved, for their only girl - who'd, at last, remembered her past and rejected the life they gave her. She would leave them, and they knew their world would never be the same again. But they had yet to discover that from the ashes now something momentous shall rise. ''Complete
