Burns and Belonging
-a modern romance about scars, sparks, and the fight to stay.
They weren't supposed to mean anything to each other.
A charged glance across a crowded bar. A night of distraction. A touch too hot to forget.
But when one night turns into something neither of them planned, old wounds resurface-family scars, broken trust, and the kind of emotional damage that doesn't go quietly. She's guarded, fiery, and used to running. He's patient, steady, and hiding more pain than he lets on.
Love wasn't the plan-but now it's the only thing worth fighting for.
Burns and Belonging is a slow-burn, emotionally raw romance about two flawed people finding heat, heartbreak, and healing in each other.

Little Light (GxG)
In a world that moves too fast, she's learning to breathe slowly. To feel again. To let someone touch the parts of her she thought were long gone. There are no crowns here. No thrones. Just the quiet war of learning how to be held without flinching. She doesn't beg for safety. She creates it in silence. And when she kneels, it's not for weakness- it's because she trusts. But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence.

OBSESSION. too personal
This could have been a gentle story for quiet autumn evenings. But it shattered against Morphine - a chapter that will not let you stay indifferent. And now, you'll understand why. This is not a story about perfect love. It's about healing through pain, about love that blooms after trauma, and about the fragile line between salvation and obsession. She is a woman rebuilding herself from the ashes. Not strong - simply real. A mother. A fighter. A writer whose words cut deeper than truth itself. She doesn't want to be someone's muse - she only wants to be understood. He is the man the world worships... and fears. A legend. A symbol of an era. But behind the fame, there's a man haunted by his own darkness. Together, they are fire and gasoline - two broken souls learning how to love without losing themselves. Their story isn't a fairytale. It's an age-gap dark romance about redemption, grief, and the courage to love again. With touch. With words. With silence between the lines.Complete

As public eyes watch their every move, the two must navigate jealousy, nostalgia, and the undeniable pull that never really faded. This is a slow burn. A story of second chances, unspoken truths, and choosing love on their own terms. Because some stories don't need to be loud to be real. ---Complete
