Violet Lanes never planned on raising a daughter alone, but life doesn't ask for permission. Between juggling two jobs, late-night shifts, and the constant fear of falling short, romance has been off her radar, until a chance encounter with a woman she's sure is out of her league changes everything.
Caitlyn Kiramman has it all, money, influence, and a career that thrives on her relentless dedication. Love, in her mind, is just a distraction from success, atleast that's what she tells herself after a rough breakup. But when she meets Vi, a struggling single mother with a stubborn smile and more grit than anyone she's ever known, her carefully curated life starts to unravel in ways she can't control.
From coffee shop talks to late-night confessions, their worlds collide, forcing them to face uncomfortable truths about what they want and what they fear. Loving each other could cost them the stability they've fought so hard to protect... but it might also be the one risk worth taking.

Shadows & Gunfire 2
Six years. That's how long it's been since Caitlyn Kiramman last saw her since the blood, the screaming, and the moment that shattered everything. Six years since Nine, the girl she loved, was ripped away... her life stolen by the very man who called himself her father. But death does not always keep its grip. Now, in the shadows, Nine wakes rebuilt, reborn, and changed in ways no one can understand. The chains that bound her are gone... or so she believes. Yet freedom has a price, and in the veins of the girl once called Nine, something darker flows something that could either save her... or consume her entirely. Caitlyn lives unaware, haunted by memories she can't let go of. Does she still grieve the dead? Or has she, after all these years, found the strength to move on? And if Nine stood before her now, would she even recognize the woman she's become? Their lives remain tethered by fate, their birthdays forever shared, their paths carved by a single truth they are children of purpose. Whether they walk toward reunion or ruin... only time will tell.Complete

How Light Learns to Hide
Vi saw her and knew. Caitlyn saw Vi...and everything got complicated. One grew up in the South Side, where dreams don't survive. The other was raised in luxury, where perfection was a cage. They stand together for years, caught in the gravity of what's never said. But something has been waiting in the dark - and it's finally reaching for them. Will they ever name the light they've always kept hidden? "Vi swallowed thickly, her heartbeat pounding so loud in her temples it drowned out everything else. It felt like it was pumping molten gold; dense, burning, and unbearably precious. She was a paradox made flesh. A hurricane of stillness. Chaos flooding in perfect harmony. How could something so dizzying, so immense, feel so soothing? How could the tight knot in her throat be the only thing keeping her grounded? Nothing seemed to exist but the sheer need to answer those damn questions. Two forces crammed into a space too tight not to clash."Complete

"You aren't supposed to be here." the woman tells her. "Is your name on this damn bridge?" Vi bites back, not yet opening her eyes to regain focus. "I'm sorry but I really need this bridge to be alone and...if you could please leave, I'd appreciate it." the woman says, an accent so thick it might as well have clogged her throat. That's it. Vi opens her eyes and turns her head to get a good look at her. "Listen here you-" the words got caught in her throat at that moment, her initial thought and insult that sat on the tip of her tongue. Her grip on the railing unconsciously softened, unaware of how the tension had slowly started to slip away. The woman was so beautiful, Vi almost didn't want to jump. - modern au: where violet, a tired bartender, unexpectedly reunites with a former classmate the same night she was about to take her life.Complete

Her eyes take her all in, the features on her face; those eyes, though hard to decipher because of the cap, Caitlyn was sure as hell those eyes were grey. A slit on her right eyebrow and the roman numerals on her right cheek of six and that scar on her upper lip to the right. That jaw could slice Caitlyn in half and she'd say thank you for it. Fuck, and when she hears her talk for the second time. "Yeah, yeah. I'm looking for my sister..?" Caitlyn had to nibble her lower lip because nobody has this right being this sexy. - modern au!: where caitlyn is powder's tutor who becomes instantly infatuated with vi, a gym instructor (and the sexiest person she has ever met) gay panic, personal issues, chaotic friends and siblings, some annoying exes and FEELINGS ensue!Complete
Killer Queen
(under revision) Caitlyn was the only heir to the throne born because her mother passed away. Left to live in the shadows of her castle, her father only worried about teaching her what he believed was important to rule. He didn't remarry to try for a son, bitter and more powerful than ever. Because he had nothing to lose, not even his own daughter at times. Caitlyn and him drifted apart even more than they were before. Especially as he started treating her solely as an object for his use. Leading her to need some type of escape, some type of fun again. And as her skills in her shot, her strength, and her wit increased. So did her confidence and her will to win, leading her to start sneaking out of the castle gates. Almost every night scaling the buildings and walls to watch the night life in the upper city. Until one night when an incident occurs, causing her to accidentally run into someone. Revealing herself to a complete stranger. Knowing full well that a predicament would arise if that ever happened, she fumbles her way through compromise and bargains to get off easy. But of course, life throws you curve balls and nothing is ever easy. But maybe...maybe that's for the better. ⚠️This is a mature story with mature themes and scenes.
