This is a story about love that warms at first, but then starts to burn.
About two young people - Emilia and Dom - who seek peace in each other, but find only fire.
Their text conversations start as innocent misunderstandings, but quickly turn into knives. Words that could comfort turn into walls. Silence that could calm becomes a burning response.
Emilia - sensitive, longing to be understood, feels "too much".
Dom - closed, unable to show feelings, calls everything a drama.
And so a love flares up between them that no longer heals, but destroys.
This is a story about depression, loneliness, the power of words and the weight of silence. About how love can save... or destroy.
"Love that burns" - a book for those who have felt misunderstood at least once. For those who were afraid to say how much it hurts. For those who loved so much that they turned to ashes.

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

A Fire's Inescapable Faith (ENGLISH ver.)
A fire burns because it must - just as love, desire, or destiny cannot resist their own nature. It destroys, yet it purifies; its "faith" is its unshakable purpose to consume and transform. Just like Leon, who burns for her - unable to escape that feeling, no matter how dangerous or consuming it is. Sherina Sze disappeared after her world shattered when her fiancé left her. Unknowingly, Someone kept burning for her - trapped in a flame he couldn't extinguish, no matter how much it scorched him. What will happen now that she finally decides to return to the city she once cursed and swore never to go back to? This time, she'll cross paths with the only man she doesn't remember - the one who carries the burnt scar she left on his heart, a wound that made him dangerously addicted to her.
A HEARTBEAT IN THE SILENCE
Love story of fate and forgiveness, where two souls are destined to find each other-but risk being torn asunder by the silence of what remains unspoken-in a world made up of whispers and secrets. An introverted and contemplative artist who quits the noise of his past to settle in a mist-shrouded town stumbles into Yuki, a girl with a gentle spirit and tormenting silence in her eyes, whose world clashes with his, and they are stuck by an unspoken bond and a lingering sorrow that neither can quite define. It is as if, the closer he gets, the more sensitive Kai becomes to some sort of invisible string that ties him to her and pulsates within the quiet which pushes him to discover a truth he can feel but not see. But Yuki holds a secret tied in memory-a memory Kai cannot reach, and Yuki cannot let go. In a heart-wrenching journey through vivid dreams, forgotten letters, and the echoes of a lost love, Kai and Yuki find themselves bound in a past they don't remember, yet one that refuses to let them go. Each heartbeat draws them closer to a revelation that could heal their broken souls or shatter the fragile hearts. Is it powerful enough to overcome the silences of life, or will the truth that seems to exist within their hearts prove too great for them to face? It is in this journey that 'A Heartbeat in the Silence is an emotional masterpiece that will pull at your heartstrings and leave you wondering how far you would go for a love that exists between the heartbeats of memory and silence.Complete

"Can I have your number?" "No." "Then at least tell me your name." "Never! I want nothing to do with you. And you think I'd tell you my name? You must be dreaming." - Serena went to the library for silence, not a stubborn man who refuses to leave her alone. One accidental encounter turns into a series of unwanted meetings with a charming, irritating stranger who seems far too interested in her. What begins as annoyance slowly transforms into something neither of them planned. He calls it fate. She calls it a mistake. But the more she runs, the closer he gets. #comedy #romance #funnyComplete
shattered souls
𝐋𝐈𝐎𝐑𝐀 𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐖𝐘𝐍 wears pain like a second skin. It's all she's ever known, etched into her bones, buried beneath forced smiles and hollow laughter. Once passionate, once burning bright, now nothing but ash and ruin. She pretends well, but behind the sharp tongue and unbothered eyes lies a girl screaming to be seen, yet terrified someone actually might. 𝐀𝐑𝐄𝐒 𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐑𝐈𝐍 was born into a world already at war with him. Pain wasn't just a chapter in his life, it was the whole book. Raised in shadows, fed by poison, his lungs filled with smoke and silence. He never asked for love. He never believed he deserved it. Drugs kept the demons quiet. Cigarettes kept his hands busy. Until her. The only good card he's ever been dealt, fragile, feral, and just as broken as him. Together, Liora and Ares are destruction wrapped in desire. A love not meant to be touched, yet impossible to resist. It's messy. Chaotic. Addictive. It's the kind of love that leaves scars, and still, they keep reaching for each other, again and again. What happens when two shattered souls try to build something whole out of ruin?Complete
