TAGLINE: "In his quiet he carried the fire for her alone."
Elara never thought a single night could stay with her so deeply. The Bronx was always moving, demanding, pulling her between work, family, and responsibility - yet for one rare night, she stood in a crowd and watched Juno take the stage.
There was something unguarded in him that night, a quiet freedom that drew her in. His smile was easy, his presence radiant in a way that made her forget the chaos around her. For a moment, it felt like the music belonged only to him - and somehow, to her too.
But life teaches you to be practical. Days turned into months, and the rhythm of the city swallowed the memory of that night. The livestreams came too late, the comments too fast, and her presence - her name - faded in the flood. With quiet dignity, she let go, telling herself she was never meant to belong in his world.
Juno, abroad and consumed by flashing lights and endless travel, thought the new faces, gifts, and voices would fill the emptiness. But the fire he carried didn't burn for the crowd. It burned quietly, relentlessly, for the one he hadn't realized he lost.
Hidden Song, Burning Heart is a mature, tender romance about distance, grace, and the hidden connections that refuse to fade. It's about a woman who lets go with grace, her heart still tender, and a man who discovers that love - once found - has a way of finding its way back home.

REDRAWN BY FATE
Once, there was a boy who loved with all his heart. A love so simple, so pure - the kind that blooms in school corridors and ends with promises written in notebooks. He was a boy who longed for the love he lost - a father gone too soon, a heart half-empty. And when she came, he finally felt safe. But safety turned into fear... Fear of losing her, fear that his love itself was a curse. His love grew possessive - and her wings broke beneath it. One day, she left forever... And with her, she took the last piece of him. Years later, he married - not for love, but for duty. A woman who deserved the world... but was tied to a man whose heart belonged to a grave. Now, two souls live under one roof - one haunted by the past, and the other punished for a love she never received.

The Quiet Heart's Accord (A Christian Love Story)
Eunice is tired of the dating scene, and more than anything, she's tired of her own restless heart. A dedicated Christian, she yearns for a real, godly love-the kind built on spiritual foundation, not fleeting infatuation. Unfortunately, her dating history is a revolving door of disappointment. She's prayed, waited, and believed each potential suitor was "the one," only to find they were either immature and unwilling to commit, or worse, masked their intentions behind faith and were purely lustful. Her eagerness to find her 'missing rib' has left her emotionally depleted and questioning her discernment. Hitting rock bottom, Eunice finally surrenders her timeline to the Almighty. She petitions God not for a person, but for undeniable confirmation-a divine sign that her soulmate is indeed on the way, and that she needs to simply stop searching. The answer she receives is an overwhelming peace, a conviction that her future husband will be the one to find her, just as scripture says: "He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord" (Proverbs 18:22, ESV). Now, Eunice must learn to embrace the slow burn-a season of quiet faith, self-discovery, and deep trust. But when a kind, steadfast man suddenly appears in her life, not chasing or demanding, but simply walking alongside her, Eunice is faced with the ultimate test. Is this quiet, consistent presence the Accord her heart has been waiting for, or another distraction disguised as destiny? This is a slow-burn romance about resting in God's timing, learning to trust His peace over your panic, and discovering that the most profound love often arrives not with a declaration, but with a quiet, certain accord.
Wounded Heart ✔
She loved him with devotion so fierce it scorched every heartbeat, every glance. He was her obsession, her reason to breathe, and her undoing. But while her world revolved around him, he remained distant-a presence, never hers. "How do you let go of someone who is the air in your lungs and the ache in your heart?" "He is my breath, and I will forget him when I forget to breathe." Memories burned bright and untouchable-hers alone. She clung to each haunted fragment, every echo of forbidden love. Until fate, honouring a promise to Aashi, forced her into the arms of the man whose heart was a graveyard. "I married you to fulfil her last wish. You will never belong here." His words cut deep-cold, calculated, meant to wound. Cruelty hid his storm. Her silence was her weapon, her pain a fortress. "You think you know pain?" she spat, her eyes blazing. "I live it every day." He turned away, fists clenched. "You don't belong. This will never be your home." Yet, in their grief and fury, sparks flew, igniting something dangerous. "Love and hate are two sides of the same burning coin." When apologies come too late, and regret drowns truth, love risks turning to ash. She walks away, her heart in ruins. He falls, shattered-vowing to bleed, to burn, to reignite the fire in her eyes. "Some hearts are forged in fire. Some burn to ashes." Even if it destroys him. 📅 Start Date: 28th October 2019 ⏳ End Date: 23rd October 2020 ✏️ Edited Date: 2026Complete![The Edge Of Forgiveness [Season 1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/393688430-256-k968282.jpg)

Stays.Complete
Falling for the Kingpin
"Just give me a second, please," I whispered. He stopped. For a heartbeat, I thought maybe-just maybe-he'd turn back. Instead, his voice came, quiet but cruel. "A second? Why? Was four months not enough?" The words hit harder than any scream could have. "You don't understand," I said, but it wasnt a sound. More like a whisper. He spun around so fast it made me flinch. Now we were face-to-face, his breath uneven, eyes wild and shining. I could see the storm inside him, the tears he refused to let fall. "Don't understand what, Elaina?" he said. "Help me here. What don't I understand?" My throat tightened. The words wouldn't come. The truth was right there, pounding in my chest, begging to get out-but all that escaped was a trembling, "I..."

The Weather of Us
He met her in a storm. He found her hair tie on the ground. He returned it the next day like it meant something. After getting dumped in the middle of a train station downpour, Elara Hayes is officially done with romance, heartbreak, and boys who fold at the first sign of feelings. What she doesn't expect is the stranger watching her from across the platform - or the fact that he finds the pink hair tie she dropped and keeps it like it matters. Kade Vance wasn't planning on following her to a café the next morning. He wasn't planning on crossing the room, handing back the hair tie, and asking if she's okay in that rough, quiet voice that sounds like thunder about to break. But storms have a way of pulling people toward each other. She's soft and chaotic - raised between divorced parents who treat feelings like ammunition. He's calm and dangerous - the boy everyone warns her about, the one who watches the world like he's always waiting for it to hit first. They weren't supposed to collide again. They definitely weren't supposed to fall this fast. But when her family dinner explodes and Kade texts her at the exact moment she breaks, everything shifts. Too fast. Too intense. Too much. Exactly like the weather. Now Elara's trying to figure out why a stranger feels safer than her own family, and Kade's trying to hide how hard he's already fallen. Because the truth is simple: She's the calm after his storm. He's the storm she's been waiting for. And some people don't just meet - they collide.
Somewhere Between Us
"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.
