Melanie Cruz never asked for attention.
Her world was paint and silence-dark strokes born from pain, betrayal, and secrets she could never name. Transferred into an elite university, she wanted nothing more than to stay invisible.
But Jireh Santiago was impossible to ignore.
The golden boy, campus idol, leader of the boyband ECLIPSE. Adored by everyone, chased by girls, always smiling. Until Melanie's blunt words cut through his perfect world... and he couldn't forget her.
She paints her sorrows.
He sings his heart.
Two souls from different worlds, drawn together by truths neither of them dares to say out loud.
In a campus full of noise, will her silence finally find its voice in him? Or will love be just another color that fades too soon?

Echoes of Us
"She was the silence I craved. I was the chaos she never expected." Rachelle Azrielle De Leon was the type who lived in shadows-quiet, composed, and always a step away from everyone else. With eyes always fixed on her books, she kept her world tightly locked, hiding scars from a broken family and the insecurities she couldn't name aloud. Smart, secretive, and painfully self-aware-she made sure no one got too close. Then came Seraphina Marceline Clemente-fiery, athletic, and effortlessly magnetic. She lived like life was one big game, and she played to win. Loud laughter, confident strides, and a smile that could make even the coldest day feel like summer-Seraphina wasn't just the sunshine; she was the whole damn sky. When they became classmates, they were nothing more than opposites forced to share the same space. No sparks. No tension. Just passing glances-two lives on parallel lines. But love? Love has a habit of slipping in when you're not looking. And three months into the school year, their lines finally crossed-for real. And once they did, neither of them could pretend they hadn't noticed. Disclaimer & Credits This story is a work of fiction published on Wattpad.

She hated the spotlight. He lived in it. She was just the quiet girl with perfect grades. He was power wrapped in charm. Rich beyond belief. An heir to a name powerful enough to open any door and shut any mouth. Nobody knew her secrets, hidden behind glass smiles and a shine so bright. Nobody knew his darkness, worn like a crown. That was bowed before. He didn't shine, he burned. Selena didn't know what she was getting into. It was her sister's friend. It was a harmless crush. A fantasy. A look. But then, he looked back. Now he wants her. To claim. To possess. To destroy and rebuild until there's nothing left of her that isn't his. He'd bleed, hurt -- burn down the world to have her. She wanted to belong. He wanted her to belong to him.

But after his father's sudden death, Luca starts skipping practice, failing classes, and withdrawing from his friends.
