In the world of A Tangled Essence, love is rarely gentle-it tangles, it scars, it heals, and it burns. The Short Stories slip between the cracks of the main novel, revealing the stolen kisses, the whispered promises, and the heartbreaks too fleeting yet too powerful to forget. Each story is a secret thread, weaving passion and pain into the tapestry of Iris Rose's world-proof that sometimes the smallest moments can change everything.

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
Before Us, After Me
A story of love that bloomed, broke, and left her to rebuild from the pieces. They met by chance. Fell hard. Built dreams between kisses and promises. And then- the slow unraveling. This is the story of a girl who loved deeply and lost quietly. Of betrayal whispered through late-night silences and heartbreak that didn't end with goodbye. It's about watching him become someone else's, while she was still holding onto the version of him he used to be. But it's also about becoming. Told in six parts-Before Us, Becoming Us, The Distance, The Ending, After Us, and Becoming Me Again-this is her journey from first glance to final goodbye, and the love she found on the other side of letting go.Complete

"It's the first time I've ever felt such warmth - it made me feel like, I've been living with coldness within me all these years. I opened my eyes and turned around, wondering if anyone felt the same or if anyone saw the reaction I made. I looked at the church again - now I'm more curious than ever and I think I should just ask God what exactly happened to me just a while ago, here at the entrance of Saint Gregory the Great Parish." If your brain refuses to remember, will your heart tell you everything you need to know? And if fate refuses the idea of you being together, will love be enough to hold on and never let go? A story about the beauty and magic that comes with love, alongside the painful decisions we need to make just to fulfill our promises of 'I Love yous' and 'Forevers'Complete

Because the man who saved her in the desert has no intention of letting her go. And Amaya is about to learn that some loves are born in darkness... and some obsessions never die. He saved her life.
