Sela Vienne works in student services, quietly managing feedback forms and evaluation reports. Calix Bennett maintains tech equipments across campus-fixing broken projectors, replacing cables, and keeping things running behind the scenes. They cross paths over a jammed printer. Then again when Calix drops off a box of misplaced rubrics. Their exchanges are brief, practical, and a little awkward.
But they keep happening.
Over time, they begin to share small things: thing about a messy handwriting, the quiet spot, cheese crackers and lemon candies. Nothing dramatic. Just the kind of gestures that fill the small hours of a long day.
Sela starts noticing how Calix listens-not just to her, but to silence. Calix finds himself looking forward to her emails and messages, even when they're just about printer errors or other technical errors. Neither of them calls it love. Not yet.
Then one day, tucked inside a feedback form, Sela finds a note. It's not signed. Just one line: "You make the quiet feel full."

Twisted Hearts, Tangled Fates
Talia is shy, fiery, and drowning in anger she can barely control. Calix is everything she hates-arrogant, mysterious, and infuriatingly irresistible. When fate (and a twisted set of circumstances) force them together, sparks fly-but not the kind that warm hearts. In a world where love feels more like a battlefield, Talia and Calix must navigate secrets, lies, and dark pasts. Slowly, the walls they've built around their hearts start to crumble-sometimes with a laugh, sometimes with tears, and sometimes in the pouring rain. This is a story about enemies who become more than that, a slow-burning dance of tension, pain, and unexpected love. Because sometimes, to save your soul, you have to risk everything-including your heart.Complete
The Home We Share

Quiet, steady, and deeply affected by her presence in ways he never expected. Living under the same roof, they challenge each other's boundaries, growing closer and closer until the lines between friendship, desire, and something far more dangerous start to blur.
Unfinished Glances: A Love That Never Began - Part 2
She was just another student preparing for her board exams, and he was the quiet observer in the library-watching her, admiring her, but never daring to speak. Before he could gather the courage to talk to her, she was gone. Their story never even had a beginning. Years later, fate brought them together again, but not as two strangers in a library. Now, she's a cadet, and he's an officer-strict, distant, and bound by duty. The rules demand discipline, not emotions. He's no longer just a boy who once watched her; he's the man who must now push her beyond her limits. But what happens when silent care turns into something deeper? When unspoken words demand to be heard? With only a week left before she leaves again, will they let this unfinished story fade into nothing... or will fate finally give them a chance? Are you ready to find out what happened next?Complete
Found Again 🌙
After five years of silence, Nila wasn't expecting to see Aarav again-especially not in the same office corridor where their story had once quietly unraveled. She had learned to bury her feelings, to live with the echoes of love that never got to grow. But fate has its own rhythm. From shared glances to shared coffee, from unsent letters to late-night conversations, Nila and Aarav begin to rewrite what was lost. Not with grand declarations, but with the slow, aching honesty of people who've been broken-and are now brave enough to hold each other gently. This is not a love story about fireworks. It's about returning. About staying. About the quiet kind of love that asks nothing but presence... and gives everything in return. A story of second chances, soft tension, and the love that waited.Complete
Love Letter
Ever wondered what it would be like to live in the past when love letters were still a thing? Not just any love letters-the kind written with actual ink and quill, maybe even sealed with a drop of blood if you're into that sort of thing. Okay, maybe that's a bit too fictional. That only happens in fantasy novels-or any romance novel with a regency theme. But what about a simple, handwritten love letter? Just pen and paper. No theatrics. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to receive one? Yeah, me neither. In a world filled with instant messaging and emails, who even has the time to sit down, write a letter by hand, and mail it to someone's doorstep? Love letters are practically extinct. Which is why I was completely caught off guard when I found one lying in front of my door. An actual, physical love letter. Not regency-style, but sealed in an envelope with a wax heart stamp. Bonus points to the sender for choosing pink paper. Cue my mix of emotions: confusion, excitement... and just a little bit of horror. Because, let's be real-this could mean I have a stalker. But as I read the letter, that fear faded. This wasn't some creepy obsession. This was an actual secret admirer letter. And now, I find myself waiting-anticipating-the next one.

A Dress, A Glance and Him
Some silences speak louder than love confessions. Lune didn't wear dresses. Endri didn't ask questions. Until one morning changed both. Set in the quiet corridors and shadowed classrooms of a university , when Lune shows up in a black dress she wouldn't normally wear, and Endri crosses the street just to walk beside her, something shifts. What starts as casual teasing and coffee turns into something heavier-silent glances across classrooms, prose that sounds too personal, bruises that don't have stories, and a past that doesn't want to stay buried. It's about the unspoken things. The mornings that mean more than they should. The friend you never meant to fall into. And the distance you keep... just to feel safe. A soft, emotional slow-burn about friendship that might be something more-if only someone were brave enough to say it.Complete
Gravel on the Roadside
This is a love story. It's the story of a boy who stood in the corner of the classroom, fell for someone way out of his league-and never said what he wanted to say. 16 years later, he's writing it down. Not for her. Not for you. Just to finally let it goComplete
Balancing Sheets and Hearts
Veer had always believed numbers were safer than people. Equations didn't judge, balance sheets never laughed when he stammered, and silence was easier than speaking up. In a crowded CA coaching class, he was just another backbencher-quiet, invisible, and perfectly fine with it. Until Kiara sat three rows ahead. Ambivert. Bright. The kind of girl who could make friends over a single chai break, yet often disappeared into her own thoughts when no one was watching. She was everything Veer wasn't-confident, effortless, alive. Their worlds were never meant to cross. But when study sessions turned into late-night conversations, and shared calculators became shared secrets, Veer realized that maybe life wasn't just about balancing accounts. Maybe it was about balancing hearts. And in the quiet corners of ledgers and libraries, a shy boy and a not-so-simple girl might just learn that love doesn't need to be loud to be real.
