But when fragments of memory begin to surface and the truth behind the crash unravels, Felix discovers that the heart beating in his chest once belonged to someone connected to the very man who destroyed his family.

A story about guilt, forgiveness, and the fragile miracle of being alive-
How do you live with a heart that isn't yours?
And what happens when it remembers before you do?

SHADOWS OF BROTHERHOOD by Jazmin26007
22 parts Complete
He wasn't the favorite. He wasn't the golden child. But he was the one who bled. When everything around him begins to crumble-family, love, and the secrets of a buried past-Ryan is forced to face a darkness he thought he'd left behind. What happens when the person they never really understood... becomes the only one who can save them? But saving them comes with a price. And some prices leave scars that even time can't heal. A story of sacrifice, forgotten memories, and a boy who was never supposed to be the hero. The boy they misunderstood. The one who laughed the loudest to hide the silence inside. The one who acted tough because no one noticed when he was gentle. The one who was always "too much"-too angry, too lost, too broken to fix. He was the black sheep. The storm in a house that only wanted sunshine. The one they blamed but never truly understood. They didn't know he cried himself to sleep at night. Didn't know he whispered "I'm sorry" to the shadows of parents he lost too young. Didn't know he carried the ache of abandonment in his bones every day. And when he finally found the truth-when he discovered who murdered them- he didn't hesitate. Not once.

"We all leave pieces of ourselves behind in the cities we once walked." Felix Wagner is not a hero. He's an ordinary man burdened by memories, regrets, and a love he thought he had lost forever. Years after parting from Eva, a letter pulls him from the quiet town of Steyr back into the heart of his past. From Vienna to Linz, with stops in Hallstatt, Zurich, Prague, and Florence, Felix embarks on a journey-not to chase answers, but to make peace with who he was, who he became, and who he still longs to be. In each city, strangers become mirrors. In each memory, a question lingers: Can we ever truly return to who we were-or do we become someone new in the process of healing?

She woke up in a hospital bed, disoriented and aching, only to be hit with the devastating news-she had been in a terrible accident... and lost the last five years of her memory. The faces around her felt unfamiliar, except for two: her father... and Kai, the man her heart still called home. But reality didn't match her memories. Because everyone insisted she wasn't with Kai anymore. In fact, she was engaged-to someone else. A calm, steady man named Evan, who stayed by her side through the accident... and after. He claimed to love her. And he was patient-painfully patient-even offering to help her track down Kai, the man she swore was still her forever. As she tried to piece her life back together, torn between the ghost of her past and the man claiming her future, she began to uncover a truth deeper-and darker-than she ever expiected. Because finding Kai again wasn't the miracle she thought it would be. And remembering who she once was... might destroy who she's become.

In a world where love transcends life itself, a girl experiences the deepest bond with her girlfriend, sharing sweet moments and innocent laughter. But a single misunderstanding spirals into silence, heartbreak, and tragedy, tearing them apart in a way that feels final. Death, reincarnation, and the cruel twist of fate bring a second chance-yet in a body that cannot claim the same love, the heartache lingers. Through observing her from afar, hidden in plain sight as someone she could never love, the protagonist endures two years of longing, devotion, and unseen sacrifice. Every glance, every gesture is filled with the echo of a love that cannot be spoken aloud, a love that can only exist in shadow. And when the truth finally emerges, it shatters what remains, leaving a haunting realization: some loves are destined to be felt, never fully held. Through another life, through loss, through the cruel hands of fate, the story of a love unbroken yet unreachable unfolds-a love that, even in reincarnation, cannot find its ending.
