Arielle once believed love was supposed to feel like urgency - breathless, bright, impossible to hold without burning. She gave her heart young, fiercely, thinking intensity meant destiny.

But life taught her something quieter:
sometimes the real breaking isn't loud - it's slow, invisible, and lonely.

Now she's rebuilding.
Not chasing closure... becoming it.

There is someone from her past - a memory shaped like a first love, returning not to reclaim what once was, but to acknowledge what can never be again.

And there is someone in her present - steady hands, quiet mornings, laughter that doesn't demand, warmth offered without rush - a presence that feels like safety instead of rescue.

Yet this isn't a love triangle.
It's a woman learning she is not choosing between two men -
she is choosing herself, and the life she wants to grow into.

Healing doesn't roar here.
It whispers.
It rests.
It rebuilds.

This is a story of:

• love that once burned
• love that now breathes
• and a heart learning the difference

Not every ending is explosive.
Some are soft.
Some are earned in silence.
Some aren't endings at all - just beginnings with the lights turned on.

A romance about growing up, letting go, and finding love that feels like peace - not proof.

THAT ONE NIGHT LOVE by thespianmoon

It was just one night. One room. No promises. No confessions. Just two people- who should've walked away. But something about the way they looked at each other... The way silence held more meaning than words ever could... Made that night less of a mistake and more of a memory neither body could forget. Now, two years later, they're back. In the same city. Under different names. Carrying the same ache. She has someone new. He almost moved on. But love doesn't always announce itself- sometimes it just lingers. What happens when: - a closed room remembers what the world forced them to forget? - bodies touch again, but hearts hesitate harder? - one mug, one bed, one white shirt brings everything rushing back? "Unfinished things don't die. They wait. In bedrooms like this - with people like us." 🌙 A poetic, slow-burn Hinglish story. Of what was never said, what was never supposed to happen, and what still might - if they dare.

The Way We Mend | Book 1 | Author AifiHwa by AifiHwa

"I didn't want this to burn out too fast. I wanted it to last, slow and steady, a burning ember that glowed for eternity." She's breaking under expectations. He's suffocating under love. Valeriana has spent her whole life performing as the perfect daughter while quietly falling apart under the weight of never being enough. Darius grew up in warmth and freedom, only to find that too much love can also be a cage. At Ceridian University, Valeriana just wants to survive another semester. Darius just wants to do his job and keep his heart out of it. But when their paths cross; the tutor sessions, quiet teasing, dinners, and moments that weren't supposed to matter turns into something neither expected. A bond built on shared exhaustion and unspoken care. They teach each other how to breathe again. How to laugh when the world feels too heavy. How to love without needing to be perfect. But as their connection deepens, so does the fear of losing control, of being too much, of not being enough. Because love, for them, isn't a rescue. It's a slow unravelling. A choice to stay when it would be easier to run. "The Way We Mend" is a tender, slow-burn romance about burnout, healing, and the quiet courage of being seen and loved as you are. {This is an original work written by me. I only upload this on Wattpad.} [Updates: 3 times a week] Illustrations page for the webnovel: https://www.instagram.com/hemlosa.my

His Silence, My Storm: Loving In Shadows by manahilalihere

They never spoke. They never touched. Yet something between them burned-slowly, silently-like a prayer that heaven refused to hear. This isn't a love story carved in sweet endings. It's a wound disguised as a heartbeat- a storm that lived, raged, and died quietly inside one girl's chest. She watched him when the world wasn't watching. She memorized the way he breathed, the way he existed like poetry that was never meant for her- while she stayed hidden in the quiet corners of his life. She felt everything. He remained untouched. He was distant, untouchable- a star she was never meant to hold. Yet to her, he was the gravity that held her together... and the force that tore her apart. This isn't a story about being seen. It's about loving someone so fiercely, so sacredly in silence, that even absence began to feel like a presence. Because some stories are too raw to be told, too holy to be spoken aloud- they exist only in stolen glances, in the quiet ache of never being enough. ~~~ His Silence, My Storm: Loving in Shadows A haunting tale of unspoken love, quiet obsession, and a girl who shattered beautifully for a boy who never knew she was breaking.

Wounded Heart ✔ by Ruhi_93

She loved him with a devotion deeper than breath itself. He was her heartbeat, her soul's anchor. But he belonged to someone else. "He is my breath, and I will forget him when I forget to breathe." Her memories were hers alone-precious, untouchable, unshared. Even if the world told her to forget, she clung to the fragments of a love that was never hers to keep. Until fate bound her to the same man whose heart had long been buried with another. "I married you to fulfil my Aashi's last wish. You will never belong here." His cruelty was a shield for his grief. Her silence was armor for her pain. Yet somewhere between bitterness and heartbreak, something unexpected sparked-something fragile, something forbidden. But when apologies come too late and confessions fall on a heart turned to stone, love risks becoming nothing more than ashes. She walks away, her love long faded. He stands shattered, vowing to fight for her, to heal her, to burn himself if it means rekindling the fire in her heart. Even if it destroys him.

Little Light (GxG) by special_anonym

In a world that moves too fast, she's learning to breathe slowly. To feel again. To let someone touch the parts of her she thought were long gone. There are no crowns here. No thrones. Just the quiet war of learning how to be held without flinching. She doesn't beg for safety. She creates it in silence. And when she kneels, it's not for weakness- it's because she trusts. But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence. This isn't where the pain begins. It's where it learns to rest. ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ : EMOTIONAL INTIMACY SUBSPACE SLOW-BURN HEALING TRIGGERING THEMES (VULNERABILITY, TRUST, PAST TRAUMA) 🔴 Tops: 🔴 1.

Unwritten Pages by ItsImagine_07

I was never meant to stand out. Just a quiet guy in a crowded world-walking hallways, reading books I never cared about, watching people laugh from a distance. Then one day... she forgot her book in the library, Hana. She didn't say much. She never smiled. But for the first time, I saw someone who felt like a reflection of me - Alone. Detached. Tired. I don't know why I picked up her book, but I did. And that one, simple decision? It changed everything. This isn't some perfect love story. We didn't fall fast. We just... found each other-in the silence, in the grief, in the little moments most people overlook. This is about loneliness. About losing everything. About finding someone when you've stopped looking. And about learning to live, even when your days are numbered. This is our story. These are our... Unwritten Pages.

The Chaos We Called LOVE by kandy7_official

In a cold city, on a rain-soaked day, two warm-hearted souls collide - and their first meeting is anything but gentle. He's handsome, charming, and adored - the national heartthrob and current chocolate boy of the Indian cricket team. Cricket is his first love, the only rhythm he's ever lived by. Until he meets her. She's the queen of her own world - a renowned CEO and CTO of one of India's most prestigious companies. A psychologist by birth and a technologist by heart, she believes in logic over love, in purpose over passion. To her, love is a myth... until destiny proves otherwise. If even their best friends carry such magnetic energy, imagine the storm when these two worlds collide. Have you ever believed in love at first sight? That rare, 90's kind of love we all secretly long for in the 21st century - the kind that feels impossible... until it happens. But what if it happens between two high-profile lives standing under different skies? He's the man every camera follows, yet haunted by one face. She's the woman the world admires, yet unknown in her own heart. Will he wait for the one who slipped away? Will she ever remember the man who changed her silence? Can love survive fame, distance, and reason itself? Sometimes, love doesn't arrive politely - it storms in, unexpected, uninvited, unforgettable. This is the story of a national hero and a soft-spoken, introverted psychologist-turned-tech leader - two opposites who weren't searching for love, but found it in the chaos of silence. Their fates crossed once in the rain. What follows is everything that silence never dared to say.

The Devil's Crybaby by Alywinter

A man stormed in with a gun. She was shot. She lived, but the part of her that trusted life didn't. After that, she became careful. She avoided crowds. Sudden movements made her freeze. She spent more time alone because it felt easier than being around people who didn't understand what had happened to her. Life became smaller, but it felt safer that way. Then one night, someone came for her. He took her from her bed without explaining who he was. He kept her moving, kept her close, and kept his distance at the same time. A man who lived by rules she didn't understand and fear she couldn't escape. Everything about him screamed danger, yet he never touched her without reason. Never spoke more than necessary. He lived for one person only. Everything he did was for his brother. His brother had lost an eye years ago because of him, and he treated that loss like something he could never make right. He followed his brother's orders without thinking about the consequences. When his brother wanted something, he made it happen. Eliza asked questions. Tried to understand what she had been pulled into. The man who kidnapped her protected her but never from the truth. In the silence he left behind, she started filling in the gaps herself. She told herself he wouldn't protect her if she didn't matter. She told herself that the way he stayed close meant something. When she finally learns the reason she was taken, it doesn't come gently. It strips away everything she believed and leaves her facing the fact that she was never chosen. She was a promise. A problem someone else decided to solve. Two brothers want different things from her. One wants to own her. One never planned to keep her. Around them is a world where violence is normal, where people disappear without anyone asking questions, and where some men hunt for reasons that have nothing to do with survival. This is not a story about being saved.
