In the quiet of an isolated farmhouse, Ed was raised to obey. To watch. To never want. When he captures the woman his brothers mean to destroy, he does the one thing he was never taught how to do: he chooses her.
What begins as captivity turns into something fragile and forbidden,
But the world beyond the walls is still cruel and the men who took her have not forgotten.
Will she find the strength to escape what she was never meant to survive... or will she choose to stay with the man who became her safest cage?

Lyra the Liar: Little Mouse
In a future of surveillance and control a student's quiet life unravels when she saves a wounded soldier in the woods and protects herself with a single lie. That moment sparks an obsession she doesn't see coming as the cold, calculating commander slowly becomes fixated on the girl. As his watch tightens around her, she builds a fragile shield of half-truths to protect her family and hide her ties to the resistance. But each lie cuts deeper and she must soon decide how far she can bend the truth before they become the bars of her own cage. ~ She cut hard into a narrow passage, shoulder grazing chipped brick, the scrape leaving a chalky smear on her sleeve. The air was stale here, smelling of damp mortar and the sour tang of rain trapped in stone. A thin blade of streetlight knifed through the end of the lane, pale gold against the black, and she fixed on it. Her pulse drove hard enough to thrum in her teeth, rattling through her skull with each step. Then the sound split the night. A Highmarch car came in sideways, metal shrieking as its tir tore across the cobbles. It slid into place, cutting the passage at the throat like a final punctuation mark.

My Shadow Monster
The heavy pouring rain roared against the canopy of ancient oaks and pines, a deafening white noise that swallowed her every sob. Elora stumbled through the undergrowth, but she pulled herself up quickly and started running again. She had been running for twenty minutes. Or maybe it was an hour, she lost track, all her focus was on escaping the monster that had taken over her life slowly and completely, she hadn't even realised it until it was too late. Snap! She heard a dry branch sheltered from the pouring rain snap not far behind her. She froze, her back pressed against the rough, wet bark of a towering tree. She looked left, then right. All she saw were silhouettes of trees that looked like jagged teeth against the gray sky. Then she heard it, his voicing calling out "Run! Elora Run! Run as fast as you want but there is no way out. I own this land, I own this town, I own you!" A flashlight beam cut through the dark, not searching for her, no, but casually illuminating the path for her, as if he already knew exactly where she was hiding. He was tracking her like a prized animal in a private reserve. And then she felt it, the warm breath on her right cheek. -.-.-.-.- New chapters update every Sunday! ~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~ Highest ranking: #2 in chase #2 in stalker #2 in obsessed #3 in twisted #6 in madlove

Bound To Two Shadows
The marriage was decided in a room that smelled of smoke, blood, and old money. She was never asked. To the world beyond the locked gates, the two brothers were monsters-names whispered in fear, kings of an underworld built on extortion, bodies, and silence. The elder brother ruled with a mind like a blade: sharp, cold, precise. He calculated lives the way others counted coins, and mercy was a language he never learned. The younger brother was worse in a different way-raised without softness, trained without restraint. A beast shaped into human form, a killing machine who understood commands better than emotions. She had never seen the outside world. Never felt sunlight without bars between her and the sky. Her life had been a narrow corridor of obedience and bruises, raised by family who taught her silence before speech and pain before hope. She learned early that surviving meant enduring, that breathing quietly was safer than breathing freely. As mentioned the credits: the pictures used in this are not mine and it's right to its respectful owners.

Welcome Home, Kitty: Little Kitten
The heatwave of 1955 didn't just bring cracked roads and heavy air to Maple Hill, it brought Kitty O'Callaghan. Instead of the quiet start she hoped for with her mother, Kitty finds herself trapped under the roof of her stepbrother Johnny - a brooding mechanic who sees in her every trace of the woman he resents. What begins as aggression soon turns to desire. Johnny soon wants more than her fear. He wants her softness, her trust, her heart. And nothing will stand in his way. Not her tears. Not her defiance. Not even her hate. ~ He lowered himself to the edge of the bed, the quilt dipping beneath the weight of his knee. His hand lifted, brushing the stray curl aside, fingertips grazing the smooth line of her cheek. Then he leaned in, his breath warm at her ear. "Kitten..." His voice slipped through the quiet. "Wake up." At first she only stirred, a small sound catching in her throat as her brow drew tight. "C'mon now. Look at me." His hand lingered near her face. Fingertips brushing her cheek once more in a slow movement. Her lashes fluttered once, twice. Then her eyes opened, heavy with sleep. For a second she only stared, unseeing, then the blur sharpened landing seeing his face so close to hers. Her whole body jolted, shoulders driving into the pillow as if to put distance where there was none. Her legs kicked under the blanket, the sheets twisting around her ankles. Her mouth opened, dragging in a sharp, startled breath as a scream began to claw its way up from her chest. But it never made it out, he was ready. His hand clamped down hard over her mouth. Her eyes filled with instant panic. She froze. Then fought.
