This story is about Ileri, a 14-year-old Nigerian Christian who moves to France and discovers herself. It is a story about discovering one's identity. It's a reflection of my own journey of self-discovery and identity, so please don't get offended by the early stages of the book. I was young, naïve, and clueless about the forms love can take. I hope you enjoy this book as I enjoyed writing it.

Meher~ The sister they buried alive
They said she didn't try. They said she chose herself. They said she was the reason their parents died. So they threw her out... like she never belonged. Three years ago, Meher lost everything in a single night-her parents, her home, and the only people she ever called her world... her brothers. Meher was the last person who saw them alive. She promised to save them. But she failed. And they believed she never tried. But what if the story they believed... was never the truth? When fate brings her back into their lives at a wedding that was never meant to reunite them, old wounds begin to bleed again, truths start to surface, and hearts that once loved... begin to shatter all over again. Because sometimes, the one you hate the most...is the one you never stopped loving. And sometimes, the biggest misunderstanding... costs you everything.
The Sister They Left Behind
"They didn't stop loving her... They just stopped believing her." Ruhanika Rajvansh-Ruhi-wasn't just the only sister of the Rajvansh brothers; she was their heartbeat, their happiness, and the little princess they had once sworn to protect forever. Until one lie changed everything. At the age of twelve, Ruhi was accused of a mistake she never committed. The five brothers who had once promised to stand beside her chose silence over trust and punishment over love. Without listening to her, they sent her away, believing they were teaching their stubborn little sister a lesson. But they never realized... They weren't sending away a mistake. They were leaving behind the soul of their family. Ten years later, the innocent little girl is gone. In her place stands Ruhanika Rajvansh-a world-renowned fashion designer, the CEO of a global fashion empire, and a woman who has built a life without the people who once meant everything to her. When destiny brings the Rajvansh family back into her life, the truth they buried for years finally comes to light. She was innocent. Now, the brothers who once let her go are willing to sacrifice everything to bring their sister home. But what if "home" no longer exists for her? What if someone else has already become her family? And what if the only person who can reach the broken pieces of her heart is the man who lovingly calls her... "Rooh." A heart-wrenching story of unconditional love, shattered trust, unbearable regret, healing, and second chances-where some promises are broken, some bonds are tested, and some scars never truly fade.Complete
Ms. Sinclair's Secret
| teacher x student | wxw | slow burn | When 19-year-old Lena James enters English Literature class, she expects nothing special. Instead, she meets Ms. Sinclair her cold, sharp-tongued British literature teacher. Elegant, cutting, and unbearably superior. From the very first lesson, the 34-year-old woman seems to take pleasure in dismantling Lena's every opinion with cruel precision. Lena hates her. She hates the condescending red marks on her essays, the raised eyebrow that makes her feel small, and the way Ms. Sinclair lingers in her thoughts long after class ends. But hate this intense has a way of twisting into something far more dangerous. With a strict 15-year age gap and an unbreakable teacher-student boundary, their slow-burning tension threatens to break every rule both in literature and in real life. Some lessons aren't taught kindly. And some hatreds taste too much like desire. "Ms. Sinclair's Secret"![မိုးဦးရင်၀ယ် ကာရံငယ် [ Completed ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/410383430-256-k673160.jpg)

The Silent Sister
Alessandra has never believed in safety. Life never gave her a reason to. Pain carved her childhood, silence became her armor, and trust? That was a luxury she could never afford. So when she runs -- bloody, broken, and barely breathing, she doesn't expect saving. She certainly doesn't expect to be taken in by a family dripping in wealth and power and. . . warmth? A mother who refuses to give up on her. A father who watches like he's waiting for her to let him in. And six brothers. Rough. Protective. Complicated. Brothers, who don't know what to do with a sister who won't speak. She doesn't know how to trust. How to believe that maybe not everyone wants to hurt her. Every instinct tells her to run. To shut down. But they don't let her go. Not when she flinches. Not when she hides. Not even when she breaks. Happiness is for other people, or that's what she believes. But when love comes wrapped in gentle patience and fierce protection, when hands reach for her without demand, when hearts break themselves wide open just to hold her... she starts to wonder. Can a girl stitched together with silence and fear ever belong in a family built on love? Can she stand tall when the ghosts of her past refuse to let go? And when danger claws its way back into her life, threatening everything she's come to know... will she find her voice, or will she shatter all over again? Trigger Warnings: Child abuse. Violence. Addiction. Panic attacks. SA. Self-harm. Death, and more.
Held in Violent Hands
"Fine," she said. "If you won't take me seriously like this, I'll go put on my mafia outfit." Sloane squinted at her. "Your what?" "My mafia outfit." Before either of them could stop her, Lila jumped off the bed and ran out of the room. ____ Three minutes later, Lila came back. And Blair nearly spat out her coffee. Because apparently, "mafia outfit" meant she had dressed entirely in black-black cargo pants, a black long-sleeve shirt, black socks, and... Sunglasses. Inside. At breakfast time. Lila stood in the doorway like she had just stepped out of the world's least threatening action movie. "Well?" Sloane looked at her for a long moment. Then at Blair. Then back at Lila. "...No." Lila frowned. "What do you mean no?!" "I mean you look like a twelve-year-old trying to rob a gas station."
