How can I keep my heart safe? How can I let myself leave that area I call comfort zone. What should I do with the introduction of this emotion Im not familiar with?
I am Lianneth Adalfieri Devon, a hidden daughter, a bestfriend, entrepreneur and a slight frustrated artist. I always wanted a simple life which I am in control of but a part of my past that I had long forgotten is now chasing me that made my life a sweet wreck. Is it already a mess or it just made it complete, I really wonder.

Between Hate and Heat
Rebecca Patricia Armstrong - daughter of Thailand's most powerful and wealthiest businessman. At 20, she's a second-year International Business Management student living a life most girls can only dream of. With ethereal beauty, an enviable lifestyle, and a presence that commands every room, she's that girl - powerful, untouchable, and just a little dangerous. But beneath the perfect facade lies an attitude sharper than glass - sassy, cocky, and unapologetically harsh. Freen Sarocha Chankimha, a stunning and cold fourth-year Civil Engineering student whose life couldn't be more different from theirs. Orphaned at 15 after a tragic plane crash and abandoned by her mother, Freen was taken in by the Armstrongs thanks to her father's close friendship with them. Rebecca despised her from the start. For reasons Freen never understood, Rebecca turned her life into a battlefield - picking fights, blaming her for things she didn't do, and constantly reminding her she didn't belong. Freen endured it all in silence, hiding behind walls built high and strong, her cool composure and effortless beauty making her a paradox that fascinated everyone... including Rebecca, though she'd never admit it. Freen's plan was simple: graduate, leave the Armstrongs, and never look back. Rebecca's plan? Keep hating her. Or so she thought - until one spark changes everything. Because when fire meets ice, someone's bound to melt... and neither of them is ready for what comes next. (G!P)
Is this a bestfriend love?
So here's the thing: I met this girl. I never expected to be this close to her. Eventually, she became my bestfriend. All I know is that when I'm around her, I have this funny feeling of having butterflies in my stomach and I'm very happy to be with her. I get excited when I see her or when I hear her name. Am I slowly falling in love with this girl? I think I am. But the scary thought of telling her my true feelings is haunting me every night. Not knowing what might her reaction be. Will she tell me she loves me too? Or will she turn around and walk out of my life for good? I'll never know the answer to that unless I take the risk.Complete

My Wife, The Cop!
Freen's POV - 6 years ago* "You're late, Sarocha!" I rushed into the charity gala, still in uniform. Everyone else looked fancy. I looked like I'd just arrested someone. Which I had. Then I saw her. Beautiful girl in a black dress, surrounded by boring old men. She looked... trapped. Like she'd rather be anywhere else. "That's Becky Armstrong," Nam whispered. "Armstrong Industries princess. Way out of your league." But something about how alone she looked... "I'm gonna talk to her." "FREEN, NO!" Too late. I was already walking over. "Ms. Armstrong? I'm Officer Freen Sarocha. Want to get some air?" She turned, brown eyes meeting mine, and smiled. A real smile. "I thought you'd never ask." --- Freen's POV - Present day I stare at the old photo on my desk. Becky and me, laughing at some café. So young. So happy. So unaware of what was coming. Five years since everything fell apart. My phone buzzes. Officer Sarocha? This is Richard Armstrong. We need your help. It's about my granddaughter... Roni. The daughter I've never met. "I'll be right there." I look at the photo one more time. Are you ready to see her again, Freen? No. But a child is missing. And despite everything, I'd still do anything for Becky. Even if it destroys me all over again.Complete

Mitchell's Power Play
I had been second best all my life. But this time, when it comes to her, I'm not willing to accept defeat. I'll do whatever it takes to get her to choose me. *** Having a best friend that was wildly popular, and one of the best hockey players in the United American Hockey League, was both a curse and a blessing. On the plus side, I got to play hockey with my best friend, and there was never a shortage of beautiful girls. At least there wasn't until Nash decided to man up and tell his childhood friend that he'd always loved her. The bad part was that I usually ended up being second best. In my late teens and early twenties I hadn't cared that I wasn't picked in the first round of the draft, or that sponsors chose Nash ahead of me, or even if I ended up with a girl who didn't really want me for me. I made a nice living playing hockey. I had a few good friends and a nice place to live in the middle of Manhattan. Despite not being the best, I'd made most of my dreams come true and it was a far stretch from the lonely kid I'd been growing up in the rural Midwest. I was happy. I was content. Until her.... It's not like I didn't want what Nash had. I did. I do. Who doesn't want a happily ever after? It's just that I've never taken the risk and allowed a woman to see past my defenses before, to see the real me, with my baggage and all my insecurities... until now. As scary as that is in itself, what makes it complicated is that my new roommate, Jackson - who I offered my spare bedroom to a while back when he needed a place to stay - and Bryce - one of my friends and teammates- also seem to have an interest in her... the woman who has me questioning all my decisions. The thing is... I'm pretty sure I'm not willing to be a second choice this time around...Complete![Across the Globe [COMPLETE]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/243487853-256-k420544.jpg)
Across the Globe [COMPLETE]
"Two best friends, a trip through a mystical land, and a stranger that will change it all." Trying to figure out if she chose the right career, dealing with a broken heart, keeping up with uni papers and work... That's already enough of a challenge that stresses out this 20 year old control-freak. So add a whole bunch of family secrets, a trip overseas with her best friend, and some eerie flashbacks, and you get a hell of an adventure. [This is a new adult/magical realism novel] -------- FINISHED STORY! ! Aprox 100.000 words Warning: Contains coarse language, and non-explicit adult scenes. NOTE: After writing this, I noticed a whole lot of problems in my own writing. There are issues I opened up in this tale because I wanted to dig deeper, and never did. I noticed my own internalized phobias when reading, and please, if anyone feels offended or triggered about any of it, call me out. I'm trying to do better. It might have bad rep or offensive content that I'm looking into. This story will be completely re-written once I figure some things out. Also, I know the culture explored in this book (maori culture) is not my own, but after living for many years in New Zealand, I feel that it's part of me, and by no means did I mean this to be offensive to anyone. I hope it's not. I intended this as a "tribute" to a culture that I found rich, enlightening, and that accepted me with open arms.Complete
She Came for Him, Stayed for Her!
Freen Sarocha Chakminha didn't believe in love anymore. Not the kind that stayed. Not the kind that healed. She believed in control, in silence, in the armor she'd built from betrayal and ambition. Love was a transaction. Touch was temporary. And people-people always wanted something. Until the girl showed up at her door. Rain-soaked, trembling, eyes wide with heartbreak and hope. Rebecca Armstrong. Pregnant. Homeless. Carrying the child of Freen's brother-the same brother who vanished with her money and left chaos in his wake. Freen should have turned her away. She almost did. But something in Becky's voice-raw, unfiltered, painfully honest-cut through the walls Freen had spent years fortifying. She let her in. Not just into her house. Into her life. Into the quiet spaces she never let anyone see. And slowly, without permission, Becky began to unravel her. Not with grand gestures. But with soup and silence. With late-night study sessions and soft laughter. With the kind of love that didn't demand-but stayed. This isn't a story about perfect people. It's a story about broken ones who chose each other anyway. About fire inherited not from blood, but from survival. And how sometimes, the coldest hearts burn the brightest-when someone finally sees them.Complete
