Different stories, different fates, different lessons. This is a collection of my short stories, one-shots, and flash fiction that introduces you to different perspectives and aims to share meaningful messages about love and life. - Sometimes, we just need a story that allows us to feel the things that make us human. That vulnerability, the warmth...I hope you could feel them through my pieces. May the words from these stories reach and embrace the depths of you. Like a hug from someone you need to feel alive again, the kind that gives you the strength to try and face everything once more. Note that: Some of the stories you'll find here were written a few years ago (around 2020-2022), some previously, and all are compiled here. They are not sorted by date or in any particular order (except for those with several parts), so I can't say the ones on the first pages were the first ones I wrote. I might put here some of my upcoming or soon-to-be-written short stories as well. So you can always pick randomly and read. Enjoy reading! I do not solely own the book cover I used. I utilized and edited the elements from Canva. All credit goes to the rightful owner. - airis, 2023
Three Letters, Painful Meaning: BYE. [COMPLETED ✔] by ajiya_marie
40 parts Complete
[COMPLETED] Note: under editing! Love, memories, and pain. Those three words sometimes are the meaning of a relationship. The love you have for each other. The memories you make together and the pain you felt in any problems you encounter alone... or together. Pain in a relationship is unexpected, you don't know when will it come.. when will it happen, and what will be the cause. Sometimes, battles are the cause of pain in a relationship. In this world full of battles, Love is the most powerful weapon. But what if love makes you the weakest person on the battlefield, will you still fight? Will you continue? What if the one that you love left you in a world full of struggles and battles? Can you still face the battlefield and move forward? Can you still fight, without love? Warning!: {involves curses, grammatical errors and incorrect spellings! I wrote this back in 2020, and by that time I wasn't really good in creating such story. Thus, this story might be beyond your expectations.} Started: January 15, 2020 Ended: September 28, 2020

BROKEN HOPE (Lucas & Emilia Book 2) by ArianaClarkAuthor
39 parts Complete Mature
I was so damn naive it's no wonder I've ended up here. Kidnapped by the man who promised me forever, just as I'd begun to understand the depths of his betrayal. It's a sad truth I didn't marry my husband for love. I married him for the life he promised to provide, and if I'm honest with myself, I married him in hopes one day he'd fill the void Lucas-my first love-left behind. Now after so many years, they're both back. And in my desperation to feel loved, to be wanted and chosen I've walked straight into this trap. All because I forgot life's harshest lesson... I'm not enough. No matter how much or how fiercely I love, the choice will never be me. Especially now. Surrounded by danger and at the mercy of my husband's enemies, I'm forced to face one final bit of truth. Much like love, hope is for the weak. I was a fool to believe in the vows and promises they made. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 2 of Lucas & Emilia's Broken Redemption arc. For the complete experience, start with Book 1: Broken Vows.

"You're not here to fall in love." "Trust me, sir... I don't even know what that means." She was sold like a possession-traded away by the very people who were supposed to protect her. At just seventeen, she finds herself in a cold, unfamiliar mansion owned by a powerful man known for his silence, strict rules, and a heartbreak he never talks about. His only condition? Take care of his one-year-old daughter. Don't speak unless spoken to. Don't enter his study. Never touch him. For her, following orders is nothing new. Obedience has kept her alive this long. But the baby's soft cries break something inside her, and her tender touch begins to warm a house that forgot what love felt like. He tells himself she's just a caretaker. Just a temporary solution. But night after night, she shatters rule after rule... And soon, his heart becomes the final one to break. 🎯 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐞 Genre: Romance / Drama / Slow Burn / Hurt-Comfort Age rating: 16+ (emotional abuse themes, mature emotional content)
