Till Lies Do Us Part
"Sometimes, freedom doesn't begin with walking away-it begins with daring to imagine a life beyond survival." Esther never imagined the vows she spoke in joy would one day feel like chains. To the world, Peter was charming, successful, a man with all the right appearances. Behind closed doors, however, his love was sharp, his words cutting, his hands heavy. For years, Esther endured in silence, believing sacrifice was the cost of marriage and motherhood. Until the silence grew too loud, and the bruises-both seen and unseen-too deep. This is not just Esther's story. It is the story of countless women who wrestle between loyalty and survival, love and self-worth, fear and freedom. It is the story of a woman who learns that strength is not in staying broken, but in rising whole. In these pages, you will journey with Esther from the ashes of pain to the rebirth of her freedom song. You will witness betrayal, resilience, the bonds of family, and the kind of love that does not bind but builds. Above all, you will discover what happens when a woman finally dares to say: Enough.Complete

Maryam never had a say. Although her situation wasn't her fault, people never fail to rub it in her face. If she was a child out of wedlock, she wouldn't have been sad. Atleast she'd be paying for her parent's sin. If she was an Almajira, she'd still lift her head up high and accept what ever the world threw at her, atleast she would still be paying for her parent's sin for throwing her out into the streets. If she was a prostitute, Heck! she'd stand proud and tall, atleast it was her decision to sell her body to men. But, she was neither one of this things. She had lost her father, a day before she was born. Her mother got married to someone else a week later! That marriage came with a whole lot of burden.

RESONANCE (Allen x Reader)
A gentle breeze swept through, sending the girl's bangs to softly veil her eyes. She turned to look at Allen, a bittersweet smile touching her lips-one that spoke of farewells unspoken, as if this moment was their last. "Allen " she said quietly, her voice tinged with both hope and sorrow, "Do you believe in destiny? " "No! Don't do this, Y/N! " Allen reached out, desperate to hold her hand, but his grasp met only empty air. She took a step away, her gaze lingering on him. "I want to stay longer with everyone. There are so many things I still want to do-with you. But... I don't think I can walk the path you're on. It never unfolds the way we hope " Her words hung between them like a fragile promise. "Goodbye, Allen " she whispered. And just like that, she was gone-vanishing into the unknown, her departure sealing the final battle once and for all. Rewrite:17/05/2025 End:-

Alters in Her eyes
You think you know who you are until someone shows up and makes you question everything you thought was true. Ajegbemi was solid. Focused. Grounded. Locked in like a warrior on a mission. No distractions. No drama. Then Ademide happened. No big scene. No fireworks. Just a slow, quiet pull ... like the tide creeping up, soft but unstoppable. It wasn't about who they were supposed to be. It wasn't about labels or rules or the noise around them. It was about the small moments that scream louder than words: a glance, a brush, a silence charged with meaning. This story? It's about what happens when your heart flips the script. When what you thought was impossible becomes the only thing you want. And once the fire starts, it doesn't care if you're ready.
