"Pretty things break easily, Deci, it's a hard truth you're just going to have to accept." He sneered, gripping my throat tighter as he pressed me against the bathroom door, his dark eyes glazed over. My vision began to darken, the edges furling like the ears of well read book. I gasped, fighting against his hold, nails digging into the flesh of his arm, trying to speak past the burning sensation devouring my trachea. "Pretty things shatter, December, and you're going to see that they don't get fixed."

*

December Dixon is broken. After a horrific four year relationship with a tragic end, she's left with scars, both mental and physical. The woman coming back isn't anything like the girl who left; December returns in pieces, one her family can't quite piece back together. However, Cade Rains, the man who didn't quite let go of the love of his life, steps in to mend her broken heart. But can he make her see past the damage that's been done?

She looks at me incredulously, "Love her?" "Panic attacks, stress disorders, and anxiety. What's not love?" I reply. Spencer Evans is broken. Though people don't realize it because she doesn't look it, she's broken. Almost completely. Now she's going to pull herself back together. To keep people believing that she's perfectly fine. Inside and out. --- Fair Warning: this story was originally written for an English class and it just went on from there. Some of the writing may not be the best, because it is unedited and was originally written back in 2015-16 so.. yeah. Also, it may have some swearing.

WOUNDS THAT NEVER HEAL || tommy shelby x reader by lightyaers

PAINTING IT ALL RED: PART ONE WOUNDS THAT NEVER HEAL: PART TWO "It'll do you well not to speak to me like that, young lady," Young lady. Typical. "It'll do you well not to talk down on me, Mr Kinsmen. I own this establishment, me and me alone. I own it legitimately, inside the law, and it is mine," He stayed silent as you continued. "If anything threatens that, I will take legal action. I am secure. I am protected- And you don't want to see me mad, Mr Kinsmen. You really don't," After leaving Birmingham, you thought that it would be easy to move on. Even if you're still plagued with dreams, even if you still think about the Shelby's from time to time, you knew that you'd be better off after you left it all behind. Two years later, time eventually catches up with you-- The Shelby's come back into your life in the worst of circumstances.

Why don't you believe?" I ask whilst clenching the cross necklace that laid around my neck. "God has the ability to heal the world so if he exists why doesn't he? Why does he let innocent people suffer just to spite the ones doing wrong? Why would he leave two young boys motherless and then parentless? Why does character building mean going through shit?" Holden's voice cracks and I see his lips quiver, he looks away avoiding my gaze. In that moment I knew he needed comforting and sometimes that doesn't mean words, so I laid my head on his shoulder and took his hand in mine letting him know if all else goes wrong, I'll always be there for him. __________________________________ Addison Mills just had her life turned upside down, from the death of her mother to leaving the only home she's ever known and Micah, the man she loved. Things look bleek until Holden Daze , an adrenalin junkie that moonlights as the perfect southern gentleman becomes her safe haven in a unfamiliar place. As the two try to navigate their way through senior year, hidden truths begin to surface and dark forces dare to tear them apart. Will their bond be strong enough to overcome life's challenges? Or will this be another tradegy added to the history books?

Surrender Or Drown The Siren and The Dark Horse Trilogy: Book One. by BrittWadsworth

Complete-BUT still under editing/Polishing/and some revision towards the end. Bella moved to West Virginia to escape a monster. Brandon went to escape himself. She is fire wrapped in thorns. She's sharp, untouchable, and running from a past that refuses to die. He is leather and silence. He's scarred, and grounded, a boy who learned long ago to feel nothing at all. When their worlds collide, numbness is no longer an option. And control isn't in either of their hands. She makes him feel. He makes her breathe. The more they fight it, the more it consumes them. But what's worse is they're left to accept that some things are terrifyingly inevitable. Because love isn't their biggest risk... obsession is. To survive, Bella and Brandon must choose: let someone else in... or die trying. When a raven meets a dove, surrender might be the only way to survive. This is a haunting, slow-burn dark romance with a psychological thriller edge. Two broken souls bound trauma and nightmares find common ground in one thing-each other. Steamy. Sweet. Thrilling. Action-packed with plot twists and a love that doesn't just pull you in-but keeps you locked in. Intimate and emotional and definitely written for a mature audience. Book one of S.O.D is packed with just enough dark humor to keep you scrolling until 3 a.m. My fresh take on cliche dark romance. •All rights and words/ideas/characters belong to me, the author. Please respect this and do not plagiarize.

Trusting Grace by ilovefelix217

"I've been burned once, who is to say it will not happen again" I spoke quietly watching her closely. Grace confused me like no other she wormed her way into my heart with her easy-going smiles, kind nature, and gentle heart. Feeling her small hands hold my large ones I glance down into her green eyes "You need to trust that I am not Mia have I not proven to you Cassian, I am here to stay you fit with me" she said in a gentle yet firm tone. The smile she sent me held love, comfort and that was all it took after months of breaking down the walls I decided to take a leap of faith. *********************************************** Cassian Grey had been burned once and that was enough for him after sharing a business deal with his four other brothers they opened up The Grey Gull on the coast of Cornwall, England. A fresh start is what these guys needed and a fresh start is what they will get. Grace Bauer is an art historian with her own little gallery where she brings long-forgotten pieces of beauty back to life. She too had been burned so when she hears of this bar and grill opening up she knows her friends are just dying to try it out. What both of these souls don't realize is that once thrown in each other's paths they soon realize that maybe just maybe they are what the other half needs in one another. It may take a little more convincing on Cassian's part but can he take that leap of faith and trust Grace. All rights are reserved names of places mentioned in this book are all real places however the story line and names of the characters are all from my own ideas. Please do not copy my story under any given circumstances as I do not want to have to take legal action but I will if required. I come on here because I love writing and I love writing books that I myself would love to read and continue to read to find out the outcome. Updates every M, T, W, T, F, S :)

Shutter & Silk (A Tere Bin AU Fanfiction) by desicroissant

Some walls aren't meant to stay up forever. Meerab Malik has spent a decade perfecting the art of keeping her emotions close to her chest. She's successful, independent, and completely over her first heartbreak-or so she thinks. But when fate brings her face-to-face with her family friend, the reason why her heart broke into pieces all those years ago, the years of careful emotional construction threaten to come undone. Murtasim Khan remembers the brilliant girl who used to hide behind books and oversized clothes. What he doesn't expect is the stunning woman who can hold her own in designer clothing and sharp comebacks. Intrigued by her transformation and determined to scratch this new veneer, he's not backing down-even when she acts more adversarial than friendly. When old wounds resurface alongside undeniable attraction, Meerab must decide whether to risk her carefully guarded heart. Will she let herself be drawn into his world-deeper than she ever imagined, faster than she's prepared for? Or will the memory of being invisible to him prove stronger than the fire burning between them now? **This story will eventually have mature themes. Please read at your own discretion.**

Finding November Grace by Blair-Jade

STORY 4 BOOK 2 of Loving November Grace Five years ago I was swept up in this storm. The storm of him. And for a beautiful second, our clouds, they collided. Our skin hydrated. Loving the way the rain felt across our nerves. The electricity, the lightning burning us. And this storm it broke and fixed me all at once. It tore down everything in it's path, destroyed walls and melted ice I thought was forever going to be inside of me, but it also nurtured my heart and I grew. I grew and I survived everything after; all the consequences of loving him. We survived. I was left with memories, and imprints that only whispered to be heard. And even they faded over the years. I wasn't ever going to see him again and that was okay. It was okay until it wasn't. Until it wasn't a reality. And he walked right into my little coffee shop. Because when two points are destined to touch, when paths are pushed together, forced to cross- There's no rule that they only cross once. If the universe wants it, it will always find a way to make the connection. Cole and I lost each other, and I thought that was fate, that is what was destined for us. It was the safest thing for us all. It still is. And that is fine. But when we did meet again, all those years later- it wasn't. Nothing at all was fine. There are so many reasons why I should have stayed away, so many reasons why that fire, that fire should have gone out by now, and nothing but ash should be left. Yet it burned. Us. Them. It was destructive and neither of us even wanted it. But. It's us. Our hearts are old friends, our skin, etched with each other's fingertips.

The Way We Mend | Book 1 | Author AifiHwa by AifiHwa

"I didn't want this to burn out too fast. I wanted it to last, slow and steady, a burning ember that glowed for eternity." She's breaking under expectations. He's suffocating under love. Valeriana has spent her whole life performing as the perfect daughter while quietly falling apart under the weight of never being enough. Darius grew up in warmth and freedom, only to find that too much love can also be a cage. At Ceridian University, Valeriana just wants to survive another semester. Darius just wants to do his job and keep his heart out of it. But when their paths cross; the tutor sessions, quiet teasing, dinners, and moments that weren't supposed to matter turns into something neither expected. A bond built on shared exhaustion and unspoken care. They teach each other how to breathe again. How to laugh when the world feels too heavy. How to love without needing to be perfect. But as their connection deepens, so does the fear of losing control, of being too much, of not being enough. Because love, for them, isn't a rescue. It's a slow unravelling. A choice to stay when it would be easier to run. "The Way We Mend" is a tender, slow-burn romance about burnout, healing, and the quiet courage of being seen and loved as you are. {This is an original work written by me.
