'And when at last you find someone to whom you feel you can pour out your soul. You stop in shock at the words you utter--They are so rusty, so ugly so meaningless and feeble from being kept t in the small cramped dark inside you so long." Sylvia Plath

His Vows, Her Ruin
She's not naive. She sees the storm in him and chooses to stay - not to fix him, but to remind him that even the wildest storms can calm. He doesn't want her. Doesn't need her. But when she walks into his cold, brutal world... she doesn't shatter. She blooms. And that? Terrifies him more than bullets ever did.Complete

I don't know, I just need to write stuff right now. When you thought you found the one, after all this time, after all the poeple that left, and it turns out, she loves someone else. For when the rain comes, and the hail, and all hell is unleashed, out of nowhere.Complete
The Anatomy Of Us
- She never expected her life to turn this way. A woman devoted to saving lives, a doctor who had sacrificed sleep, sanity, and sometimes even her own happiness, just to keep her patients alive. Every day was a battle against death itself-and often, she lost. Each failure left scars no one could see. And then came Chase. A man draped in darkness, a mafia whose hands were stained with blood. He was everything she despised-ruthless, merciless, a predator in a world where she had vowed to be a healer. Falling in love with someone like him was the last thing she ever wanted. Yet the heart is a traitor. Against her will, against her reason, it beat faster whenever he was near. But fate played cruel games. For the very patients she fought desperately to save, the bodies brought in broken and bleeding... were victims of the very man she loved. His bullets created the wounds she stitched, his violence the cause of the shadows beneath her tired eyes. She asked herself a thousand times- How could she love a monster? And yet, every time she looked at him, she found the answer buried in the silence between them: Because sometimes, the heart chooses even when the soul refuses.
Unkept Promises
"If you really believe in complexity of universe then is it not too plain to think your so called 'soulmate' will be a guy, who lives or works near you, speaks your language? What if he is an old man in Vietnam? Or a woman in Korea? Or a pigeon for that matter?"Complete
