[ENGLISH] Love & other DRUGS by AidaMorenoFernandez

They say that in life, we all have three great loves. The first arrives in adolescence-innocent, filled with dreams and illusions. The second teaches you pain, and you cling to it even knowing it was never meant to be. It's the kind of love you once wished would last forever, but instead, it helped you grow. The third love is the one you never saw coming. You let it happen without expectations-just you, allowing yourself to be surprised. It's the love that heals old wounds and makes you genuinely happy. It's the love that teaches you how to love for real. It's the true one. This story is dedicated to all those still carrying wounds from that second love. Don't be afraid to move forward. Don't shut your heart, even if it's in a thousand pieces. Something better is coming.

Fifty Dollars, Fifteen Cents ✓ by McSidney

She's insane, she's sane. She's broken, she's unfixed. She loved, and now hates. She's in despair with a flicker of hope. She's bent on revenge, but she longs to be free from such a pledge. She is Naomi, and she is coming for him. Naomi lost everything before she even had the chance to ask how and why: money, children and even her husband. It was a clean sweep that kept her in an asylum for more than a year. After escaping a mental institution and its suffocating environment, she sorted out a job on the streets, and ended up working between shades, lies, and twists, just to meet her needs, and gather enough to exert revenge on the person who set her life in its current state. When she finally meets him face to face, fate plays forth another card, and she falls for him instead, which also leads to her finding the most painful truth about her family.
