"In every living and nonliving, there exists a heart."
Logically speaking, this statement does not hold truth in our world.
Tell someone this and it's guaranteed that they would dismiss it to be nothing more than a work of your imagination. Regardless of how much evidence you have that could further support this claim, be it scientific or not, in the end-there's no hope.
There won't be a single person who will dare to believe. Yet, if there's one thing that we can all agree, it is that the role of a heart is significant. Shapes, ages, gender and the complexion of your skin-these factors don't matter. Because in the end, we all need hearts to survive.
This includes cities as well.
That's right. Cities.
For a human, a heart takes the form of a muscle organ.
Cities are much different.
Their heart is human.

My Summer Crush
Have you ever fallen in love for the first time? Well... I haven't - not until he came into my life. They say love happens when you least expect it - when your heart suddenly beats like a ticking time bomb, and you don't even know why. That's when you realize... you're in love. 💞 But what if you already felt that spark - and instead of confessing, you stayed quiet because you were scared? Scared that you're too young. Scared to ruin what's already there. Scared to lose him. Love can really be funny sometimes. Girls hide their feelings out of fear, while boys pretend not to care - because pride gets in the way. And when both stay silent, love turns into a beautiful what-if. But maybe... this story isn't just about "what-ifs." Maybe it's about destiny. Every summer, we meet again. Every time, my heart races the same way. Is it fate... or just another coincidence? I used to believe accidents were dangerous, but ever since I met him, I started to think - maybe some accidents are meant to happen. This is the story of how my summer turned into something unforgettable - the story of laughter, confusion, and a love I never meant to fall into. Will it be destiny that brings us together in the end? Find out in "Summer of Accidental Hearts." 🌸Concluida![Beneath the Noise 1 - [MXM] ✔️](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/401648855-256-k526063.jpg)
Beneath the Noise 1 - [MXM] ✔️
(Completed) Brothers of the Empire Series I've never been entirely sure where I belong. Most days, I exist somewhere between wanting to fit in and wanting to disappear altogether. The world moves too fast, too loud, too bright, too full of unspoken rules that everyone seems to understand but me. So I stand there, another face in the crowd, pretending the thrum of the music doesn't make my chest ache, pretending the lights don't burn when they hit just right. But that night wasn't about pretending. It wasn't loud or dramatic. It was quiet, a small break in the noise where something inside me shifted. Life never warns you when someone important is about to enter your world. They simply appear, slipping into your orbit so softly you almost miss it. That's how it began for me. One night. One unexpected moment. And the start of everything that followed. --------------------------- Author's Notes This story is told in short chapters, with many moments that build gradually over time. While it can be read as a standalone, it serves as the first book in the Brothers of the Empire series, offering deeper insight into the characters, their histories, and the overarching timeline. The series consists of seven books, each to be released only after the previous installment is completed. 🏆 Rankings & Achievements 🥇 #1 (Slow) - 09/07/2026 🥇 #1 (Family) - 08/04/2026 🥇 #1 (Spanish) - 06/01/2026 🥇 #1 (Mexico) - 09/11/2025 🥇 #1 (Autism) - 12/11/2025 🥈 #1 (Burn) - 09/07/2026 🥉 #3 (Fast) - 09/07/2026 🥉 #3 (Mlm) - 10/02/2026 🥉 #3 (Burn) - 04/01/2026 #4 (Struggles) - 09/07/2026 #19 (BxB) - 29/10/2025Concluida
Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Concluida
Putting The Pieces back Together
Hi all, this is my first official post of a book I wrote years ago! I hope you all enjoy as I was a teen using a pen and paper to express myself. So sorry for any mistakes and typos ! ******8 Time doesn't heal all. No matter how long. The seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years...only equal up to more pain. Time never offers a cure; it gives you all it can. Time. Time to remember. Time to relive. Time to feel every little thing it couldn't erase." Ethan- "Replaying an experience is like reliving it. Every word invites a memory. Every memory invokes a feeling, an emotion. It's impossible to say which hurts more. The first time is unexpected. The second time around you think you'll be ready for it...nothing changes. Everything you felt hits you harder." ********Concluida
(#1) Roommates by Day, Enemies by Night
WARNING: CONTAINING AMOUNTS OF SASS PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN TO MANKIND In the city of NYC--- Ok. Hold up. First of all, New York City. What, are ya gonna assume everyone here knows what NYC is? Anyway, this is about two people. I can almost hear you rolling your eyes. Another cliché teen fiction with a bad boy and a good girl? Nope. This is about superheroes. I can still hear you rolling your eyes. Superheroes. Like in comic books? Like people with super speed and mutant powers? Yes. But this isn't about the fight they have. More about the lives they lead without the masks. But just keep in mind, people who live in the world have all different skin colours. Do not assume my characters are of one unless I state them explicitly. and diversity is welcome here in my novel! Anyhow, back to the story. Ever wonder where supervillains go after their fight with the hero? What about the other side of the story? It's not like they sit in their lair cackling all day and planning how to kidnap reporters. What about the lives they lead? And instead of just focusing on that, what if the superhero and the supervillain knew each other? I mean, can they see behind the mask? No, so their identities are secret. So what if the hero and villain were best friends? What if they were roommates? What if they were falling for each other? And what happens when they find out? Now, I assume you know all of these questions will be answered in this book. But hold on. It's going to take a while. You're in for a bumpy ride. And if any of you got any of the references in this description, give yourself a pat on the back. That is a beautiful thing. And if you can name all the references in this book, you truly are a gift to mankind. Fangirl out.Concluida
CRIMINAL
COMPLETE "I don't love you anymore, Kane." I lie as I try to look him in the eyes. This however makes Nekane grin as he looks at me with amusement. "If you didn't love me anymore, you would've fucked different men in the past year," He says, taking a few steps closer. "If you didn't love me," He's now standing in front of me, his face close to mine. "You wouldn't have let me fuck you raw last night and you certainly wouldn't have let me cum inside of you," He says, his gaze falling to my lips. My breath hitches and I can feel my heartbeat speed up. "if you didn't still love me, you would've never let me get this close," He smirks as he blows a little air in my face.

His Broken Angel
For a second I turned my back when I felt strong arms grab my waist and pull me back. Reese forced me to sit on his lap as I felt his lips near my neck. "You really want me to leave?" he whispered in my ear with that deep voice of his. "Y-Yes," I stuttered. My heartbeat quickened as he planted a kiss right near my earlobe. Why was he doing this to me!? "But I just got here," Reese repeated. This time I didn't prepare myself since he began to plant soft kisses on my neck, I bit hard on my lips. Reese's hands traveled up my body until they met my stomach, my breath quickening. "Tempted?" his soft but alluring voice asked me. I could've nodded but I was too focused on the fact that his hand was right at my stomach. Instead I turned my head back and smirked before planting a soft kiss on his cheeks. "Maybe," I whispered. ****** Maggie Rosewood is new to the town, and she's not your typical girl. With a dark past and dangerous habits, she isn't planning on getting any attention from anybody at her new HighSchool. Reese Matthews is the exact opposite. He loves the attention and makes sure he gets it 24/7. But after one good look at Maggie, he will make sure that she is his girl. ****This story also includes self harm and bulimia, just a warning. Also, @XxUrban_WriterXx for the amazing cover. And @LostGirl01Dee for the name.Concluida
