Marinette Dupain-Cheng never expected her life to feel this normal again. After years spent protecting Paris, defeating an akuma army, and finally bringing down Gabriel Agreste's reign of terror, she thought peace would feel strange. But in a small sunlit apartment overlooking the Seine, peace feels a lot like waking up tangled in soft sheets, sharing coffee with the boy she once only dreamed of, and sketching designs on the balcony while he practices photo poses to make her laugh. Adrien Agreste, finally free from his father's control, is learning what it means to choose his own future. Modeling still follows him, but now it's on his terms - new agencies, new opportunities, and a life built with someone who sees him beyond the spotlight. For the first time, he is not a puppet or a hero. He's just Adrien... and Marinette is the one place where he truly belongs. Marinette's dreams of starting her own fashion line collide with the pressure of Paris' competitive industry. Adrien struggles to define who he is without the mask, without the miraculous, and without the man who controlled his past. Together, they face critics, old expectations, lingering trauma, and the strange ache of learning to grow as individuals while building a shared life. And when a new threat quietly rises in the city-one not magical, but human, calculated, and dangerously tied to the Agreste name-Marinette and Adrien realize that even without suits or superpowers, courage comes from the heart. Their greatest battle now? Learning how to love each other in a world where they finally have the freedom to live in.

This book is not just a collection of poems it is a confession written in quiet moments, in lingering glances, in words that tremble between hope and fear. H.A.N.N.A.H is a story of longing, patience, and sincere love. Each poem carries the weight of an unspoken feeling the courage to confess, the fear of losing, and the hope of being accepted. It is about loving gently, waiting honestly, and speaking from the depths of a heart that refuses to pretend. Within these pages are verses of devotion and vulnerability, written for someone who may never know how deeply they are loved-or perhaps someone who will. This is a journey through emotion: from admiration, to confession, to waiting... and to whatever answer comes after. If you have ever loved in silence, waited with patience, or hoped with your whole heart, then these poems are meant for you. Because sometimes the bravest thing a heart can do is confess.

Carmellia Angelique Montez(Lia) has always lived her life on schedule. Ranked fifth in Class A, raised in a family of business owners, doctors, and lawyers, Lia carries expectations like they're stitched into her uniform. As the only child, failure is never an option-only improvement. Only perfection. Only more. But behind the neat pigtails and polished answers is a girl who secretly dreams of the stage. Of lights. Of applause. Of becoming someone beyond a surname. Then there's Fonz Demitrus Lee(Zemi). Rank One. Careless. Unpredictable. Always with headphones on and a smile that feels like he knows something the world doesn't. The boy teachers question, the boy parents compare their children to, the boy who somehow excels without looking like he tries at all. Growing up with a single mom and a little sister, Zemi learned to live freely-even when life wasn't easy. And somewhere in between stands Axis Jade Gomez. Ranked second. Steady. Observant. Calm in ways that feel grounding. Jade is the type of person who doesn't demand attention-but earns it. With subtle smiles and quiet confidence, he becomes Lia's partner in reporting... and slowly, her safe place in a world that constantly demands more from her. Three students. One section. A ranking system that decides who matters. In a classroom where competition defines worth, where expectations weigh heavier than backpacks, and where glances last longer than they should- Will Lia continue living the life written for her? Will Fonz remain just the careless Rank One? And will Jade's steady presence be enough to anchor her heart? Or will the second row beside the window become the place where everything begins to change? Credits to the rughtful owners💗 Cover Photo is temporary, it's from pinterest.

A historical feminist piece which explores the difficulties of family expectation, social as well as gender inequality and the complexity of identity. Combining what was socially acceptable in the period with what was controversial or socially unacceptable, it highlights a bond between brother and sister which is later discovered to be more as family secrets are revealed. It questions the societal norms and expectations of the English culture and highlights the struggle of individual identity during the Victorian Era and additionally analyses the consequences of an individual suppressing their own sexual orientation.

Hot headed Cash Huxley is perfectly fine not being tied down. She lives her life the way she wants without having to answer to anyone. Which is why she's been the target of her family's constant pestering on the matter of marriage. While they want nothing more than to see her live her "happily ever after", Cash on the other hand would rather gouge her eyes out than give up her freedom. Being unable to take it any longer, however, Cash's mother decides to take things into her own hands by setting up her stubborn daughter on a blind date with one of the most eligible bachelor's she knows- Rio Asheton. Rio is the heir to the Asheton family conglomerate and more specifically the son of her father's boss. Will Cash be able to retain her sanity long enough to ensure her freedom or will Rio be the one to finally get her to give in and say "I do"?
