Kindness Stories

|| Featured FREE story with exclusive paid chapters - previously a paid story || When Haley discovers the truth behind Xavier, whose silence holds a deeper meaning, she sets her mind on making his life better one small step at a time. ***** Haley Rosamond is happy with her simple life, content under the wing of her father. Well-protected, she has no idea of the darkness surrounding Xavier Hunt, with his all-black attire and infrequent presence in school-accompanied by his bruises and scars. That is, until Haley catches a glimpse of Xavier's reality and is made to question everything she knows about family and life in general. The truth, she realizes, couldn't be more different from everything she has heard. Supported by her father, Haley sets her mind on helping Xavier any way she can, and what begins with tutoring sessions, free food, and random acts of kindness blooms into friendship and something a little more. But when Haley's admission into her dream college and another tragedy in Xavier's life threaten to undo everything she has worked for, Haley needs to decide if she'll stick by Xavier or simply be another person in his life that disappears.

One minute, Clara was walking home. The next, she was gone. Kidnapped off the street by three strangers-Ezra, Silas, and Lucian-she wakes up in a mansion too perfect to be real. Every room is tailored to her. Every meal, every hobby, every word-they knew everything. And now they expect her to play along in their twisted version of a family. They wanted her. To them, Clara is the missing piece. The daughter they've been waiting for. The one they've been preparing for. Every room is made for her. Every rule is meant to shape her. And every smile hides something sick. Ezra. Calm, calculating, always three steps ahead. No matter how careful Clara is, he sees through her. Every lie. Every escape attempt. Every flicker of rebellion. Silas is distant and cold, but dangerous in his silence. Silas keeps his distance-but when he looks at her, it's like he sees straight through. And Lucian... Lucian's the gentle one.The one who brings her hot chocolate with extra marshmallows and brushes her hair. The one who says this is all for her own good. Lucian is soft-spoken and kind... almost like he wants her to believe this could be real. But it isn't. They don't want her freedom. They want her obedience. Her love. Her role. They call it family. She calls it a nightmare. But if Clara wants to survive, she might have to play along. Even if it means pretending to love her captors. _________________________________________ Author's Note: This is a story I've been wanting to post and now I've finally done it.

🏆 The original Greek, unillustrated version of this story, "Αστερομαζεύοντας Τυχογυρεύοντας," was awarded Second Prize in the Kefalos Literary Competition and published in Christmas Anthology, Vol. 3 by Kefalos Publications (ISBN 978-618-5854-64-5). In the valley of Moon City, where a magnificent palace rose above a town once filled with laughter, Christmas brought with it the most magical night of the year: the Festival of Falling Stars. Beneath the moonlit sky, the royal family and the people of Moon City stood perfectly still in the palace courtyard, delicate porcelain teacups held in their hands. Among them were the King's two beautiful daughters, who, though twins, were different in every way. Everyone waited for the stars to fall, hoping to catch as many as they could in their cups and gather enough good fortune to last until the following Christmas. But that night, one deceitful woman ruined everything. What followed was far darker than anyone could have imagined. The beloved Queen soon lost her life, and a strange veil of sorrow, misery, and misfortune descended upon Moon City. Quarrels broke out everywhere. Anger passed from one person to another like a terrible sickness, until no corner of the kingdom seemed untouched. Inside the palace, the hot-tempered, hard-to-please Belladonna constantly clashed with her gentle, endlessly patient twin sister, Pasiflora. Beyond the palace gates, young and old alike argued and grumbled, as though the whole town had fallen under an invisible spell. Something had to be done. The terrible spell of misfortune had to be broken. Somehow, Moon City had to find its happiness again. And then, one night, as Christmas drew near, sweet Pasiflora cried herself to sleep upon her silken pillows and...

🖤 Ms. Valeria She lost her family at the age of ten... but never lost the strength to stand on her own. Dr. Valeria is a brilliant psychiatrist, admired for her intelligence, calm demeanor, and the rare emerald-green eyes that seem to hold secrets no one can explain. After losing her parents in a tragic accident, she learned to heal others while quietly carrying wounds of her own. What she doesn't know... ...is that someone has never forgotten her. Ten years after high school, fate reunites her with the boy who once admired her from a distance. Now one of the country's most powerful CEOs, he recognizes her the moment he sees her. She doesn't. Behind his cold smile and ruthless reputation lies a man fighting silent battles-crippling anxiety, relentless panic attacks, and memories he has never been able to escape. Determined to keep his feelings hidden, he watches from the shadows, learning everything about her... until destiny places her in the very hospital he owns. She believes he's nothing more than an arrogant, heartless CEO. He pretends she's just another employee. But every argument hides years of unspoken love. Every glance conceals a heart that never moved on. And somewhere behind Valeria's mysterious green eyes lies a truth that could change everything. When love is buried beneath pride, pain, forgotten memories, and dangerous secrets... Will they become each other's greatest cure... or each other's deepest wound? 🖤 Ms. Valeria Some hearts are destined to meet twice. The second time, they're tested by fate.

The Choice of Compassion is a collection of poems born from my deepest conviction that poetry is a divine language - one that can touch hearts, awaken empathy, and remind humanity that there are still souls on Earth whose hearts are vast enough to feel compassion for both those who are like them and those who are not. Each poem flows from a heart devoted to true love, wisdom, and truth - a humanitarian spirit intertwined with both joy and sorrow. In many of my verses, I remember and honor my Lord, Saviour, and Messiah, Jesus Christ, for He is the source of my strength, my peace, and my everything. Through these humble but powerful poems, I hope to sow seeds of kindness, to nurture forgiveness where pain has taken root, and to reveal that the choice of compassion is not only an act of unconditional love - it is the sacred path toward a more merciful and peaceful world. If my poems touch your heart, I pray you will share them with your friends, your family, and with those who are in need of them. May God bless you all abundantly. You are all in my heart and daily prayers.

"I want to kiss the hell out of you right now." Despite all her sweet confessions, she still managed to narrow her eyes at him. "I'm mad at you." He didn't give her time to escape the moment. One second she was glaring at him, the next he had moved, guiding her back against the couch with a suddenness that made her yelp in surprise. Her breath was still uneven when he looked down at her. "Let me change that," he whispered, his voice low and rough with everything he was feeling. "Please?" "Okay," she murmured shyly. *** One ordinary woman made the conman want an honest life.

For most survivors sheltering in the wilderness along the Upper Alsea River, Pearl's raspy voice announcing her arrival was music to their ears. Little wonder since she was the only outlier with enough nerve to trade goods out of a drift boat upriver and down through a dystopian landscape, patch up the wounded, bury the dead, and share the latest news about the Meltdown dragging on into its fourth year. But a few months ago, her luck went from bad to worse. Bounty hunters tracked her down. Jailers locked her away in a single cell with the well-worn gallows in her line of sight. A military court found her guilty of gunrunning during a declared disaster. Now Pearl faces her toughest challenge yet: confronting her own part in the chaos while talking her way out of being the next inmate hauled up those rickety stairs to take the long drop.
