He built a fortress around his heart. She brought a wrecking ball and a secret. Elias Thorne is a mystery in Oakhaven, A solitary figure and the owner of a successful tattoo franchise, his wealth is as carefully guarded as his silence.

Then June Hayes arrives. Burnt out from the new york art scene and pregnant via a donor, June is determined to create a peaceful, new life for herself and her baby. To the locals, she's just a sweet, new artist. They have no idea she's also viral sensation with over a million followers who sells her work to the A-list. June sees Elias's grumpy exterior and smiles. She needs a friend, and she has decided the broody, ball cap wearing man (no seriously I never see him without a hat on - June) across the street is it. She invades his quiet space showing up at the inkwell every Tuesday and spending the day, sharing her music, and poking at his meticulous order. Elias fights it all, clenching his jaw and pulling his cap low to hide the truth: he fell for the Wildflower the minute she crashed into his life. As June begins posting subtle, faceless photos of him, their reluctant friendship turns into an online viral romance that threatens to expose both of their secrets. How do you guard a heart that already belongs to a Wildflower, a baby, and a life you swore you'd never have? And what happens when the most careful grump in Oakhaven blurts out, "That's my wife," just to stay by her side? Tropes: - Grumpy x Sunshine - He Falls First - Protective - Pregnancy - Small Town - Forced Friends - Friends to lovers - Secret Identity CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE AND NEEDS EDITING

When the palace announces the kings betrothal contest, Evander doesn't think too much about it. It's vain and uncouth and certainly, no one is dumb enough to believe the king would actually choose a commoner to marry. His heart is put off of marraige, he isnt interested. He's content. He has his career, his bakery that he worked so hard to open and a peaceful life that he wouldn't trade for anything in the world. When his family enters his name for the competition, he reluctantly agrees, on the condition that if it doesn't work out, his mother would leave him alone about marriage. He doesn't expect it to be difficult. When he meets the king, he doesn't expect him to be kind, and warm and easy to talk to. He doesn't expect him to be...normal and suddenly, Evander has his priorities mixed. He loves his bakery and is determined to further his career, but his concerning feelings about King Zarrall are starting to make him think otherwise. Evander hates royals, and he hates magic, marrying the king means, putting himself directly in the middle everything he hates, but for Zarall? He might be willing to put up with it. This is a high fantasy novel, featuring a reluctant baker and a sweet golden retriever king. Any similarities to other stories is purely coincidental. MM Romance.

i'm begging you to keep on haunting me. peter parker x oc brand new day

They had ten minutes. That's all. Ten minutes of awkward laughter. Ten minutes of stolen glances. Ten minutes where she met her favorite actor. Ten minutes where he met a girl whose name he didn't even know until the end. And somehow, ten minutes was enough to make them both wonder what might have happened if they'd had more. Oneshot

"This is your fault," she snapped, eyes blazing. "Tumhare drama ke chakkar mein mera exam miss ho jayega." He exhaled slowly, unfazed, like the world wasn't collapsing around them. "Relax, Avni. Ek exam hi toh hai." Avni turned to Abhimanyu so fast it startled even him. "Ek exam? Tumhari life movie ho sakti hai, Abhimanyu Raichand, meri nahi. Main late hone ka luxury afford nahi karti." Abhimanyu scoffed, folding his arms. "You're acting like I planned this." She laughed, sharp and humorless. "You don't have to plan disasters. Tum bas exist karte ho, and things go wrong." For the first time, his jaw tightened. "Careful. Tum mujhe blame kar rahi ho kyunki tum control lose kar rahi ho." Her voice dropped, dangerous and quiet. "Nahi. Main tumhe blame kar rahi hoon kyunki tum hamesha late hote ho... aur logon ko bhi late kar dete ho." --- Abhimanyu x Avni This is not a love story. It's a collision. He's ego, entitlement, and perfectly styled arrogance. She's punctuality, logic, and zero tolerance for nonsense. Their first meeting isn't sparks, it's sparks flying in the wrong direction. Hate at first sight. Sharp words. Sharper glares. Two grumpy souls trapped by circumstance, forced proximity, and one missed train that turns irritation into obsession. --- Tropes:- --- • Enemies to lovers • Forced proximity • Both grumpy clash • Narcissist and stylish boy x spunky girl • Slow burn romance • Style x Height • Savage romance • Ego clash • Tall x Short

In the year 2089, the brilliant scientist Rina works for NASA. When a massive alien spacecraft lands on Earth, it puts all of humanity on high alert. The military and scientists prepare for first contact, hoping to study the extraterrestrial beings. But the truth is different. The aliens are centuries ahead of humanity technologically. They have been observing Earth for years, studying human language, culture, and biology, and can discern a person's intentions simply through their behavior and emotions. They have not come to wage war or steal knowledge. Their goal is to understand mysterious human emotions- they find humans fascinating and even cute in a strange way. However, they refuse to make contact with anyone harboring ill intentions. While the military watches the alien ship from a safe distance, Rina walks toward the landing site in her white NASA lab coat. At that moment, the alien commander looks up, studies her closely, and points directly at her. She is the very person he wishes to speak with. No one understands why he chose Rina. What begins as a scientific encounter between two worlds slowly evolves into a deep connection between a human woman and the leader of an alien species.
