Unfinishedbusiness Stories

Percy Mendez was only looking for a job. Instead, he found a ghost. Percy has always been able to see the dead. To him, ghosts are nothing new. But after an unexpected encounter with Spencer, a young man who has been dead for nearly a year, his ordinary life begins to unravel in ways he never expected. Spencer is confused, stubborn, and strangely familiar. He carries unfinished feelings and questions about the life he left behind. What begins as an unlikely friendship slowly pulls Percy deeper into a world where the dead still have unfinished business and the living are sometimes haunted by the things they refuse to let go of. Then there is Elias. Spencer's boyfriend. Percy's old acquaintance. And someone whose presence awakens feelings Percy thought he had buried long ago. As the three become connected in ways none of them fully understand, Percy finds himself caught between the living and the dead, between a love that was lost and a love that might still be possible. But some hearts are still holding on to the past. And sometimes, the hardest goodbye isn't saying farewell to someone who died. It's letting go of someone who is still alive. Three Hearts, One Goodbye is a story about friendship, grief, love, ghosts, and the people who change our lives even when they were never meant to stay.

With her waist-length hair, a ring that holds her world together, and a personality that could light up the entire campus, she's ready to take her first year of college by storm. She doesn't have time for distractions-especially not quiet, brooding seniors. Steve Williams is the anchor. A third-year senior who lives by the ticking of his analog watch and the logic of his code.

A thread that doesn't end when the final bell rings or the graduation caps are thrown. This isn't just a college romance. This is the beginning of a lifetime. Because while their paths start here, destiny has much bigger plans for where they'll cross again. Their journey starts in the chaos... but where will it lead when the world pulls them apart? #CollegeRomance #SlowBurn #OppositesAttract #Destiny #FirstLove #NewAdult #Fate #IndianAuthors #SunshineVsStoic #Coding #CampusLife #ThreadsOfDestiny

When Alejandra Hernandez imagined all the things she'd get to do when hanging out with her friends for her seventeenth birthday, dying was never on that list of things. Neither was meeting a cute, flirty ghost boy in a rock band from the 90s but here she was, dead and dealing with all kinds of problems the afterlife decided to throw at her. Basically just a childish romance and fluff. ---------- The little ghost doodles credit is to @ arttavern on instagram Story is also on archive of our own under the same name and user -------------

BOOK II - ERROR 404 II Months after the city survived a night it was never meant to remember, life has resumed-but not recovered. Officially, the disaster was contained. Records were sealed, witnesses silenced, and the missing reduced to numbers. Unofficially, something has changed. Shadows no longer behave like shadows. The night feels heavier. And people who lived through it carry a quiet certainty that the horror did not end-it withdrew. The survivor at the center of the catastrophe struggles to rebuild a normal life while haunted by fragments of memory that feel less like trauma and more like unfinished business. Sleep brings warnings instead of rest, and the sense of being watched never fully fades. As unexplained incidents begin to surface beyond the city-bodies found without wounds, animals torn apart with impossible precision, security footage that erases itself-new forces enter the scene. Hunters, operating without names or insignia, trace patterns that suggest what awakened during the blackout was only the beginning. For centuries, certain predators remained hidden by choice. Now secrecy is becoming a liability. While shadow-born entities adapt and evolve, other creatures begin to move openly, bound by instinct, territory, and blood. Their presence threatens not just humanity, but the fragile balance between supernatural factions that have avoided open conflict for generations. Book II is a descent into controlled horror-less chaos, more intent. The question is no longer what happened, but what is coming, and whether humans are still part of the equation-or simply collateral.
