A few stories that I sometimes enjoy writing. It will therefore not be one, but several short stories. Remember they are fairy tales, for kids and for dreams. Yes it's short. Yes it's not realistic. That's what a fairy tale is...

Two souls. One misunderstanding. "Leave me Walid I- " he cut me off like always. "Shut up Zahra, how dare you have the courage to lie straight to my face even after I saw you with my business partner?" His venomous tone sent chills down to every bone in my body. "Yes but- " I tried to defend myself but he gripped my wrists harder. "Zahra you know better than anyone that I don't do well with those who try to take advantage of my possessions." Those brown orbs stared down cold at me, cementing the fact that he meant every word he spoke. Tears swelled up my eyes as I looked disbelievingly at him. "Possession? When was I ever truly yours, Walid?" ***** He : who touched my soul; who believed me when no one did; who held my hand in the darkest of days.. It was him since forever. -Zahra Love was never my strength but I could burn and tear the world down for those grey orbs.. She is the one who set fire in my cold heart... It was her since forever. -Walid ***** Ruthless. Arrogant. Jerk. Devil. That's how they define Walid Ahmed. Savage. Childish. Believer. Lover. That's how they define Zahra Hassan. What happens when they are bound in a marriage which wasn't supposed to happen in the first place? Join Zahra and Walid's dramatic journey, where hatred makes way for love eventually... or does it?

This is one heck of a Victorian-style fantasy novel. Add a spoonful of steam engines to make that darned technology tree come alive! Add a spoonful of love and hatred, so everyone has good reasons to brawl! Add a spoonful of madness to lighten up this gloomy world, and finally, add a spoonful of natural disasters to play the main boss... and so on! Phew, that's a lot! ... Year 931 in the Engerwick Calendar. The city I reside in has been hailed as the most advanced in the West. The main reasons? The world-shaking steam technology, emerging technologies, and the wellspring of chaos. Can't deny it, but the fact remains that people keep flocking here to live. This city always gives you a glimmer of hope, whether it's lies or illusions, but it's so close, within arm's reach, making you risk life and limb. A city of hallucinations. I am one of those dream-chasers.

Some love stories are loud. Theirs was never one of them. Nitya has always been good at surviving-toxic silences, unfinished nightmares, memories that don't fully belong to her. She has built herself carefully, brick by brick, anger stitched into independence. People call her cold. She calls it control. Rivan has always been patient. He has loved her in the quietest ways-through unfinished sketches, stolen glances, and songs she never knew were about her. Twelve years of almosts. Of timing that never aligned. Of feelings that never faded. They grew up together in the mountains. They drifted. They met again. And somehow, nothing felt new-and everything did. But some pasts don't stay buried. Some doors, once locked, remember how to open. And some love stories are tested not just by distance... but by truth. In a world where everyone thinks they know them, only they know what they've survived. And maybe-just maybe -this time, they won't let go. ─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ─── ｔｒｏｐｅｓ • Childhood frenemies to lovers. ° He fell first and harder. ° Slow burn. ° Long Distance. ° unrequited ° soft romance ° Bestfriend

: This is a edited version of the previous story. I have made some changes with more detailed and better story telling while still keeping the original storyline. In the kingdom of Shivalik, Crown Prince Kim Jungkook is a storm no one can tame-wild, defiant, forever clashing with the crown he is destined to wear. Yet all his rebellion pales before the night he hears it: a voice drifting from the blackened forest, rich and spellbound, luring him with a beauty that tastes like danger. Each night, he chases it. Each night, it slips away. But the forest does not return him empty-handed. Hidden in its shadows waits Taehyung-a figure of impossible allure, quiet as death and radiant as moonlight, with secrets that burn behind his gaze. He is both a comfort and a curse, drawing Jungkook into a bond as irresistible as it is forbidden. Together, they search for the phantom song, yet the deeper they venture, the clearer it becomes: the voice is not merely a mystery, but a fate that binds them in ways neither can escape. Desire coils with dread, love entwines with ruin, and the forest whispers promises it should never keep. This is no simple tale of discovery-it is a dark fairytale of forbidden longing and inevitable tragedy, where salvation and damnation wear the same face, and where one haunting truth reigns above all: some voices are not meant to be followed... and some loves are not meant to survive.

'He's a Piggy' is a boys love story inspired by my favorite couple, Lucas and Kibo, who have been together for almost eight years. Lucas, known for his playful nature, affectionately teases Kibo by calling him a "piggy." Kibo has vampire teeth and adorable cheeks, he caught my attention and started watching their vlogs. Their YouTube channel (Lucas and Kibo), which I highly recommend checking out. Trust me, both of them are absolutely lovable!

Once there was a girl, daughter of an Alpha, who happened to face consequences of the things she had no control over. How? By being ostracized from her own kind. By being betrayed by her own family. By being rejected by her own soulmate who chooses her sister instead. And by being banished from the Kingdom. As she returns after years, she notices several changes. One of them being the demeanor of her mate.

"Dinner?" Mia asks taking a piece of pizza onto her plate. "con lei sul tavolo,"He says to mia. I try focus on my food. That voice. (with her on the table) Mia guestures him to take the seat opposite me. "come dovrei concentrarmi quando è fottutamente bellissima," he says his accent thick. (how am I supposed to concentrate when she's fucking gorgeous.) He's hot. His voice. Mia, Alessa and Luca all look at me making me uncomfortable. "Someone's intimidated by you," Alessa whispers looking at him. "basta affrontarlo," Luca says grinning at him. (just deal with it).

Book 3 (Of the Continents) Kings and Queens rule the continents. Privateers, commonly dubbed Pirates, rule the sea. On the high seas, Pirates run rampant. Pillaging and plundering ships and coastal towns. Used as horror stories by mothers and fathers to scare their children away from the deadly waves. Some daring young decide to tempt fate and are never seen again. The Western Sea Serpent is one of the most feared ships on the western side of Kaladrielion. Her captain seized control when he was a young boy. The youngest captain on the seas. It was said he will steal the hearts of your children. But this isn't about him. It's about a young female and her lost brother. A lost love. Reunited siblings. And a pirate ship on the high seas.

I hate secrets. And I hate drama. But somehow, I stumbled into relationships with two girls, each one hiding something big from me. Bree is beautiful and fit. Captain of the cheerleaders and homecoming queen. She's every guy's dream, every guy but me that is. I didn't really intend to date her, but things just have a way of taking on a life of their own. Then there's Peyton, who drives me crazy. She's a teammate, for God's sake. A football player with a shaved head who disguised herself as a dude to make varsity. She's tough and independent, a smartass with a big chip on her shoulder. But she's more than that--her beauty is wild and untamed. She glows electric, and I'm drawn to that electricity like lightning to a rod. So, I find myself in a bit of a bind--a love triangle with a cheerleader and a football player--and I have a feeling that their secrets just might alter the course of my life forever.

Luliana Grace opened her eyes, a stark white ceiling blurring into focus. A wave of disorientation washed over her, a dizzying tide of confusion and fear. The sterile scent of antiseptic filled her nostrils, bringing back memories of... nothing. Who was she? Where was she? The questions pounded in her mind, a relentless drumbeat of uncertainty. As she tried to piece together the fragments of her existence, a shadow fell across her, obscuring the harsh hospital light. A man stood before her, his face a mask of concern. "Zylene," he said, his voice a soft rumble that sent shivers down her spine. "Don't worry. You're safe now. I'm Mateo... Your husband." A man called her Zylene? And introduced himself as her husband? Her mind reeled. Husband? She had no memory of a husband. No memory of a life. But the man's eyes, a deep, stormy gray, held a strange familiarity. A glimmer of recognition flickered within her, quickly extinguished by the crushing weight of her amnesia. She clung to his words, desperate for an anchor in the swirling chaos of her forgotten life. Mateo, a man of shadows and secrets, watched her with a mix of tenderness and something darker, more dangerous. He was the leader of a vast mafia empire, a man who wielded power like a weapon, a man who thrived in the darkness. But beneath his hardened exterior, a spark of vulnerability flickered, a flicker ignited by the woman whose memory had been stolen from her. He couldn't allow himself to fall for her, to let his heart betray him. It was too dangerous. But a part of him craved her, yearned for her, longed to protect her from the darkness that threatened to consume them both. He had a choice to make. A choice that could alter the course of their lives forever.

Disclaimer: This is my own work, if a character seem to be similar, it may be due to a coincidence or may also be because I was inspired of their work. I tried my best to make a unique content. In a world where the heavens themselves weave intricate schemes, Li Gang is reborn into the brutal cultivation realm of the Divine Spirit World. Here, power is absolute, and the strongest warriors and immortals manipulate fate, treating mortals and weaker cultivators as mere pawns in their grand designs. Armed with the memories of his past life and a mind sharper than any blade, Li Gang quickly realizes that raw strength alone is not enough to survive. Every sect, clan, and faction hides venomous plots, and even disciples are mere tools for their masters' ambitions. The path to power is paved with betrayal, deception, and blood. But Li Gang is no ordinary pawn. With unparalleled intellect and an unwavering will, he begins to turn the tide-navigating deadly conspiracies, outwitting ancient masterminds, and twisting their own schemes against them. Whether through manipulation, ruthless strategy, or sheer defiance, he refuses to be controlled. Yet, the deeper he delves into the world's secrets, the more terrifying the truth becomes. The so-called "Immortals" are not as invincible as they claim. They, too, are caught in a game far greater than he ever imagined. The true masterminds lurk in the shadows, pulling the strings of even the highest cultivators. To break free, Li Gang must not only rise to power but shatter the very foundations of this world's control. Can he outscheme the schemers and become the ultimate ruler, or will he, too, fall victim to the grand design? In a world of lies, only the sharpest mind reigns supreme. (Some grammatical errors at the beginning chapters. It is fixed later on!)
