Cruel Stories

Elara Scott believed love was something you built, steady, patient, earned. After a childhood defined by chaos, Jonah Sterling's calm attention feels like oxygen: the quiet check-ins, the small touches, the safety of being wanted. But Jonah, heir to an old money East Coast dynasty and CEO of a powerful tech and security empire, only ever loved one woman. Sofia is the ghost his family still worships, the future he never stopped craving. When the board demands a "settled" image, Jonah chooses Elara not with devotion, but with convenience. In the Sterling world, Elara is an outsider in every room, enduring polished cruelty, public humiliation, and a husband who watches in silence. Even when an unexpected pregnancy gives them a daughter, Isla, Elara remains the wife who was never truly chosen. When Sofia returns and Jonah's attention begins to slip, first from Elara, then from Isla, Elara makes a decision that shatters the perfect façade: she leaves. But divorce doesn't erase Jonah's past. It exposes it, and forces Jonah to face the damage he allowed, the family that enabled it, and the woman who learned to live without him. A devastating, angst-filled story of second choice love, quiet cruelty, and a father fighting to repair the bond he nearly destroyed, after it's too late to save the marriage.

Inspector Yn has only one mission: to bring down the infamous JEON Mafia brothers who rule both the business and underworld with untouchable power. Every plan she creates shatters, every mission fails-as if someone is always one step ahead. Determined to unmask the traitor in her team, she swears she won't stop until Jeon Jungkook is behind bars. But at home, away from the badge and the gun, she finds comfort in the arms of Kim Jungkook-the man who makes her heart race, the one she trusts without doubt. What she doesn't know is the cruelest truth of all: the Mafia King she hunts is the very man she loves. And the closer she gets to justice... the closer she walks into his trap. Read it I feel like you won't regret

She was four years old when she was found-alone, silent, and unnamed-left at the gates of an orphanage with no past to claim her. At five, she was given something rare and fragile: a home. A warm family who taught her laughter, safety, and what it meant to belong. But love, for her, was never meant to last. At twelve, tragedy took everything from her again. What remained was a girl who learned to survive by feeling less. By speaking less. By building quiet walls no one could cross. She grew into someone composed, distant-untouchable in ways even she didn't fully understand. Now, at nineteen, her life shifts in a way she never expected. She finds herself surrounded by people who are not strangers... yet not quite family or friends either. There's something unfamiliar in the way they see her-something warmer, something that lingers. Something like love. But love, to her, has always come with an ending. So the question isn't whether she can feel-it's whether she'll allow herself to be seen. To be known. To speak the emotions she buried long ago. Because sometimes, the hardest thing isn't surviving loss- It's choosing to open your heart again.

She was never meant to be his wife. She was meant to be his revenge. When Anastasia is forced into a marriage she never chose, she becomes bound to Killian-a man feared for his silence as much as his violence. To her family, the union is protection. To him, it is justice long delayed. Every vow is calculated. Every act of devotion hides a blade. Killian has waited years to dismantle the family that destroyed his own, and through Anastasia, he finally holds the thread that can unravel them all. But fate has a cruel sense of irony. The woman meant to be collateral begins to matter. And the deeper the bond between them grows, the more impossible his revenge becomes. Because some threads, once pulled too tight, cannot be cut without blood.

Royal Princess X A common men In the silent corridors of royalty and the forgotten corners of orphanages, two broken souls dared to dream of a love the world was never ready to accept. *Tanishi Raichand*, the elder princess of Jodhpur-once celebrated for her ethereal beauty, now hides behind veils not of tradition, but of pain. An attack in her past stole more than her face; it shattered her spirit, and with it, the love of a family that once adored her. Behind palace walls, she aches for a freedom that only exists in the rhythm of her secret dance. *Vayansh*, a boy born without a name, raised in an orphanage where he learned to survive without belonging. A doctor by degree knowledge, an artist by heart and soul-he finds meaning in forgotten colors, unspoken silences, and in *her. To him, she is not royalty-she is a heartbeat that matches his own. Their worlds were never meant to collide. But letters became lifelines. Eyes began to recognize one another through pain. And two hearts, bruised and battered, dared to beat for love in a world that called them unworthy. But what happens when that love is discovered? Will her family, obsessed with royal blood and legacy, ever accept a man with no surname, no title-just an orphan with a soul full of dreams? Will they embrace the girl who chose love over lineage... Or offer her back to the world with blood on its hands? --> "They killed their dreams, so they chose eachother arms." Because in a world built on pride, power, and prestige... *Love was never enough.* --------------> In a world that killed their love, they chose to die with eathother name.

Shinoa, human, 15, a shy depressed kid, just wants her family issues to go away, but unfortunately heighten, when her parents got into trouble for drunk driving. Luke, around the same age, but alas, not nearly as tall, as his roommate that is oblivious to his presence.(Can't blame her) As the seasons go by, alot of development and loose plot begins to build up, putting dear Shinoa and Luke in situations that are dangerous, awkward or down right cute or horrifying.

Season 3: Summer Sand arc A season that starts introducing some of the main plot and things start to get juicy.

"The fire we circled didn't bless us-it cursed us. And I will make sure you burn in it first." - Dhani Varhan. For a florist like Dhani Varhan, a black orchid usually meant elegance. But the one left for her after that unsettling wedding was a threat. Overnight, her quiet life was flipped upside down, caught in the crosshairs of a power she never asked to be a part of. But Dhani refuses to be a trophy or a captive. To live the life she has always dreamed of-one completely free from chains, control, and lethal restrictions-she has to run. But escaping a shadow that grows everywhere is easier said than done. 🍁 Tonight, she wasn't just running; she was trying to outrun fate itself. Freedom was her only god, and she was sprinting toward a horizon where his name was never whispered. But the universe has a cruel sense of irony. It doesn't allow a masterpiece to escape its collector. As she fled through the shadows, she realized too late that she wasn't running toward safety-she was hurtling into the mouth of the abyss. The reckoning she feared didn't come in the form of a storm. It wore a tailored suit and possessed a gaze that could strip a soul bare. *Ekansh Rathore.* Confusion clouded her mind until her eyes fell upon the sacred fire-and the truth hit her like a physical blow. Her heart died of pure horror. No. No, he couldn't be doing this. "No! Please!" Her voice tore from her throat, a frantic scream that echoed off the stone walls. She thrashed against him, raining desperate blows down on his chest and shoulders, but it was like fighting a mountain. His iron grip around her wrist only tightened as he ruthlessly dragged her into the circle, turning a holy rite into her worst nightmare. He completed his vows of madness, and in response, a raw, soul-ripping scream shattered from her throat. He claimed the enchantress by force, blind to the ancient truth: when you cage a goddess, you unknowingly volunteer to be the first sacrifice at her altar.

These are short stories that are full of emotion and are funny. I hope you enjoy a sneak peak to my crumbling life ;) Welcome home! Please comment a red heart if you can relate! xoxo

_He had five months to prove what never happened._ He woke up in a jail cell for a crime he didn't commit. No history of violence. No motive. Just a single accusation that turned his life into evidence. For 153 days, every hour was measured against doubt. His lawyer skimmed his file. The courtroom doors swung open and shut. His name was dragged through headlines that didn't wait for facts. Outside, the world kept moving. His job, his relationships, his sense of safety - all of it eroded while he counted days on a concrete wall. The system doesn't move fast for the innocent. It moves fast for closure. And closure doesn't care if it's right. This isn't a story about guilt. It's about what happens to a man when the burden of proof flips. When silence becomes suspicious. When time becomes the sentence, even if the verdict doesn't. *Five months too long.* One man. One lie. And the grinding weight of every second in between.

He was a good man once. Kind and patient, he'd do anything for the people of his kingdom. That's over now. He's changed. No longer is he the loving King they once remembered. His heart has turned cold. Content Warning: Gore, Foul Language, Death, Violence, Insanity If any of these disturbs you, do not read this book unless you think you can handle it.
