    His voice was hoarse as he whispered against my ear, "Shh, love. Stop being so irresistible. I want to give you something." He pulled his fingers out of my pants, leaving me empty and frustrated. My eyes snapped to his instantly, a soft whimper escaping my lips. He took out a small, velvet box from his pocket, holding it out to me silently. Curiosity piqued, I opened it to reveal a pair of delicate gold anklets, tiny diamonds and rubies scattered along the chain. I looked up at him questioningly, but he just smiled softly, taking my left foot gently in his hand. He wrapped one anklet around my left ankle, securing it with a gentle click. Then he picked up my right foot, his touch reverent. "Fuck, love," he murmured, "You look even more beautiful with these." He leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to my left ankle, right above the anklet. I gasped, he smiled against my skin before kissing my right ankle as well. "Perfect." he whispered. ⚬──────────✧──────────⚬ Aarohi Arora, a soft-spoken, seemingly fragile girl with quiet strength buried deep within her.

    ✧"I'd live through every second of it again... if it meant I'd still be 𝓌𝒾𝓉𝒽 𝓎𝑜𝓊." ✧ ⚜ Sebastian Holtman grew up in a house with more rules than laughter, polished floors and a continuous silence that he had grown used to. Cassian Holtman-a man of importance and high respect, and also known as his father-had always taught him that perfection was expected, emotions were a weakness, and questions were better left unanswered. So when an unexpected letter arrives on his eleventh birthday, informing him that he has been accepted into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Sebastian finds himself stepping into a world far bigger than anything he had ever imagined. Magic, however, is the least of his worries. Because behind the moving staircases, enchanted portraits and centuries-old castle walls lie forgotten secrets, strange visions, and whispers that seem to know his name long before anyone else does. As the years pass, the line between truth and illusion begins to blur, friendships are forged in the unlikeliest of places, and Sebastian slowly discovers that some mysteries are buried for a reason. After all... Some stories begin with a letter. His began long before he was born. (Eventual Hermione Granger x Oc) *Disclaimer This is a fan-made work based on J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter universe. I do not own any of the original characters, locations, or settings, except for my original characters and plot. This story contains mature themes, including trauma, abuse, grief, and violence.

    The heavy 9 PM rain poured over the deserted mall parking lot, mirroring Kabir's furious storm inside. He gripped Vanshika's wrist-not enough to hurt, but firm enough to ground her. "Butterfly! Kaha thi tum kabse call kar raha hu?" His voice was a harsh rasps of tension and anger, his heart having nearly stopped during every unanswered ring. "Mai apne dosto ke sath shopping par aayi thi!" she said, beaming with sweet innocent happiness, completely oblivious to his panic. "Ghar chalo," he commanded in a heavy, strained tone. "Nahi mujhe maa se milna hai... please," she pleaded, joining both her hands with irresistible warmth. "No! Kal chale jana abhi ghar chalo," he snapped, his mafia-lord restraint snapping completely under the torrential downpour. He pulled her closer, his dark eyes locked onto hers with raw intensity. "Do you have any idea what you do to me, Vanshika? Tumhare ek unanswered call se mera dam ghutne lagta hai! You act so careless, but I live every single second in fear that someone might take my weakness away from me. Tum meri jaan ho, mere butterfly, and I am losing my mind trying to keep you safe! If I ever lose you, I will burn this entire world to ashes." Vanshika's breath caught as the rain drenched them both, the harshness in his voice revealing the desperate love buried beneath his fierce protection.

    Twenty years ago, Krishvi was seven. She had a family she loved, an uncle she looked up to, and a father she believed could protect her from anything. Until one night changed everything. Her uncle never came home. Her father was blamed for something he never did. And Krishvi disappeared. Twenty years ater, she has learned to live quietly with the pieces of a life she barely remembers. At twenty-seven, she owns a small café and runs an NGO that helps people who have nowhere else to turn. She is there for everyone children, students, women, victims, strangers. Just never for herself. Krishvi is kind, but distant. She listens, but rarely speaks about herself. She helps people carry their burdens while pretending she has none of her own. She doesn't smile often anymore. And she doesn't talk about the night she was taken. Not because she doesn't want to remember. But because there are parts of that night she simply can't. A few broken memories. A familiar voice. A hand holding hers. Her uncle telling her not to be afraid. And then... nothing. For twenty years, her family has tried to move on. Krishvi hasn't. Because somewhere inside her is the feeling that there is more to that night than what she was told. Her father's old investigation. Her uncle's death. The accusations that destroyed their family. And the people who benefited from all of it. Maybe some wounds are better left alone. Maybe some truths are not worth finding. But Krishvi has spent twenty years living with questions. Now, she's finally ready to ask them. And as she begins pulling at the first loose thread of her past, she doesn't realise that one small answer may unravel everything she thought she knew about her family... and about herself. Some things break with time. Some things break in a single night. And some broken threads are waiting twenty years to be tied again.

    Hi! This is my first book, and I wanted to write a story about "good" and "bad" but from a different perspective. This book talks a lot about abuse, trauma, mental health, and teen life. It's bittersweet: you'll get plot twists, mystery, action... but also some soft and sweet moments in between. It follows Layla, a girl raised to be a weapon. Her life has never been normal, and now she's sent on her first mission: to protect a boy from a wealthy family. I hope you enjoy it!

    What if everything you've ever believed about your family... was a lie? Sixteen-year-old Lucy Everly has spent her entire life inside the Church of the Firstborn in the tiny farming town of Rocky, Oklahoma, where obedience is expected, questions are dangerous, and everyone knows everyone else's secrets-or so they think. Then Lucy's childhood friend Tracy Dove disappears. When Lucy begins asking questions no one wants answered, she finds herself caught between Greg Elliott, the boy she's loved for as long as she can remember, and Jacob Reddick, the loyal friend who would do anything to protect her. Together, they begin uncovering hidden records, altered documents, forgotten graves, and secrets that have been buried in Rocky for generations. The closer Lucy gets to the truth, the more dangerous the questions become. A respected sheriff seems to know more than he should. Church elders are watching her. Her father is hiding something that could change everything Lucy believes about her family, and someone is willing to kill to keep the past buried. But the greatest mystery may not be what happened to Tracy. It may be **who Lucy really is**. Set against the haunting landscape of southwest Oklahoma, ***The Firstborn Prophecy*** is a Southern Gothic coming-of-age thriller about first love, faith, betrayal, family secrets, and the terrible cost of questioning everything you've been taught to believe. Inspired by real places and the emotional realities of growing up within a small religious sect, the story blends psychological suspense, mystery, romance, and Southern Gothic darkness into a world where faith runs deep, secrets run deeper, and the truth can be more dangerous than any lie. Some secrets are buried. Others are baptized.
