    Raven's life takes an unexpected turn when he meets his destined mate at a local high school-she's only eighteen, he's twenty-four. Respecting her need for time, he steps back, vowing to be ready when she is. Over the years, he quietly builds a life in preparation for their future, checking in weekly, imagining the home, the meals, the life they could share. But when he misreads a scene and believes she's moved on, his carefully held composure shatters. In a moment of despair, he drinks and takes a supplement, severing their bond just when she needs him most. Only when she finds him, confused and hurt, can the truth be revealed-that nothing was as it seemed, and their connection, tested and tender, may finally begin.

    Some people take their time with everything- with conversations, with attachments, with the meanings they allow things to carry. Diksha has always been one of them. At Ranchi University, her days move quietly between lectures, hostel rooms, and familiar routines that ask nothing more of her than presence. Until one evening shifts something-softly, almost unnoticed. A wedding she was never meant to attend. Lights spilling gold into the night. Music weaving through strangers who seem to belong. And in the middle of it- "Groom's side or bride's?" She turns. A familiar face. Someone she has seen before, somewhere between corridors and passing moments. Pratik. The question rests lightly, as if it means nothing. "Groom's side," she replies, without thinking. A brief pause. A quiet smile-like he understands something she doesn't. "Okay." And that is all. No grand beginning. No promises. Just a moment that settles quietly... and stays. Back on campus, everything remains the same- the same corridors, the same classrooms, the same rhythm of days moving forward. And yet- Something lingers a second too long. A glance feels a little more intentional. A familiarity begins to take shape. Some things arrive gently. They settle into silences that feel understood, into moments that ask for nothing and still leave something behind. Until, slowly, they become something you carry. Something that stays. Something that begins to feel like everything. And that's the thing about love- you never really know what it is while you're inside it. A romance... or a tragedy. By the time you understand- it's already too late. All rights reserved.

    She came to the orchard to disappear, and fell in love with the woman who made staying feel dangerous. Nina comes to Iris's orchard to disappear. She doesn't plan to stay. She doesn't plan to want anything. She especially doesn't plan to notice the woman who moves through the trees like she belongs to them-sun-warmed, unhurried, impossible to ignore. The days are long and heavy with heat. Cherries stain fingers and shirts. Sweat, silence, and shared work strip away the parts of Nina that have been holding her together too tightly. Maeve never pushes. Never asks for more than what's offered. And somehow, that makes everything harder. Three cherries joined at the stem become a quiet promise: hunger, longing, love. Not the dramatic kind. The kind that grows slowly. The kind that stays. As the orchard hums and summer deepens, Nina begins to feel her body again-her wants, her fear, her hope. Being seen by another woman feels dangerous. Being held by a place that remembers feels worse. And leaving starts to feel like the bravest thing she might never do. Three Stemmed Cherries is a slow-burn sapphic romance about summer heat, emotional healing, and the tenderness of chosen family. A soft, intimate story for readers who love quiet longing, cottagecore atmospheres, and love that doesn't rush-but doesn't let go either.

    This is where all the stray scenes ended up. The ones that knocked on my door, said "we belong in your story," (even they are wrong). So I kept them anyway. Because some moments are too lovely - or too stubborn - to let go. Between silence and laughter, war and peace, there are fragments - pieces of Hermione and Severus that never found a home, and yet somehow became one. Snamione. Shards of Us. -- Some chapters will appear in both English and Czech - others only in one language. There's no order, no timeline, no logic. Just fragments finding their way to the light, in whatever language they decide to speak first. --- Marked as complete, but never truly finished. Some stories just keep finding their way home. --- Every idea, twist, and heartbeat in these stories is mine. Written by a human, polished with a bit of AI magic - still entirely made of heart and dreams. I use AI the way I'd use a mirror or a good editor - to reflect, to refine, and to challenge myself to do better.
