Firstdate Stories

When legendary pirate Red-Haired Shanks meets up with his long-time friend and rival, Mihawk, he is surprised to learn that the swordsman has a new female first mate. After he looses an arm in a tragic accident, Shanks begins to think this girl may just be the key to his salvation. *** "Cheers," she offered him her glass with a sideways smile. "To going to hell or whatever you said." Shanks clinked his glass to hers. "Nice to meet you, Miss Field. I hope you're a better pirate than you are a bartender." The remark had a slight bite, but Lucy just laughed. "I'm a better pirate than I am anything," she confirmed. "But it's nice to meet you too." *** **No, I am not interested in collaboration, thank you**

Burnout is expensive. So is falling for someone you're not sure you're ready for. She's a 29-year-old corporate attorney who has mastered the art of surviving - billing hours, deflecting feelings, and never getting too invested. He's a psychiatrist who believes in intention over potential and isn't afraid to say what he means. They meet on Reddit. In r/Burnout. Of all places. What starts as dry humor and late-night messages slowly turns into something neither of them planned - or fully trusts. Because it's one thing to want love. It's another to believe it will stay. A slow-burn AMBW romance about stability, vulnerability, and choosing someone before fear chooses for you.

21 year old Ayla has been waiting for her mate her whole life. She's finally been given the opportunity to attend the 'Grand Mating Ball'. Will she find her mate? Her family was supposed to be her safe place. They were supposed to protect and care for her. Instead, they pushed her to the edge of hell. Will her mate protect and care for her, or will he also like her parents abandon and neglect her? Alpha Ryan is cold and dangerous. He doesn't want a mate, never has and he is certain he never will. He goes to the Grand Mating Ball, not expecting to find his mate but he does. He decides to draw up an agreement with his mate: they both will act like they are in love in front of his family and the pack for the sake of harming (to show the pack that they are a strong and stable couple, also to prevent threats from other packs) but will mind each others' business in private.

He was new. He was handsome. He had his secrets. And he wanted her. Hazel met him once at the train station and couldn't get him out of her mind ever since. When he suddenly appeared at her school, he wouldn't stop going after her. Torn between her unexplainable attraction to him and her fear of relationships, she wanted nothing to do with him. But what he wants is what he gets, and Hazel just might have something else altogether to fear.

This book is not a guide on how to find love. It is a collection of thoughts from a girl in her twenties who loved deeply, got attached too fast, confused obsession with passion, survived breakups, felt lonely in relationships, and learned how to come back to herself. It is for you if you have ever asked yourself "is this love or am I just scared to be alone?" If you have cried over someone who barely noticed. If you are single, heartbroken, in a relationship, or somewhere in between. If even one page makes you feel less alone, then it was worth writing. So... shall we be friends?

At the height of her fame, Haerin Moon has everything-wealth, talent, beauty, and a name that opens every door. Then she wakes up with a strange mark burned into her skin after a night she cannot fully remember. By morning, the world has begun to forget her. Invitations vanish. Cameras turn away. Indifference replaces recognition. What should be impossible becomes terrifyingly clear: Haerin has been cursed, stripped piece by piece from the socialite throne she fought to build, condemned to fade into irrelevance. The curse traces back to a first date she never meant to accept-and the man who sat across from her, elegant, enigmatic, and unmistakably peculiar. Yoru Tsukishima was never just a patron of the arts, nor merely a charming eccentric. He is a doorway into a hidden world. Now, caught between vanishing influence and growing power she doesn't understand, Haerin must navigate a web of secrets and a romance that feels as dangerous as it is irresistible. Because in a world where magic is real and attention is currency, losing everything may be the price of becoming something more. And the question is no longer whether Haerin can break the curse-but whether she still wants to. ‧̍̊·̊‧̥°̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥‧̥·̊‧̍̊ ♡ °̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥ ·͙*̩̩͙˚̩̥̩̥*̩̩̥͙☾°̩̥☽·̩̩̥͙*̩̩̥͙˚̩̥̩̥*̩̩͙‧͙ °̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥ ♡ ‧̍̊·̊‧̥°̩̥˚̩̩̥͙°̩̥‧̥·̊‧̍̊ Participant of the || Open Novella Contest 2026.

Aliyah is just your average girl with a not-so-average obsession with K-pop, oversized hoodies, and embarrassing herself in public. So when she falls (literally) in front of her favorite idol while on a date with a too-pretty-to-be-real guy, she chalks it up to her usual chaotic energy. But then things start getting... weird. Like texting-until-2-a.m.-with-a-guy-who-actually-listens weird. Like private fashion shows, mysterious phone calls, and being asked for fashion advice by people who look like they've walked off the cover of a K-drama. It's the kind of week that makes you wonder: Is this what main character energy feels like? Or did I hit my head harder than I thought?

Short Stories about weird and random topics. The main topics are variations of the title "Why I Threw My Life Away" as different stories. This is the first one shot book I started so it's more scattered and less sorted around one topic. If you're looking for murder and death and stories with little to no original plan other than a single source of inspiration, this is the right book for you. If you want more direct topic one shots check out my other books on this account and follow so you'll be updated if I add another!
