    "The energy emanating from her was chaotic but not malicious; it was an echo of pain, exhaustion, and a loneliness so deep it broke Lux's heart. In an instinctive gesture, Lux reached out and took the girl's hand." Fleeing the smoldering ashes of her home and the echo of past mistakes, Jinx collapses in hostile territory. Wounded and consumed by loneliness, her fate seems sealed within the frigid and unforgiving streets of Demacia. Luxanna Crownguard, for her part, knows what it means to bleed in silence. Behind her dazzling smiles and noble silks, she wages a secret war against the magic burning in her veins. In a nation that punishes her kind with death, Lux is smothering under the weight of her heritage. A clandestine encounter alters their destinies. By snatching Jinx from the clutches of death and sheltering her in her sanctuary, Lux finds the courage she always lacked, while Jinx discovers a human warmth she thought extinct. Between whispers and shadows, they forge an unbreakable alliance, baring their scars and most terrifying truths. But hiding a fugitive under the watchful eye of Garen Crownguard is to gamble with fate. With the Mageseekers lurking and the family circle tightening, the perfect facade of lies begins to crumble. Will the fragile, intense heat of their bond be enough to save them from condemnation, or will they burn together in the fires of their own rebellion? --- Series Info & Disclaimer The Princess and the Fugitive is the first volume of Legacies of Runeterra: A Saga of Light and Chaos, the epic story of how the most improbable of unions can save the world. --- [Legacies of Runeterra: The Princess and the Fugitive] was created under Riot Games' "Legal Jibber Jabber" policy using assets owned by Riot Games.

    🍬 A very slow burn story : War used to think promises were simple. You make them. You keep them. That's it. Then Yin disappeared. No goodbye that made sense and no answers anymore. Just an empty space that never really stopped existing. Years passed. The foster home turned into something distant, almost unreal. But the candy wrappers, the flashlight, and that promise under a sky they were too young to understand still didn't fade. Because some people don't leave cleanly. Some of them just... stay behind in pieces. Then a stranger starts showing up in War's life. And nothing about it feels random for long. Old wounds begin opening in ways he never expected. The closer he gets to the truth, the more he realizes maybe the story he spent years believing isn't the real one. Maybe some promises were never broken at all. 🔺Disclaimer : This story is purely fictional and written for entertainment purposes. © [yinwarmaze], [2026].

    Lian fell in love with Ren at seventeen, one autumn afternoon when he shared his umbrella without saying a single word. She waited five years for a call that never came. Now he's back. But not the way she remembers him. And she's no longer alone: Leo, her boyfriend, sees her too. Cares for her. Waits for her. And he has no intention of giving up. Three people. A story of love that arrived at the wrong time. A cup of tea with exactly the right amount of sugar. And the question that gives this novel its name: "Can love wait for an 'I love you'... or can an 'I love you' turn into absence?" ━━━ 📖 About this story: This is not a traditional novel. It's written from inside each character's head - no narrator. The protagonists think out loud, repeat themselves, contradict themselves, lie to themselves. What may seem "redundant" is how they inhabit the silence. Read it slowly. ☕ A slow, introspective, melancholy romance. For readers who love stories where what is NOT said weighs more than what is. ━━━ Updates: Wednesdays and Sundays · Ongoing

An arrangement with Iris Gregory offers everything he should want-a respected family, a stable future, and a clear path forward. Then he meets her brother. Christian Gregory has no interest in making Logan comfortable. He questions his choices, challenges his convictions, and sees through his carefully maintained composure with unsettling ease. The more time they spend together, the harder Logan finds it to ignore the truth: the person who understands him best is the one person he should never want. As his engagement moves closer to becoming permanent, Logan must choose between the life he promised himself he would live and the feelings he never saw coming.

"𝙄 𝙙𝙤𝙣'𝙩 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠." 🎞️:Harry Potter And The Order Of The Pheonix- 💌:Harry Potter x Fem!Diggory!OC The summer after Cedric Diggory dies, Carla Diggory learns that grief doesn't arrive quietly-it settles in the spaces between conversations, in unopened letters, in a house that no longer feels like home. Her father is certain about what happened, and the world seems certain too. Only Carla is not. Not entirely. Because Harry Potter is not a murderer. At least, she doesn't think he is. But belief is a fragile thing when it is constantly questioned, and even certainty begins to blur when everyone around you is so sure of the opposite. When Carla returns to Hogwarts for her fifth year, nothing is as simple as it once was. Harry is no longer just another classmate she trusts without thinking. He is a question she can't stop asking herself, and a silence she doesn't know how to break. Harry, meanwhile, doesn't know what she believes. Only that something has shifted between them, and that whatever it is, neither of them knows how to name it. As whispers grow louder and the truth becomes harder to hold onto, Carla finds herself caught between what she feels, what she is told, and what she is afraid to believe. Because in a year where nothing feels stable, even the smallest distance between two people who used to understand each other might be the most dangerous thing of all.

    "For our future: Uncertain, happy, or miserable. However it may be, as long as I'm with you."

Between the weight of silence and the fear of confessing, will they play it safe or will they have the courage to risk everything to discover the truth? Only one thing is clear: once they cross that line, there's no going back. ════════ ✧ ════════ =͟͟͞͞➳ Telemachus EPIC x FemOC. =͟͟͞͞➳ Crumbs of Circe x Hermes on Chapters 3, 7, & 9. =͟͟͞͞➳ Updates every two weeks. =͟͟͞͞➳ Fanarts used for the cover and banners: @Wasaami on Tiktok and @Roleder.Art on Instagram.

Now there are rules, public appearances, accidental jealousy, way too much hand holding, and a growing problem neither of them seems willing to talk about: maybe pretending to be in love would be easier if they actually hated each other.
