A marriage signed on paper was never meant to feel real. Rehman has already buried love once - along with the part of himself that believed in it. Hardened by a violent past and haunted by loss, he agrees to a contract marriage for reasons that have nothing to do with emotions and everything to do with necessity. Rules are clear. Boundaries are absolute. Feelings are forbidden. Ulfat, on the other hand, was supposed to have a different future - one built on choice, familiarity, and perhaps love. But a single incident shatters her plans, forcing her into an agreement that ties her life to a man who treats affection like a weakness. Under one roof, between unspoken grief and carefully drawn lines, resentment turns into understanding, silence into companionship, and distance into something far more dangerous. What begins as a temporary arrangement slowly becomes a battle neither of them expected - because the one condition written nowhere in the contract was the hardest to follow: Don't fall in love. A "slow-burn" story about healing, trust, and a love that grows where it was never meant to exist. Disclaimer: I do not own the characters, universe, or original storyline referenced in this work.

+++THIS IS A SEQUEL - To be able to follow the storyline, please read „Unravelling" and „Dissolving" first!+++ Lily and her brothers are stuggling to come to terms with yet another tragedy that occurred to one of their own. The previously tight-knit family is on the brink of falling apart as some members of the Taylor Clan are barely holding it together. Only being months away from finally reaching her goal of officially becoming a teenager, Lily finds herself in the middle of the perfect storm, with only limited means to navigate through it.

Will the secrets, that are finally being unleashed upon her, paralyze her or make her more determined than ever to fix things? How will these revelations help her understand her oldest brothers' past actions? Together with the people who mean the world to her, Lily starts the last leg of her journey to discovery. What is the story behind her father's mysterious absence? Who are these creeps that are clearly after the Taylors? How did her sister Sienna really die and who is responsible for her death? Was her accident the reason for the brothers' move to the other side of the country or is there something else? And what is her mother's role in all of this, if any at all? All these questions will finally be answered. But their impact on this curious, empathic, overthinking and reckless-at-the-wrong-time almost-teenager is anything but foreseeable. Lily can only hope that her previously reliable safety net called friends and family is up to the task to support her on this emotional rollercoaster.

Two lovers who once burned bright with a love that felt inevitable-intense, consuming, and almost reckless in its certainty.

Just Read To Find Out 🙂 *Under Construction* I found a mistake

At Station 118, Aurora Russo and Evan Buckley have been inseparable for years - partners in chaos, confidants in quiet moments, and the kind of best friends who speak fluent sarcasm and shared glances. From the outside, it's all jokes and banter. But inside, something deeper has been growing. Aurora, who once only has her father Francesco Russo to call family, never imagined she'd find a second home in a firehouse. But with Bobby, Hen, Chimney, Eddie - and Buck - she finally understands what it means to belong. To be seen. To be understood. And Love? That's not a word she trusts. Not after watching her mother walk out at sixteen. Not after years of building walls to protect herself and her dad. But Buck? He's relentless in the softest way. He shows up. He listens. He stays. And no matter how hard Aurora tries to convince herself it's nothing, her heart keeps proving her wrong. He's not just trying to win her over. He's trying to show her that maybe - just maybe - love isn't a fairytale. It's real. And it's standing right in front of her.

This is not a story about what happens. It's about what almost does. At an Ivy League medical school, Isabelle Laurent is known as the Ice Queen-brilliant, distant, untouchable. No one gets close. No one stays. Alexander Whitmore was never supposed to be different. Charming, privileged, and infamous for never staying longer than a few weeks, he understands desire. What he doesn't understand, until Isabelle, is restraint. She believes he doesn't want her. He knows wanting her openly would destroy everything. So they choose the most dangerous thing instead: friendship. "The most dangerous thing about Alexander Whitmore was not his reputation, nor his charm, nor the power he would one day inherit. It was the fact that he never asked for anything from me, and somehow, without realizing it, I had begun to give him everything that mattered." Slow burn • Dual POV • Consent • Emotional intimacy

She arrives in the city hoping to disappear. After her older brother's sudden death, Katherine leaves behind the only home she has ever known, carrying nothing but grief and the belief that distance might quiet the past. In a place where no one knows her name, she builds a life in silence-working mornings in a small café on the edge of a busy financial district, learning how to exist without being seen. Before she leaves, she finds a hidden box in her brother's room. Inside are letters she was never meant to see. Most of them are simple at first-ordinary words, familiar handwriting, fragments of care she doesn't fully let herself read. She only opens a few before closing the box again, leaving the rest untouched as if keeping them sealed might keep something else from unraveling. In the city, life settles into routine. Early mornings. Familiar faces. The comfort of being unknown. It should be enough. But it isn't. A man begins to pass through her world each day-always at the same time, always just out of reach of notice. He does not speak to her. He does not look at her like she is anything more than part of the background. And she does not recognize him. Not once. And yet, something about his presence begins to linger where memory should be clear. As fragments of her brother's past begin to surface in small, unsettling ways, Katherine starts to understand that distance does not always mean escape-and some things follow you quietly, long after you think you've left them behind.

Lil Darkie-inspired story. This is how I used to feel about one-sided love, and how I feel about it now. It hurts, but it doesn't hurt that much anymore... Growth?

They say some people are meant to be remembered. Others... are meant to be forgotten. Hogwarts had seen both. Years after the war, after loss had carved its place into the castle walls, a new presence walked its halls. Lily-Odette Potter-brilliant, unpredictable, and far too powerful for her own good. Her name carried legacy-Lily-but she was nothing like her mother. Nothing anyone expected. She was clever enough to rival the brightest of wizards, bold enough to prank the most mischievous students, and chaotic enough to keep even the best-laid rules on their toes. Somewhere, lurking in the shadows of the classroom, a certain potions master was slowly realizing that trouble had just arrived. Some called her brilliant. Some called her dangerous. She didn't care. She had a mission, a promise, and nothing-not even the weight of history-would stand in her way. In the shadowed corridors of Hogwarts, someone was watching, quietly realizing that brilliance and chaos could be... dangerous in more ways than one. -------------------- Hello everyone ☺️ This is my first book and i hope you guys enjoy it. 🌸🌸 I have changed timeline a bit to fit the story. 😬 I'm keeping her love interest a secret for now. But you guys are welcome to guess in the comments.🩷🩷 All characters belong JK Rowling. Except a few that are my creations.

In the Accorded Realms, magic isn't free. Every spell leaves a receipt. Every life has a price. Thirteen-year-old Jasper Darkmoor knows his father died in an accident at the Scrivener's Guild. What he doesn't know is that "accident" is a lie-and the truth is buried in a black glass box in his attic. When Jasper opens the box, red ink floats in the air. It shows him the real record: his father's life was used to balance a hidden debt for the immortal House Aethel. A rounding error. A line item. A murder no one noticed. Now Jasper sees what others can't-the ledger of stolen lives, the crimson marks of unpaid debts crawling toward his heart. Hunted by Void Auditors and hunted by the golden lords of the Spire, he escapes to the only place that might protect him. The Knotted Ledger Academy. A living school of petrified trees, whispering books, and secrets sealed for five hundred years. There, Jasper discovers he is Unbound-one of the rare few who can trace hidden debts back to their source. His only allies: a disgraced heiress who severed her own bloodline, and a half-folk boy whose father was collected for less than a single Ore. The Midwinter Conclave approaches. Lord Elian Aethel will perform his Purification Rite. And Jasper must decide: expose the lie, or pay the ultimate debt with his own life. Every truth demands a cost. Every debt leaves a mark.
