Silent Dilemmas

Some hearts break quietly — others learn to live with the noise. Elena Hamilton has lived her life by the rules. The perfect daughter in an unforgiving home, she’s been raised to believe the high society rules: Good girls stay quiet, work hard, and never lose control. But when the Browns enter her world — with their immaculate manners, high society charm, and their dangerously perfect son — everything she thought she knew begins to crack. Nathan Brown is everything Elena’s parents admire and everything she shouldn’t want. He’s charming, brilliant, and flawlessly polite — the kind of man who seems made for spotlight and legacy. But beneath the polish lies something darker. Years of pressure, a secret of the past, and parental perfection have carved him into someone who knows how to smile while he destroys. And Elena? She’s his next game. As Elena falls deeper into his orbit, Nathan’s lies and her innocence begin to blur. Yet when his mask finally slips, it’s Adrian — her quiet, steadfast best friend — who stands beside her, refusing to let her break. He’s loved her silently, watching her fall for someone who only knows how to wound. But love isn’t a rescue — and neither of them are who they were before. Between power, betrayal, and the ghosts of their parents’ pasts, Elena must decide whether to remain the girl who obeys or become the woman who chooses. Because in a world built on control and appearances… even silence can be a rebellion. A slow-burn collision between restraint and desire — where healing and danger walk side by side.

FORBIDDEN HEARTS: THE LINE WE CROSSED

For six years, Avery Chen has lived under Julian Hawke's roof. He became her stepfather when she was seventeen—a grieving girl who'd just lost her father, gaining a man who treated her with careful, respectful distance. He gave her stability, paid for her college, asked about her day with genuine interest. He was safety incarnate: distinguished, controlled, untouchable. She told herself the flutter in her chest when he smiled was gratitude. That the way she noticed his hands, his voice, the silver threading his dark hair, was just admiration for a good man. She buried her crush so deep even she almost believed it was gone. Until the night she brings Derek home—her mediocre boyfriend who treats her like an accessory. She's had too much to drink at a party, laughing too loud, letting Derek paw at her in the hallway. And she sees it: the flash of something dark and possessive in Julian's steel-blue eyes before his expression shutters back to polite concern. "Avery. A word. Alone." That night, nothing physical happens. But everything changes. Because Julian Hawke has been holding back a hurricane. Six years of watching her grow into a woman, six years of midnight thoughts he's ashamed of, six years of loving her in a way that makes him hate himself. He's kept his distance, been the parent she needed, never crossed the line. But seeing another man touch her breaks something in his carefully constructed control. Suddenly Avery notices things she'd trained herself to ignore: how Julian's jaw clenches when Derek calls. How his hand lingers when passing her coffee. How he stands too close in the kitchen, his breath warm on her neck, before stepping away like she burned him. How he watches her with hunger he can barely mask. Her dreams betray her—forbidden fantasies of his hands, his mouth, his body claiming hers with the intensity he shows everything he does. She wakes aching, guilty, terrified. By day, every accidental touch is warfare. His fingers brushing hers. His chest against her back when reaching past her. His voice dropping low when they're alone, turning innocent words into unspoken promises. The tension becomes unbearable. Dangerous. Wrong. But desire doesn't care about morality. And Julian Hawke has spent six years being noble. His control is finally breaking, and Avery is about to discover that forbidden never felt this devastating—or this necessary. When you've been each other's safe harbor, what happens when you become each other's storm?

Heartbroken, humiliated, and ready to run, she crosses paths with the last man she ever expected to notice her: Leon Hale — the cold, ruthless, untouchable CEO of Hale Group… and her powerful, unreadable boss.

A mutually beneficial arrangement that gives Amelia protection and gives Leon what he needs for a massive family-trust inheritance battle. But the moment Amelia becomes Mrs. Hale, the entire world changes. Her ex becomes obsessed. Her sister becomes furious. The elite families whisper about the secretary who somehow landed the city’s most desired bachelor. And Leon? The man with ice in his veins begins to show cracks—dangerous cracks. Possessive touches.

Just when Amelia starts to believe their marriage might be more than a contract, a woman from Leon’s past walks into their home and declares one thing that shatters everything: “I’m Leon’s real fiancée.” Now Amelia must decide: Run from the man whose world could destroy her… or fight for a marriage she never intended to want—but can no longer imagine losing. A story of betrayal, revenge, accidental love, and a cold CEO who learns there is only one person he will ever break his rules for: his wife.

New Bad Beginning [eng]

A witch without faith. A war without heroes. This is not the Dragon Age you remember. The main character of the work is Morrigan. The one... The overbearing, intelligent, sarcastic and not-so-mysterious companion of the protagonist of Dragon Age: Origins. In contrast to the original, the entire focus of the story shifts to this amazing daughter of Flemette. By fate, as in the canon, the witch leaves Korkari. But it is not only the threat of Blight that drives her on her difficult adventures, relentlessly flooding the south of Ferelden with darkness and death. The attack... And the personal entanglements the Sorceress finds herself in force her to become more active. In the name of survival, she transforms from follower to leader. From now on, the girl no longer chooses who to stay with, but who is trustworthy, or at least curious enough to stay. Others will lose the support of the reluctant southerner. Ambition, growing amidst the gathering darkness of madness and the flames of civil war, will determine where the new path will take her. A tangle of wit, magic and contingency knows no bounds. The narrative is based on a classic Dragon Age episode, centred on a desperate band of disparate individuals facing the threat of the Fifth Dawn. There are changes of varying degrees to the series of events that have already occurred and future events that are inherent to the canon. Some are on the surface. Others are less visible. Who is the saviour here? And is there one at all? What if the familiar characters had a slightly different, more down-to-earth motivation? Or if a series of miraculous rescues didn't happen? Characters with a prominent role in the canon might be left behind, die or suffer unforeseen consequences. I invite the reader to the fire, to experience this small but hopefully fascinating experiment together.

Married To The Mad Vampire Lord

His lips hovered near her ear, his voice a dark whisper against her skin. "You may fear me, little bride, but I will teach your body to crave me… to need me, until I am all you ever want." --- Belle was never meant to be the bride. But when her parents cried to her about how her beautiful sister could not be married to such a man, she was forced to take her sister’s place. To prevent war between the two worlds of humans and vampires, the kings decided to sign a peace treaty with a marriage, but the only man they could offer for this marriage was a vampire said to be mad and completely heartless. When they said heartless, they meant really heartless, but Belle, being a naive girl her whole life, had no idea what she was stepping into by agreeing to this marriage. At first, he appeared innocent, a man completely opposite to all the rumors around him, until she slowly began to realize every single thing said about the mad vampire was true, or perhaps even worse! He was a man who walked in the path of darkness. He knew no light and showed no mercy, even to those who were not his enemies. He had no heart to love, no emotions but dark ones to feel for anything or anyone. But all of a sudden, when he set his eyes on her, he decided he wanted to keep her, and Belle's naive world began to take a different turn because the mad vampire was hellbent on tainting her innocent soul. Expect "Now, can we forget this happened and enjoy the night?" He arched an amused brow at her, making Belle's heart drop to her stomach as she recalled the so-called wedding night. She hurriedly pulled away from him, her face flaming with embarrassment. From everything she had heard about this night, she was not ready to experience it with this man. The women whispering about it in Mr. Marchant's shop had said one would hate their husband's presence after it and be disgusted by the act. It was not an act meant for pleasure for any woman but torture. Now that she realized her husband would do the same with her, she swallowed hard and nervously clutched her dress. "I...I am not feeling well, My Lord, I—" "Rohan," he cut her off with a tone of amusement. "Use my name when you address me, sweetheart. You looked quite energetic when you tried to go after the ring for someone who isn't feeling well, but," he sighed softly, "I've always been a generous man. I won't let you stress yourself tonight." Belle began to sigh in relief and smile in her mind that he wouldn't push her for the wedding night ceremony. She was even about to part her lips and agree that he was indeed generous and even offer him a thank you when he continued to speak, causing the momentary relief to be replaced by dread. "I will pamper you tonight, and you won’t have to lift a hand. I will give you all the pleasure since you are feeling unwell. Take it as the first lesson in my plan to make you forget love and welcome lust." "...!" "Lie on the bed for me, Isa." Belle felt her throat go dry at that strict command. "I...I..." She began but could not find any words to say to make him spare her tonight. What had she got herself into? Belle thought as a pit seemed to form in her stomach, a deep, gnawing dread. "Do you need me to carry you to the bed, or would you rather walk there yourself?" Rohan questioned with dark mirth in his voice and eyes as he watched her like a hawk. He could tell she was nervous, but what to do? She had brought herself into his world. Belle began to walk slowly to the bed at a snail’s pace, as if delaying it would help prevent the dreadful act from happening tonight. She could feel him following closely behind her. When she reached the bed, she used her shaky hands to move the drapes aside and carefully sat at the edge of it, her hands folded nervously on her lap. She felt his piercing gaze on her, but she dared not look up at him. "Lie down," he ordered softly. MATURE CONTENT, NO RAPE!!
