    ▪︎▪︎¤▪︎▪︎ Existentially exhausted and miserable, Yoo Cheol is only biding his time until his grief eventually consumes him. When will that time come? He's not certain, but one thing is for sure: He longs to be in Shin Eunho's arms again. There's nothing he wouldn't give to feel the warmth of his kisses once more! The only issue that stands in his way is that they're separated by life and death. Literally. So when he wakes up in an orphanage entire eras away from his timeline, he thinks his despair has finally driven him to the point of insanity. In reality, Cheol had really reincarnated as his 16-year old self into a suburban town in South Korea in 2012. With no knowledge whatsoever of any technology, and whatever basic social skills needed to survive in modern Korea, and on top of that being required to attend the town's high school, matters couldn't possibly get any worse! Except. Except, somewhere within this chaotic town and amongst the unwarranted high school drama, Eunho lives. He breathes. The same person, the same soul across different worlds, untouched by the memories of his past life with Cheol. By divine intervention, it seems like Cheol has been given a second chance to rewrite fate with his love once again, Eunho. But second chances are never given for free. Because fate always demands something in return. * ALL artwork included in this work is mine, unless specified otherwise!

    What if one day you woke up and discovered that the life you shared with your family and friends had been nothing more than a dream? What if none of it was real? That was exactly how I felt when I opened my eyes to the sharp, throbbing pain that pulsed through my body. The white hospital ceiling stared back at me, cold and unforgiving. I wanted to believe it wasn't real-that this was just another nightmare I would soon wake up from. But reality was staring me in the face. I had promised myself I would never let this happen again. Never again would I endure the insults, the lies, the manipulation, or the mental abuse. So how had I fallen this low? How had I allowed him to treat me this way? Because I believed he loved me. The candlelit dinners, the passionate nights, the expensive gifts, the dramatic declarations of love-they were all part of the perfect illusion. To everyone else, I was the lucky one. My friends envied the life I seemed to have. But none of them knew the truth. None of them could imagine that I, Sarah Dawson, was living with a devil disguised as the perfect man.

    After years of losing herself in a life that no longer feels like her own, she makes a choice that scares her more than staying ever did: she leaves. With nothing but an RV, a notebook, and a dream to finally find the woman she used to be, she sets out on a journey across America-not to escape her past, but to understand it. Every highway, small town, and hidden trail brings new stories, unexpected challenges, and pieces of herself she thought were gone forever. But healing isn't as simple as putting miles between yesterday and today. The memories she tried to outrun still follow her, and the road has a way of revealing truths she wasn't ready to face. Somewhere between quiet sunsets, unfamiliar places, and the courage to begin again, she discovers that the greatest journey isn't measured by the states she visits or the miles she travels... It's measured by how far she's willing to go to find herself. One Mile More is a heartfelt story of freedom, self-discovery, resilience, and the unexpected moments that change us forever.

    Is it just me... or does growing sometimes feel like grieving? Not because you miss who they are, but because you remember who they used to be. We spend so much time holding on to memories that we forget people are allowed to change... Maybe the hardest part isn't letting go. Maybe it's accepting that some chapters were only ever meant to be chapters.

    📖 Some stories don't begin with a first kiss. 🎼 This one begins with a sound. 💞 And two heartbeats that would sync somewere along the way - between a pink guitar, a stolen song and feeling that some heartbreaks are meant to show you who you can become. Crystal stopped singing the day her mother died. Years later, music still feels like a wound she can't quite touch- until Fate starts actting like it has too much free time on its hands. Staying invisible becomes difficult after a chance encounter in a music shop brings Steven Curtis into her life. A musician with reckless charm. A boy that has a way of making moments happen and changing everything after. And walking away... only seems to bring them closer. At the same time, Ryan, her longtime crush, suddenly becomes closer than ever. Two boys - that see something in her - she has yet to see herself. A public humiliation and one rehearsal video turns her into hallway conversation overnight. A dare not expected. A first kiss she never asked for. A competition that could change her future. As friendships shift, rivalries ignite, and the school's most talked-about band becomes part of her everyday life, Crystal finds herself pulled back toward the one thing she thought she'd left behind forever: 🎼 music. But finding her voice again means taking the spotlight and facing fears she has spent years avoiding. Because growing up isn't always about choosing who you love. Sometimes it's about choosing who you want to become. Vibrato isn't just a coming of age musical romance. It's the first note in a series of slow-burn romance with high-impact emotional beats. For readers who enjoy: ✨ Slow burn romance ✨ Music-driven stories ✨ Emotional character development ✨ Friendship & found family ✨ Love triangles ✨ Audio-cinematic storytelling Thank you for reading. 💚 New chapters drop every Wednesday & Saturday

    "Home" is a simple word-until you lose it. I was just a child when I believed life would always stay the same. I grew up in Saudi Arabia, surrounded by family, familiar streets, and dreams that seemed certain. Then, one decision changed everything. I left behind the only home I had ever known and returned to India, where I had to rebuild my life from the beginning. This is not the story of a hero. It's the story of an ordinary person trying to find his place in a world that kept changing around him. A journey through childhood memories, family bonds, unexpected loss, cultural identity, hope, failure, and the quiet strength it takes to keep moving forward when life refuses to go as planned. Every chapter is based on true events. Some names and identifying details have been changed to protect the privacy of the people involved, but the emotions and experiences are real. If you've ever felt like you didn't belong, had to start over, or wondered whether life would ever make sense again, this story is for you. Welcome to my journey.

    Most Hunters die once. Elias Vargas keeps coming back. At 19, Elias is one of Paradise Academy's most promising Hunter students. Quiet. Efficient. Difficult to kill. Command calls him Black Spear, a weapon forged for the things that wait beyond the edge of the world. Paradise Academy calls him a student. Elias isn't sure either of them are right. When a mission ends with another impossible death and an even more impossible return, questions begin following him back to campus. Questions about where he was, why he disappeared, and about the things Command would rather remain buried. The problem is that some truths are dangerous to speak. And some are impossible. As friendships deepen and old loyalties begin to crack, Elias finds himself caught between the person everyone needs him to be and the person he's no longer sure he's allowed to become. Because survival has a cost. Because ghosts don't come back unchanged. And because the road he's been walking for years is heading toward something far worse than death. Silence is better than screaming. Until silence becomes the thing that's killing you.
