Ashes Between Us by emmy67369

Eleanor never wanted this life. Married off to Boe-a wealthy man twice her age, known for his violence, infidelity, and sharp silences-she learned early that love can burn colder than hate. He drinks. He lies. He fights. She smokes to breathe through it. Bound by secrets and habits that rot from the inside out, their marriage becomes a quiet war. Neither wins. Neither surrenders. But when Boe dies suddenly in a car crash, Eleanor's world unravels in slow motion. Left alone with the ghosts of their home, she drowns herself in whiskey, cigarettes, and the endless hum of the television-until the static begins to sound like his voice. And when the grief becomes unbearable, she turns to darker fascinations: documentaries about killers, obsessions with control, and the calm that comes before destruction. What begins as mourning turns into method. What begins as love turns into revenge. By the time Eleanor's final act unfolds, the truth is already twisted beyond recognition-and no one will ever know where the lies end and the love begins. A toxic love story about denial, control, and the quiet violence between two broken souls-bound by the same ghost

Trapped by ayiannabarnes

You need to reach for their soft petals, feel their essence, remember what it is to grow.❞ - Christy Ann Martine There is no escaping the past, or what's to come. Ellie Davis knows that all too well. Even as she lays in the field, with the sinking sun and the fading blue sky, suspended in time; she knows it can't be that way forever. As much as she wants it to be. She turns to her side, wringing the daisy chain on her wrist. The evening summer breeze brushes against her exposed skin. Her lids fall shut. "I wish you were here." She says to no one, no one at all, her words lost in the wind. Ellie Davis has had anything but a normal life. Living in a small, tight-knit town with a family like hers and all the secrets with them - her only escape is the graveyard. No one else goes there, for obvious reasons. That is, until she meets a boy - one she's never seen before. The rest of the town is bound to unravel his story soon enough. After all, they know her's. Or at least, part of it. The new guy in town, however, no one knows anything about his. But when he meets her, his story almost seems like nothing compared to her's - and she doesn't even know it.
