You Were Once My One Companion

“I was always there, loving you silently... while you were loving someone else out loud.” Kyle Navarro has spent his entire life in the background of his best friend’s spotlight. Quiet, loyal, and emotionally guarded, he’s the type of person who listens more than he speaks — especially when it comes to Alex Reyes. Alex, the campus heartthrob and Kyle’s childhood best friend, is everything Kyle isn’t: confident, outgoing, effortlessly magnetic. And heartbreakingly straight. Or so Kyle thought. When Alex’s relationship suddenly falls apart, he begins leaning on Kyle more than ever — with late-night calls, subtle glances, and questions that stir up emotions Kyle tried so hard to bury. As their bond deepens and the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur, Kyle is torn between hope and heartbreak. Because loving Alex was never the plan… but letting go might be impossible. Will Alex realize Kyle was the one he’s been searching for all along? Or will Kyle remain the best friend in the shadows — always loving, never loved back? > “You were everything I ever wanted… I just wish you were the one who wanted me too."

They say war takes a piece of you. For him, it took everything — and gave something else in return. In a war-torn future where humanity clings to survival across shattered worlds, a single fireteam wages a desperate retreat from the alien force known as the Upyr — a biomechanical species that doesn’t kill its enemies… it repurposes them. When a mission goes sideways, the unnamed protagonist is left behind, captured, and dragged into the nightmare of an Upyr research facility. There, beneath black suns and sterile lights, he becomes the subject of grotesque experiments: his body flayed, remade, and fused with invasive alien technology — not as a soldier, but as a prototype. Implanted with the Carrion Fork — a living nanite weapon — and sheathed in Wraithskin stealth armor, he emerges as something no longer human. Memories blur, identity fragments, and purpose becomes a ghost. But he remembers one thing: his name was once spoken with love. And the ones who left him behind? They're still out there. Still fighting. Now, hunted by the Upyr and feared by the species he once protected, he must decide if there’s enough left of him to save anything — or if the monster they built is all that remains.

Iris Wren has spent years holding the pieces together—after losing her family, after watching her brother die, after becoming the adult in a home with a guardian too shattered to speak most days. The world thinks she’s doing fine. They don’t know she works three jobs, can’t sleep without the closet light on, and draws the same pair of brown eyes in every sketch. Lucian is the only thing that makes sense. He understands her silence. Knows how to find her when she hides. Says the things no one else does. They meet at the edge of her breaking point, when she's numb and just starting a new school. No one questions him. Not her teachers, not the barista who takes both their orders, not even her. But as the year unfolds, as she begins to connect with a classmate who refuses to let her vanish, and as Lucian begins glitching in ways that feel off, Iris starts to question what’s real. The truth is simple, devastating, and silent. Lucian never existed. But the pain he helped her survive? That was always real.

Synopsis – When We Were Strangers Emma Cruz and Liam Navarro have known each other since elementary school — two quiet souls sharing the same classrooms, hallways, and lunch breaks, yet never truly noticing each other. They weren’t friends, weren’t enemies, just two names that passed each other like strangers on a train. But during their final year of high school, fate brings them side by side once again — this time, as classmates in the same section. What begins as small talk soon grows into something deeper. Emma, the driven and organized honor student, and Liam, the quiet boy with a poet’s soul, find unexpected comfort in each other’s presence. Slowly, a quiet bond forms — one built not on grand gestures, but on shared silences, lingering glances, and the steady unfolding of trust. As they navigate academic pressures, family expectations, and the uncertainty of their future paths, Emma and Liam begin to redefine what it means to really *know* someone. But when life forces them to confront unspoken feelings and the possibility of separation after graduation, they must decide: will they remain just two people who finally noticed each other too late, or can their story become something more? Told across thirty emotionally rich chapters, *When We Were Strangers* is a slow-burn love story about timing, growth, and the quiet kind of love that blooms when you least expect it — the kind that changes everything.

Soleia Margaux Delgado and Nikolai Adrian Lucero were each other's everything in high school—first love, first heartbreak, and the memory that time could never quite erase. Life had other plans for them, and fate, as cruel as it was mysterious, pulled them apart just before they could imagine a future together. They went their separate ways, chasing ambition and dreams that refused to wait. Years later, Nikolai stands at the pinnacle of success—a billionaire before thirty, founder of a prestigious global tech empire. But behind the steel walls of his empire and the polished façade of his suits, he harbors a silent ache for the one woman he never stopped loving. Soleia, now a fiercely independent accountant and millionaire in her own right, has carried the weight of her family’s legacy as both its breadwinner and protector. Love, for her, has long been buried beneath balance sheets and survival. Romance is a luxury she no longer believes she can afford. When fate brings them back together inside the very company Nikolai built, neither expects the storm of emotions that their reunion would awaken. Soleia’s professionalism is tested as old feelings resurface. Nikolai, ever patient, refuses to let her slip away a second time. But love the second time around isn’t as simple as picking up where they left off. With careers, reputations, and past wounds between them, they must confront the painful question: Can two people who chose ambition over love find a way to have both? “You’re the Unforgettable One” is a poignant tale of missed chances, undying love, and the quiet battles fought in the name of dreams. A story that proves that sometimes, the heart never really lets go.

At Starlake High, 17-year-old Calla Mercer is just trying to survive her senior year—dodging heartbreak, navigating social hierarchies, and keeping her late father's mysterious research a secret. But everything changes the day a meteor shower rains down strange, luminous dust over their small town. Soon after, a sleek black horse appears out of nowhere—literally—from thin air, in the middle of the school track field. No one knows where it came from, but Calla does. It’s her childhood wish—one she made at seven years old when she whispered into her father’s experimental machine, hoping for a friend who would never leave her. Now, more wishes are coming true around campus, with bizarre and chaotic consequences. Nerds become prom kings overnight. Dead pets reappear. Crushes confess love... only to vanish the next day. The source? Her father’s forgotten machine has reactivated, tapping into quantum fields and making subconscious desires real. But it’s unstable—and dangerous. Caught between stopping the growing chaos and protecting her own wish-come-true, Calla teams up with Ash Reyes, a brooding science prodigy with secrets of his own—and maybe a wish that could destroy everything. As the town edges toward collapse, and reality starts unraveling, Calla must choose: hold on to her heart's deepest desire, or risk everything to set things right. Because in a world where wishes come true, love is the most powerful—and the most dangerous—force of all.
