Gollum It Burns Us

Burning with Love and Lies

In the picturesque hills of a secluded village, Ophelia lives— a girl whose past is a mysterious fog. With no memory of the days before her arrival at the "Golden Barrel" inn, she is kept by the Krüger family as a servant, never truly accepted as part of their own. Marked by abuse and a life full of rejection, Ophelia grows into a quiet but relentlessly strong soul. Her extraordinary beauty and delicate appearance evoke admiration in the village community, yet they are also the reason for her daily suffering under the Krügers. Ophelia is forced to navigate a world built on lies and harshness—a world where love has become a foreign concept, and each day is overshadowed by the painful memories of mistreatment. The Krügers treat her like a burden, always the "other," continuously pushed aside. Yet within her burns a flame that cannot be easily extinguished. Driven by a mysterious chain of events and a treasured amulet she clutches during the rare moments of freedom, Ophelia begins searching for the truth about her origins and her place in the world. Who is she really? Where does she come from? And what lies behind the web of deceit that has shaped her life? Burning with Love and Lies is the story of a girl who grows between the thorns of abuse and the shimmering stars of hope. It is a tale of the painful journey to self-discovery, the courage to confront the dark secrets of the past, and the unwavering longing for true love and acceptance. Ophelia must learn to find her own strength—and transform into the woman she is meant to be. But will she manage to escape the flames of lies and find the love she's been longing for?

Rays of Us

In the dystopian city of Rylos, where the government dictates love through a behavioral score-based lottery, Nico Knight is a man who’s always gotten what he wants. A nightclub tycoon with a reputation, he’s never had to answer to anyone until the lottery pairs him with Odalis, a quiet librarian with an air of calm that feels almost too controlled. To Nico, Odalis is a puzzle of a woman too ordinary, too unremarkable to pique his interest. But there’s something about her stillness that begins to intrigue him. Beneath the surface, he senses a storm she’s carefully hiding. Nico finds himself questioning whether he really knows what he wants or if his true challenge lies in the mystery of Odalis herself. (Sneak peak scene) Nico slouched on the couch, drunk, eyes fixed on Odalis as she read, the quiet hum of the room wrapping around them like a soft cocoon. Nico: You know, I never imagined a woman like you would be in my life. Quiet, composed... not my taste. Odalis (without looking up): And what did you imagine? Nico: Someone like me. Loud. Reckless. Odalis: Sorry for the disappointment. He blinked, his eyelids heavy, the pull of sleep growing stronger. Nico: “You’re like... an angel, in the wrong place.” His head dropped back, surrendering to sleep. Odalis glanced at him, a faint smile playing at her lips. Odalis (whispering): “You’re wrong, Nico Knight. Maybe the wrong place is exactly where I need to be.” She tucked him in, the soft rustle of fabric the only sound, and returned to her book. The silence between them now felt strangely comfortable.
