Will Feng Mei Hiu ever discover love and forge a new future, or will the shadows of his hatred ultimately consume him? ******* "I have been raped, humiliated, betrayed, used, and abused by the people I trusted," Feng Mei Hiu's smile was filled with pain, "the only thing that kept me alive, that made me sane, that kept me from being broken was my anger, my pain, and my faith." Feng Mei Hiu's blue eyes looked tranquil as he spoke. "Faith in myself, that one day I would make them all pay, suffer in more ways than I ever did." He smiled darkly, "I want to put them in hell and watch with a smile as they burn." "Let me stand by you; I can ensure they pay for everything. Just say the word." Han Yichen leaned in closer, their eyes locked with certainty. "You want to support me?" Feng Mei Hiu asked, surprised. "With all I've done, how could you possibly see me as anything but a monster?" "Monster?" Han Yichen embraced him tightly. "You’re not a monster; you’re my guiding star, my hope, my rescue, my angel. You lifted me from the darkness that nearly swallowed me, and now I, too, must return that gift." "I want them dead, Yichen; I want to watch them suffer and burn." "And that's exactly what we shall do, my love; we will burn their empire to the ground."

Silent whispers haunt the air, and warnings of an ancient, omnipotent force—the Silence—demand his attention.

Synopsis: My name is Seline Sylvester, and I’m a therapist. I started my career in hopes of helping others heal, of offering solace to those lost in their own minds. But little did I know, I was only running away from my own pain. My boyfriend, Adams, left me broken, and no amount of professional success could fill the emptiness he left behind. Then, everything changed when I was assigned to treat Jason Schneider. He’s not your typical patient—he’s a 32-year-old heir to a billion-dollar empire, seemingly impervious to everything I’ve ever encountered. Aloof, guarded, and carrying an air of mystery, Jason doesn’t fit the mold of someone who would seek therapy, much less need it. He’s more interested in playing games than talking about his feelings, and his wealth only makes him more untouchable. But I can’t help it. Something about him draws me in, a challenge I can’t resist. The more I try to understand Jason, the more secrets I uncover—secrets that make me question everything I thought I knew about myself and about the world I live in. As I dive deeper into his psyche, I realize I might be facing something far more dangerous than I ever imagined. I’m caught between my professional duty and the undeniable pull I feel toward him. Star Struck is my story—a journey of healing, discovery, and the fine line between helping someone and losing yourself in the process. Will I break through his walls? Or will I find myself unraveling in the process?

Madisyn thought she knew Chris. He was the quiet heartthrob at school, admired from afar, and when he noticed her, it felt like fate. Their connection was effortless-golden, even. She was athletic, outgoing, and full of life, while Chris was reserved, mysterious, and intoxicating in a way she couldn't resist. From stolen glances in the hallway to late-night conversations that felt like secrets, their love story unfolded like something out of a dream. But dreams can turn into nightmares. One night, Madisyn wakes up gasping for air, her heart pounding from the vivid nightmare that left her shaken to her core. In it, Chris tried to kill her. It felt so real-the coldness in his eyes, the way he moved with terrifying precision. But it was just a dream... right? As she navigates the school day, Madisyn struggles to shake off the unease clinging to her skin. The dream has left her questioning everything-her relationship, her instincts, even her own mind. Chris is still the same golden boy everyone adores, still looking at her like she's his world. But something is different. Or maybe, something has always been off, and she's only just now seeing it. Avoiding him should be easy, but Chris isn't one to let go without a fight. He seeks her out at lunch, pressing her with soft words and piercing stares. "Where have you been?" he asks. A simple question, but one that sends shivers down her spine. She lies. "Cheer practice." Chris smiles, but his eyes linger too long, as if he knows there's more to the story. As if he knows she's running. Madisyn isn't sure if she's running from him or from the truth that's clawing its way to the surface. But one thing is certain-what once felt like love is starting to feel like something far more dangerous. And the nightmare? It might not have been a nightmare at all.

Magic academy. Male and female lead characters. A world of sword and magic like any that exist, the only difference is the ones in it and the ones telling it. *Almost all chapters are under 1000 words, more in case it's an interesting story that should not be interrupted by difference in Chapter *No One 17 and Under Admitted because there is some erotic and steamy description in the story and because I'm not sure what the difference between Restricted means compared to No One 17 and Under Admitted, so better be safe than sorry. * All characters are not underage unless stated otherwise, and seriously this is a fantasy setting so no one looks their age. The story may or may not continue, chapters release are not predetermined so it will be short(probably) Any mention of people, places, negative terms/slang, etc that are somehow related to the real world one are should be assumed to be purely coincidence. * New and inexperience hence the long description (Very sorry, but thanks for reading)
