Angst Stories

Elara Scott believed love was something you built, steady, patient, earned. After a childhood defined by chaos, Jonah Sterling's calm attention feels like oxygen: the quiet check-ins, the small touches, the safety of being wanted. But Jonah, heir to an old money East Coast dynasty and CEO of a powerful tech and security empire, only ever loved one woman. Sofia is the ghost his family still worships, the future he never stopped craving. When the board demands a "settled" image, Jonah chooses Elara not with devotion, but with convenience. In the Sterling world, Elara is an outsider in every room, enduring polished cruelty, public humiliation, and a husband who watches in silence. Even when an unexpected pregnancy gives them a daughter, Isla, Elara remains the wife who was never truly chosen. When Sofia returns and Jonah's attention begins to slip, first from Elara, then from Isla, Elara makes a decision that shatters the perfect façade: she leaves. But divorce doesn't erase Jonah's past. It exposes it, and forces Jonah to face the damage he allowed, the family that enabled it, and the woman who learned to live without him. A devastating, angst-filled story of second choice love, quiet cruelty, and a father fighting to repair the bond he nearly destroyed, after it's too late to save the marriage.

Some truths are too heavy to be spoken. So she carried it alone. While they blamed her. While they walked away. While she stayed silent. Five years later, the past returns, and so does everything they left unsaid.

After a fall on the ice and a minor concussion, Nina wakes up in 2004-inside the New York apartment of 32-year-old RPD officer Leon S. Kennedy. No phone, no ID, and no explanation. He claims she looks just like a woman he'd met before Except the woman he knows isn't from Texas. She isn't 18. She doesn't have pink hair. And she definitely is not from the year 2021. In this world, Raccoon City was rebuilt. The World Trade Center still stands. The Beatles never existed. Sleeping in the same bed might be the least complicated part of this mess. Although Leon desperately seems to disagree. DISCLAIMER: This is just a friendly fanfiction! I don't own any of the resident evil characters!

At twenty-two, she is a storm trapped in silk, bound by a sacred marriage vow to a man who is as much a stranger as he is her husband. Rana Vanraj Singh Rathore is a decade older, a man carved from the hard stone of the Mewar hills, powerful, possessive, and dangerously restrained. To the world, she is the poised princess. To him, she is a mystery he wants to unravel slowly, breath by agonizing breath. Behind the closed doors of the royal wing, the air thickens with a tension that neither of them can voice. It is in the way his gaze lingers on the curve of her neck, or how her pulse stutters whenever he stands close enough for her to feel the heat radiating from his skin. He is a flame that consumes everything in its path, and she is the one woman who refuses to be burnt. But in a palace where every shadow holds a secret, a single word can ignite a fire that no vow can contain. As the hunger she tries to bury begins to clash with the cold duty she was raised for, Vaidehi must face the truth. Loving him isn't just a choice; it is a surrender that will either liberate her or destroy them both.
