Even when I was surrounded by crowds, I felt alone. I felt suffocated as I felt like everything was on me. I wanted to break free and lose. Deep down I know what I just needed, but I can't have it. Then, he sauntered right into my life. Coaxed me into new found feelings that I have never experienced. I know myself that perhaps it was a clear hidden plea, that only him can answer.

Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

I'm trapped. I'm trapped in my own mind. I'm trapped in other people's opinions and perspectives that they give me. The side eyes and glances that this world can throw at me.

I feel suffocated even in my own space. The world that I created for myself. I let too many people in. I gave them the permission to be in my world, but have I given them the cue to ruin my life too? Maybe yes, maybe no. I'm too fazed to even give that a thought.

'Why not just run from all of this?'

Oh, yes. Running. I always do that. That's what I'm good at. Running from my fears, the rejections, the obvious problems and the judgement. But aren't we all good at that? But why can't I do that now?

"Maybe it's the only solution where you can't get hurt and where you can protect yourself, and maybe, just maybe the possibility of you being a failure will lessen." A stupid and childish thought that runs in my head daily. It lives on my head. I'm too selfless, a pushover, knows how to say no but doesn't have the will and the heart to say it directly.

Most people would say im just 'kind hearted', that I'm 'too nice for this world'. I want to laugh at them, pity them with their thoughts about how they see my life. I'm not kind. I'm not 'too nice for this world'. I'm a coward just living and striving with other people's sugar coated words and their standards.

I can't go on without the validation of other people. I mean, who wouldn't want the assurance and validation from other people. That nice surge, warm caress of other people's that gets right through you, with their sweet words.

I'll change. I want to change. Not for others, but for myself. I'll find my pace again and take back everything that was taken away from me. My pride, confidence, words and identity. I'll live for myself and myself only, with no one to hinder and conquer the laid out plan I have. No one.

Until, he came along. My plan was ruined. But he was the distraction that I openly welcomed. He wanted me, the me that I kept for so long, the me that I wanted to hide and forget forever. But he caught me in his trap. He was my only exception.

He wanted my submission and love. But was I ready to give it all when I can't even figure out myself? But he was too good.

"There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds. I believe that words are strong, that they can overwhelm what we fear when fear seems more awful than life is good. You are bent, but not broken. Scarred, but not disfigured."

Inferno Heiress: Freed From Hell To Reclaim My Empire

Clara Voss

Hayley was betrayed by those who should have loved her most. To save their precious adopted daughter from a punishment she deserved, her own parents sent Hayley straight into a living hell—an infamous prison where survival demanded cruelty, and weakness meant death. Four years later, the girl who had entered those iron gates no longer existed. She emerged with a single, unbreakable rule carved into her soul: Every betrayal would be repaid tenfold. The day she walked free, the world trembled. A convoy of luxury cars lined the road. A legion of loyal followers awaited her triumphant return. Her father tried to buy her silence with money. But money had long lost its power over her. Her adopted sister hid behind sweet words and false kindness. But empty smiles no longer fooled her. Everything that had once been stolen would be reclaimed—piece by piece. When her parents attempted to tie themselves to the city's most feared man by offering their adopted daughter, Hayley's lips curved into a cold smirk. "Not on my watch." Backed by a legendary hacker, shadowy allies, and an entire prison willing to burn the world for her, Hayley dismantled her enemies with terrifying precision. Then the tyrant noticed her. "You're interesting," he said. "Be my woman, and the city is yours." Hayley raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. "You want to own me? Survive me first." High society became their battlefield. Power collided with desire. Ambition clashed with obsession. In this ruthless game of dominance and temptation, only one would kneel first. The girl once abandoned in hell rose from its ashes, crowned by fire and vengeance—And in the end, even the most feared ruler in the city would bow, offering his empire to the woman who had conquered both hell… and him.

SHANA GRAY

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.
