I Was His Safe Choice—Now I’m Gone

Some endings are silent, but the ache never is. I thought Eli and I were forever—until a single betrayal tore us apart, leaving me clutching memories and a cheap county fair kite. Years later, I’m called back to his side as his emergency contact, thrown into a whirlwind of old wounds and unfinished business. He’s surrounded by new admirers, but the past still claws at both of us. I want closure, maybe even forgiveness, but Eli only offers distance. My friends say I’m a fool for loving him, but they never saw the sacrifices he made, the debts unpaid. Now, as I watch him slip away for the last time, I’m haunted by one question: Was I the one holding him back—or was he always running from something he could never name? If love is letting go, why does it hurt so much to set him free?

A car ride was all it took to shatter twenty years of sacrifice. When I, a devoted single mother, dared to sit beside my son, his girlfriend unleashed accusations that turned my world upside down—and my own child sided with her. I’d saved, planned, and dreamed for his future, only to be cast out and humiliated. As family lines blur and loyalty is tested, I’m forced to make a choice: cling to the son who betrayed me, or finally put myself first. Will my heartbreak become my freedom, or will the past pull me back in? When love turns to war, who gets the front seat in your life?

Death was supposed to be the end—until I woke up in my own skin, staring down the man I’d once sworn to protect. I’m Mason: the mob boss’s right hand, the muscle who died for his loyalty, and now, somehow, I’ve got a second chance. But the city’s colder, my enemies sharper, and Jamie—the snake who betrayed us all—is closer to my boss than ever. Every step I take risks exposing the truth: I remember the betrayal, the blood, the night the boss shoved me onto a lifeboat to save my life. Now, I’ll do anything to keep him safe—even if it means seducing our deadliest rival, Marcus, or confessing feelings I never meant to share. But in a world where trust is a weapon and love is a liability, who will break first: the boss, the traitor, or me? If loyalty is fatal, can I survive loving him twice?

He was supposed to be my forever—until he walked in with someone new on my birthday. Blinded by the accident that saved his life, I thought Mason would always be my anchor. But tonight, he shattered our unbreakable promise in front of everyone, leaving me exposed, humiliated, and forced to let go of the only love I’ve ever known. Just as my world collapses, Carter Hayes—the boy next door turned protector—returns, holding out hope, secrets, and maybe something more. When a chance at sight—and a second chance at love—appears, will I risk my heart and trust again, or is some darkness too deep to escape? When loyalty becomes betrayal, who will help me see the truth?

Caleb promised me forever, but when success called, he took our son and his first love—leaving me with nothing but broken vows and a silent house. In my last life, I waited years for a family that never came back; this time, I’ll walk away before they can shut the door on me again. He chose ambition and another woman—now I choose myself, no matter how much it hurts.

He was my first heartbreak—and now, as the fiancée of a wealthy man with too many secrets, I’m about to meet the ghosts I thought I’d buried. I was always the 'good girl,' the safe choice, until a proposal ring and a scandalous pregnancy upended my carefully planned life. Carter offers security, but his world is full of women I’ll never measure up to—and tonight, he’s inviting me into his circle for the first time. But nothing prepares me for who’s waiting there: Tyler, the wild love I never got over. When midnight falls and old wounds resurface, will I cling to the future I chose, or risk everything for the boy who broke me? When your heart is split between comfort and chaos, which do you betray?

Natalie’s world shatters when her husband, Gavin, abandons her and their newborn to chase after his ex in a war zone. As everyone expects her to save him, Natalie must decide whether to rescue the man who broke her heart—or finally put herself and her daughter first. Torn between betrayal and freedom, she faces the ultimate test of love and self-worth.

He was always supposed to be the boy who protected me—but on the night I finally confessed, I learned just how fragile love can be. When Noah, my childhood fiancé, betrays me with the prom queen, my world shatters overnight. Forced to break our engagement and leave everything behind, I vow never to look back. But fate—and one stolen cat—pulls me into a final showdown I never wanted. Now, with heartbreak and hope warring inside me, I have to decide: can I ever trust him again, or is this goodbye forever? When the person you love most is the one who hurts you deepest, is a second chance ever worth the risk?

She came home on our anniversary with another man’s mark—and I didn’t even ask why. For three years, I played the perfect husband, a stand-in for the man she truly loved. Now, with only seven days left until my assignment ends and I can finally leave this world, every lie, every bitter silence, and every leftover gift is one step closer to my freedom. But when Rachel tries to pull me back with guilt and old routines, I realize I’m done being her lapdog. If she wants Lucas, why not go to him? The clock is ticking, the portal is opening, and our marriage is about to shatter. But will walking away finally set me free—or will the truth I’ve hidden destroy us both?

Death wasn’t the end—it was my second shot at freedom. After years of letting Dylan, my controlling boyfriend, sabotage my dreams and erase my ambition, I wake up back at the moment everything went wrong: my college application. With memories of betrayal burning in my chest, I vow to flip the script. But Dylan’s charm hides a toxic core, and every sweet word is a trap meant to keep me small. This time, I’ll use his own game against him—turning old scars into new strength, and every manipulation into a stepping stone out of his grasp. Can I break free from the chains of my past, or will Dylan’s lies pull me back under? When revenge is the only way forward, how far will I go to reclaim my future?

Betrayal doesn’t whisper—it screams in neon. For three years, I sacrificed everything to care for my comatose husband, only to start seeing a barrage of floating comments that expose every secret, every lie, and every humiliation I was never meant to know. Each step I take, the invisible audience mocks my devotion and cheers for the woman stealing my life. When an accident proves their predictions true, and my so-called best friend is unmasked as the ‘heroine’ in their twisted story, I realize I was never the main character in my own marriage. But what happens when the side character finally breaks the script? Is it too late for me to rewrite my ending—or will the world keep rooting for my downfall?

He loved her—just not me. On the night of our fourth anniversary, I watched Carter Langley slip further away, his heart claimed by another while our marriage became nothing but a headline. I was supposed to smile, play the perfect wife, and pretend not to notice the pitying looks or the silence that suffocated our home. But pain demands a witness. When betrayal cuts deeper than bone, how far will a woman go to make her absence felt? Carter’s indifference is legendary—until my final act leaves him with a haunting question and a secret he can never bury. If love is dead, what’s left for the living to regret?
