End
Part one: The end Dina had been begging for help this whole time but no one cared enough to do anything. She was in an extremely abusive relationship for too long. He beat her black and blue, tore up her belongings, broke gifts she received, broke her heart by trying to be with other women. All of that and so much more. She was fiery and sweet but always spoke up for herself.

The Wolf and the Human Child
The forest was a place of silence and mystery, where tall trees whispered ancient secrets through the wind. Few humans dared to enter its depths, and those who did rarely understood its true nature. One cold evening, as darkness slowly covered the sky, a she-wolf named Kaara moved quietly through the forest. Hunger pressed heavily on her, as winter had made food scarce. Just as she was about to return to her den, a strange and unfamiliar sound reached her ears—a soft, weak cry.

We already saw each other almost every day, living together would be amazing… or so I thought.

Shared Scars
By the time my sister asked him to walk her down the aisle, the scar on my cheek had faded into the color of old paper. It began near my temple and pulled slightly whenever I smiled too hard, a pale line disappearing into my hairline. Children used to stare at it in supermarkets. Adults pretended not to. Men I dated kissed around it before they kissed me, as if pain should be approached gently.

The Dog Who Waited Outside the Hospital
Every city has its noise—cars rushing, people hurrying, life moving forward without pause. But outside one old hospital, there was a silence that spoke louder than all of it. Near the iron gate, beside a worn-out bench, sat a thin brown dog with tired eyes and a heart full of waiting.
