Before Stories

Too Proud to Break: The Badgered Woman is a deeply personal, emotionally charged coming-of-age narrative that traces the collapse of innocence and the creation of identity through pain, survival, and self-protection. At its core, the story follows a young woman who learns early that love does not always arrive gently-or honestly. What begins as a desire for connection slowly transforms into a pattern of emotional survival, where affection is mistaken for validation and inconsistency is mistaken for care. Each relationship, each betrayal, and each moment of being overlooked becomes another layer shaping who she is forced to become. The protagonist's life is divided between two versions of herself: Asha'leigh, the girl who still believes in love, and Sari'yah, the woman who learns not to. As the story unfolds, the shift between these identities becomes less symbolic and more survival-based-Asha'leigh represents vulnerability, trust, and emotional openness, while Sari'yah represents control, detachment, and protection at all costs. Raised in an environment defined by emotional neglect and instability, the protagonist grows up in Deadhorse-a place that does not teach love, only endurance. In this setting, attention is easily mistaken for affection, and being wanted is confused with being valued. These early experiences shape the foundation of her emotional world, teaching her to stay longer than she should, give more than she receives, and ignore her instincts in favor of hope. As she matures, these patterns deepen. She begins to internalize silence as strength and emotional withdrawal as safety. What looks from the outside like confidence is, internally, a carefully constructed system of self-protection-built from disappointment, inconsistency, and unresolved emotional wounds. The arrival of Cori'dale becomes the turning point. Unlike others, he does not retreat when she withdraws or accept her distance as an ending.

Prince Benton James Sholler III is the crowned prince of his nation. His father, King Benton is leading a war that has been going on for a year now and no one knows the real reason why.

Well the reason is Prince Benton is the most popular son out of the three so he's in most danger. The fact that he can get quick access to any girl he wants is also quite dangerous. Player-jerk type? Indeed. But what happens when he meets this mystery girl that refuses to give out her real name and any other information about herself? When the setting changes, the people do as well

Aanya was once a bright, cheerful girl-full of laughter, dreams, and endless words. But something changed. Now, she lives in silence. In a world where everyone seems to move forward, Aanya feels stuck, carrying emotions she cannot explain and fears she cannot escape. The noise around her feels too loud, yet her own voice feels impossible to find. Everything begins to shift when a new girl, Riya, quietly steps into her life. With patience, kindness, and understanding, Riya doesn't try to fix Aanya-she simply stays. Through small moments, hidden fears, and pages of a secret diary, Aanya slowly begins a journey she never thought she could take-learning to trust, to feel, and maybe... to speak again. The Silent Voice is a deeply emotional story about pain, healing, and the courage it takes to be heard-even when the world feels too heavy.

Maybe things are simpler than finding the secret to life. Maybe we're here to exist and not find a bigger purpose. It's just a thought...
