Self-esteem Stories

From childhood, Lil's life has been a nightmare. Her mother tried drowning her in the bath as a baby. As a result, she deals with depression and anxiety. When her boyfriend breaks up with her, she decides to get behind the wheel and is tempted to text him one last thing. Imagine her horror when she smashes into another car, the driver someone very close to her. Will she end up like her mom in prison? Will she let despair and guilt drag her back into darkness or will she find hope for a future, as hard as it may be? This is a book I wrote a few years ago before I found Wattpad. I never got a lot of feedback on it, so I appreciate you even taking a look and giving a few comments. You guys are rockstars. Thanks for reading!

He's the guy with too many scars, a devilishly handsome smile that promises trouble, and a reputation that scares off anyone with common sense. He doesn't care what people think. Rules were meant to be broken, and hearts were made to be played with. Adrien West is his complete opposite. Golden boy, star athlete, the perfect son, the guy everyone wants to be or be with. Until he walks in on his girlfriend cheating on him. To save face, he does something insane: he asks the school's most notorious bad boy to be his fake boyfriend for a month. What starts as a game of revenge turns into something else. Because the only problem with playing pretend... is when you start wishing it was real.

Under the glow of a full moon, Lyra Valen stands before the ancient Hollow Tree, her hand over her heart as golden light awakens around her. Beside her, Eldrin, the Spirit Guardian, emerges from the tree's magic, while far in the distance, Caelum lingers in the shadows near a forgotten castle.

Sin's body tells her story, her mind is wrecked, and she's barely afloat. Still, she is drowning. Graham is a living life-jacket, but for the first time in his existence, he might not have what it takes to bring Sin to shore. No extended summary inside, just read it. This is a dark psychological romance. My characters obey no other morals than their own.

Natalia Blackwood has spent her life running-from her power, from a prophecy, from a bond that terrifies her. But the land has other plans. When ancient runes ignite at her touch and storms answer her presence, hiding is no longer an option. Her grandmother arrives with a buried truth: Natalia's magic is tied to a prophecy that shattered covens, corrupted packs, and led to her parents' deaths-a prophecy now twisted to justify her execution. Forced to return to her former pack, Natalia discovers a bond with the land itself. As Ironwood fractures and old enemies hunt her, she uncovers her true father's dark experiments-and her own terrifying power to command all beings, wolf, witch, and hybrid alike. She could destroy her enemies. Instead, she chooses mercy. But mercy has a cost. When the coven comes for her with lethal force, Natalia must embrace every part of herself-wolf, witch, and something far older-to survive. The prophecy was never meant to predict her future, but to warn against power without heart. With her mate at her side, Natalia stands between worlds and rewrites their laws. Bloodlines no longer decide worth. Power no longer grants dominion. Natalia Blackwood was never meant to be a destroyer. She was meant to be the line no one could cross.

This my first story (which I am going to publication). I hope u all like it. Description: I've lived a life where silence hurts more than screams.A life where trust is a stranger, and kindness feels unreal. Kiya's world has never been easy. Between a home that didn't feel safe and a past that never lets go, she's learned to survive-but surviving isn't living. From the quiet chaos of her hostel to the fleeting strangers on a train, Kiya struggles to understand who she is beyond the fear, the pain, and the memories. This is a story about loneliness, self-discovery, and finding strength in the smallest choices. There's no instant savior, no fairy-tale escape-only one girl learning to know herself. "I am not healed. I am not broken. I am a girl standing between what hurt her and what doesn't anymore."

Finally Sophie is a story of secrets, self-discovery, and the courage to reclaim your heart-because some journeys don't need anyone else to make them complete.

Pd2: English is not my first language so forgive me if I make a grammar or spelling mistake. *I only own my Fem Oc and the changes I made to the story, everything else is own by Uncle Rick Riordan*

Where magic intersects with life, Ren is an unwilling planter whose magnificent garden is full of his failures. When his attempt at confessing to his crush leads to the sight of an unexpected guest hidden in the flowers he was going to give, Ren is tugged along on a fantastical quest to an odd little village that only exists on rainy days to not just break the curse of the finger-sized prince who's deemed Ren his friend, but to also break free from Ren's own wretched connection to mistakes. Along the way, he may just come to realize the power of not just unbridled love, but also love for oneself and just how beautifully it can blossom into something worth saving. Amidst secrets, ticking time, tall tales with hints of truth, and a forest worth dying in, perhaps this time around, Ren won't add to his flowers of failures. Not if he can help it. Love can bloom, too, after all, right? ( Open Novella Contest 2026 )
