This short story was written solely for the purpose of the Forbidden Love Anthology contest on Wattpad.

Prompt - It's in the middle of the night and you just missed the last bus back home. You head to the cafe across the street to evade the rain. Inside, the waiter/waitress surprises you with a special drink, a bit of kindness and the realisation that this person was the 'one who got away'.

Our Echoes in the Shadows by Asuka7146
7 parts Complete Mature
Love doesn't always follow the rules. Sometimes, it finds you in the most unexpected places-on a rooftop, in the rain, or in the quiet moments between heartbeats. This is the story of a love that defied time, age, and society. A love that was as forbidden as it was beautiful. He was 15 when they first met; she was 32, a woman of grace and mystery. Over the years, their connection deepened, a bond that neither could deny. But their love was a secret, hidden in stolen moments and whispered promises. As they navigated the complexities of their lives, they discovered that some flames burn too brightly to be extinguished-even if they must burn in the shadows. This is a tale of passion, longing, and the bittersweet beauty of a love that could never be. It's about the choices we make, the hearts we break, and the memories that stay with us forever. Welcome to a story where love is both the question and the answer."

"You stay away from that woman, you understand? You do not wanna get involved with a person like that." Willow left the city drama and traveled to the countryside to try and unwind a little. However, things don't quite go according to plan, and she ends up tangled up with a mysterious woman who's been ostracized from her own community. As fate brings the two women together, Willow is forced to make a decision. Should she honour the rigid expectations of society to keep her and her family's reputation safe, or should she follow her heart and defy the community in the name of love? "Nobody seems like a good person if you know every single thing there is to know about them. But most people are good people on the surface and most often don't have wrong intentions for being so. I'd say that still makes them good people," 📚Featured on Wattpad Ambassadors' Short Stories reading list! 📜

Barry's life by irisekkeri
59 parts Ongoing Mature
Two people fall in love in unlikely circumstances. They have a lot of psychological issues and mistrusts in the order of things to prevent them from finding themselves and each other. I am a reader of crime novels and hard science fiction almost exclusively, and yet this story, which I have been writing for a long time, is a love story, I can't explain it even to myself. The characters will have to work through hardship and evolve to be able to surrender to the magical things around them and the flow of the universe and the love of other people. This story still is a work in progress, it has holes and it is to be continued
