Mated to the Alpha Knight
An hour later, after searching for anything to help us within books that ranged from brand new to hundreds of years old, I huffed with disappointment and decided to stretch my legs; my pale finger trailed over the spines of books, dust painting my fingertip.
Once I reached the poetry section, I smiled brightly. All around me were books from Silvia Plath, Edgar Allan Poe, Emily Dickson, Robert Frost, and many others that were like my old friends. Taking a random book off the shelf, I flipped through its contents.
"(...) Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home." ~ Tecumseh
"You enjoy poetry too?" A familiar voice spoke behind me, making my heart speed up as I jumped slightly. Turn

Love and Death
That she was just tricked by the Yamato's team.
Well, though the truth transpired it was too late now, Clench never regretted to be with her in death.
Well, it seems that it was already written on the book of life, where the love story they once built and was broken into pieces, reconnected again, between the tragic of Love and Death.

The Beloved
5 years ago, I was blessed to open a publishing house as well.
E.H. Publishing has had success with multiple top-selling books, and awards. I am grateful for my success, and the benefits packages that accompany it but, were I being honest with myself, I feel empty. It has been several decades since I felt a woman embrace. I have tried, I have tried to move on but, soon all becomes dust in the wind and I have yet to find someone who touches my soul just as my sweet Eliza did. I will never again be able to see her, feel her again.

The Mourning of Love
I saw Adrian, still crouched in a corner, watching us in misery.
He followed us all the way to a villa district but couldn't enter. From a distance, he stared at our windows, hoping to catch a glimpse of me forgiving him.
Late that night, Caleb turned off the lights. As our shadows slowly collapsed onto the bed together, I heard a deafening roar.
Caleb covered my ears and pressed his lips against mine in frustration. "Darling, focus. Don't listen to those barking dogs."
I giggled and sank into the tidal wave of his love.

ENEMIES TO LOVERS
Thank you for feeling angry on their behalf, smiling at their quiet moments, holding your breath during the hard ones, and celebrating every victory—big and small.
Thank you for believing in slow-burn tension and earned intimacy.
Thank you for embracing romance that’s sensual without being rushed, passionate without losing tenderness.
Thank you for seeing that heat isn’t just found in kisses or touches—but in connection, in longing, in the way two people learn to read each other without words.
This story grew because you stayed with it.
And if, somewhere along the way, you saw pieces of yourself reflected here, your fears, your hopes, your stubbornness, your capacity to love—then I hope this

Let the Lovers Have Each Other
Every page after that was filled with their so-called "love story."
"April 7th, sunny. Ruth and I argued again over work. I'm so tired. It's only when I'm with Reagan that I feel truly at peace. She's like the sun that is bright enough to drive away all my shadows."
"August 15th, rainy. Reagan said she liked that limited-edition bag. I secretly bought it for her. Seeing her surprise and joy made everything worth it. Ruth never smiles over little things like that. She's so dull."

OBSESSED WITH MY HUSBAND’s FRIEND
"Not because you should, not because they serve any practical purpose. Buy them because you want to."
Such a simple concept. Buying something because I want it.
At the register, Derek pays before I can protest. The elderly clerk smiles as she wraps the books in brown paper.
"Poetry lovers," she says warmly. "You don't see many couples who share that passion."
Couple. The word hangs in the air between us.
"We're not..." I start to correct her, but Derek's hand finds the small of my back.
"She's right," he says, his voice low and intimate. "It's rare to find someone who understands the power of words."

THE PROXY BRIDE: His bride. Her Secret.
The observation hung between them, raw and unspoken.
Clarisse plucked a slim volume from the shelf—Sappho’s fragments, its cover worn soft by time. "My favorite," she said, tracing the spine with that finger. "She wrote about love in broken pieces. Like us." She didn’t look at Amara, but her words landed like stones in still water. Like us.
Amara reached for a book on her own—Machiavelli’s The Prince, the Italian edition she’d read on the jet. Her fingers brushed the scar on her wrist as she opened it, the silver line catching the dim light.

The Dissipation of Love
After that, I would stroll through Roselle Street, but I always felt lonely, like I was missing something.
That was until I entered a bookshop and saw Jonathan reading in the corner.
He was surrounded by tall piles of books. He set every book he finished reading on one side before moving on to another. He seemed content in his world of ink and paper and looked like nothing could intrude on his peace.
I grew curious and asked the old man who ran the bookshop about him.
The old man clicked his tongue and replied, "That young man has come here three days in a row. He sits here from morning until nightfall, and he even skips meals sometimes."

Love and Shadows
Maybe it has to do with her occupation as a killer, so she knows every nook and cranny.
I think to myself, even as a speck in the distance, she's absolutely stunning, and she is pretty to the extent that she shames all the beautiful flowers that are simply existing to be pretty alone. I look away, deciding to stop because, well, I might actually get addicted to looking at her. I need to get a hold of myself because at the moment I have so much work to do, and simply thinking about the things I long for—the freedom and the girl I love—is not going to get me anywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
Few things capture the raw, messy beauty of love quite like poetry, and English literature has gifted us some absolute gems. If you're diving into this world, you can't miss Elizabeth Barrett Browning's 'Sonnets from the Portuguese'—those 44 sonnets are pure, unfiltered devotion, especially the famous 'How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.' It’s like she bottled the essence of timeless love and handed it to us. Another must-read is Pablo Neruda’s 'Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair' (yes, I know he’s Chilean, but the English translations are breathtaking). His words ache with passion and longing, and lines like 'I want to do with you what spring does with the cherry trees' stick with you long after you’ve closed the book.
For something more contemporary, Ocean Vuong’s 'Night Sky with Exit Wounds' blends love with vulnerability and cultural identity in a way that feels both intimate and universal. And let’s not forget Rumi—though he wrote in Persian, translations like those by Coleman Barks ('The Essential Rumi') have made his spiritual, all-encompassing love poetry accessible to English readers. What I love about these collections is how they span centuries and styles, yet all circle back to love’s power to lift, devastate, and transform us. Sometimes, I’ll flip open one of these books to a random page and just sit with the words for a while—it’s like a little soul recharge.
