Velvet Guard
Velvet Guard
A Story by Les | WordsByLes Series
She didn’t need to be conquered.
She needed somewhere safe enough to fall apart —
and someone strong enough to catch her when she did.
Velvet Guard is an emotionally charged, slow-burn short story about recognition, surrender, and the kind of hunger that isn’t rushed — it’s earned.
If you’ve ever craved a love that melted you open by degrees…
that held you fiercely, quietly, without asking for anything but everything —
this story was written for you.
Read it slowly.
Feel it deeply.
Let it stay.
She didn’t need to be conquered. She needed a place to fall apart — and someone strong enough to catch her. A slow-burn, emotionally charged short story about surrender, trust, and the gravity between two souls who stop pretending they don't need each other. Written to be felt.
