Jessie has loved Warren since she was sixteen. Eight years. One flat. Too many apologies. And a version of herself that got smaller every year. She finally leaves. New city. New job. New people who don't know who she used to be. Then Warren's mum gets diagnosed with terminal cancer. Now he's calling at midnight. Saying he misses her. Saying he's changed. Saying he still loves her. And Jessie? She's not heartless. She's just not sure she loves him the same way anymore. Because there's also Max. A grounded pilot with secrets, grief he doesn't talk about, and a way of looking at her like she isn't something to manage. He doesn't need fixing. He doesn't need saving. He just sees her. But healing isn't linear. Grief blurs lines. History has weight. And sometimes you kiss someone you thought you'd outgrown. This is the year Jessie stops shrinking. The year she chooses herself. The year she realises love should feel steady... not like survival. The year that changed her.

He was a veteran, she was a foreigner. He loved her, she could read his mind. He wore gloves to protect others from his sins. She wore kimonos to reclaim her identity. Colonel Gerald Aldrick survived the war, but he didn't come back the same man. Now, a teacher at the academy where he was once alive and full of dreams, he moved through each day like a ghost of the past. Until Robin Taylor stormed into his office. Fierce, beautiful, and convinced he was an abusive teacher, the caretaker tore into him with a passion that made his long-dead heart race for the first time in years. She called him useless. A doormat. A terrible liar. She threatened his job and walked away without a second glance. Gerald should have been offended. Instead, he was captivated. But this was not a story of fate. Robin saw nothing but a sad excuse of a man. A violent soldier pathetically entranced by her looks. Like everyone else. Robin knew exactly what this man wanted, no stranger to that 'line of work'. She had every intention of using his legendary colonel status for the ambitions and prominence of Trizstan's Spiriter Home. But was that all she truly wanted?

This is a Pokémon fan fiction. As the story unfolds, concepts from other franchises may appear; all referenced IPs belong to their respective owners. Eh'L had everything-money, freedom, a skyline penthouse, a dream job at the Pokémon Company. By all accounts, he should've been happy. He wasn't. Corporate politics ended his life mid-smoke break... and rebooted it. Eh'L wakes up in Ecruteak City as an eight-year-old with no autonomy, no answers, and no patience-an isekai disaster waiting to happen. A traumatized Black man dropped into one of the world's most beloved franchises, he begins dragging it, kicking and screaming, toward Big-3-level power scaling. This is not a typical Pokémon story. Written for adults, it explores the darker spaces behind nostalgia-trauma, addiction, sex, violence, and existential dread. Buckle up. This universe has no idea what's coming. Content Advisory: Mature themes, including sexual content and LGBTQ+ polygamous relationships, appear later in the story.

In the ruthless underworld of Palm Beach Island's elite, where glass towers gleam and power is currency, 22-year-old Angel is marked-not by choice, but by design. A brilliant but unprotected outsider, she finds herself ensnared in a labyrinth of betrayal, ambition, and a plot that was never meant to spare her. At its center stands Dante-a man 24 years her senior, forged in silence and secrets, bound by oaths that have cost him everything but control. Until her. Angel's presence shatters his carefully constructed world, igniting a slow-burning obsession he cannot name-let alone resist. She is everything he was never allowed to want: young, untouchable, and achingly alive. But protecting her means crossing a line he swore he never would. As lust blooms into something far more volatile, and the truth claws its way from beneath years of concealment, Dante must choose between the duty that cages him-and the woman who threatens to undo him entirely. The Ledger Of His Sins is a taut, intoxicating descent into forbidden desire and moral collapse-where every whispered promise and clandestine touch pushes them closer to ruin. In a city built on illusion, love becomes the most dangerous weapon of all. Disclaimer: The written content and original art associated therein; is legally protected.

But when the ultimate betrayal reveals someone who once was closest to her true motives, Ellie's fate is no longer hers to mourn-it's hers to rewrite. If your soul was the price for power, would you still fight to be free? Dive into a supernatural thrill ride where mythology meets mortality-and every choice echoes in eternity.

In Three Times a Victim: Living Under the Shadow of Toxic Shame, the author shares a deeply personal and harrowing journey through layers of injustice-first as a victim of a traumatic assault, then as the accused in a cruel reversal of truth, and finally as a casualty of a justice system riddled with gender bias and systemic failure. With raw honesty and emotional depth, this memoir delves into the profound psychological impact of being disbelieved, shamed, and ultimately betrayed by those entrusted to uphold justice. It explores how pre-existing wounds of childhood abuse, emotional deprivation, and toxic shame collided with the crushing weight of false accusations-leaving scars that persist in personal and professional life. Through vivid storytelling, the author examines the societal biases that too often dismiss male victims, the emotional toll of battling for truth in a world unwilling to listen, and the ongoing struggle to reclaim dignity and identity in the face of relentless self-doubt and despair. Despite the darkness, Three Times a Victim is also a testament to resilience, offering an unflinching look at survival, self-acceptance, and the pursuit of healing. This memoir is a must-read for anyone who has ever faced injustice, battled with feelings of shame and isolation, or sought to understand the devastating consequences of a system that too often punishes the innocent. It is a powerful call to challenge societal perceptions, advocate for fairness, and shine a light on the silent struggles that persist long after the case is closed.
