Seo Yuna, a junior architect who reads buildings better than people, agrees to one thing: pretend to be Kang Inha's girlfriend for a single family dinner. The terms are professional. The compensation is a project credit she has earned. The exit is clear. What she does not account for is Inha, who has been watching her for fourteen months and chose her precisely because she does not perform. As the fake relationship outlasts its occasion and Seoul sinks deeper into rainy season, the space between almost and actually becomes impossible to measure.

In the heart of 1950s Hollywood-a world defined by glamour, secrecy, and societal expectations-an unlikely bond forms between two women on opposite sides of the spotlight. Lana Chastain is the epitome of a movie star: stunning, enigmatic, and endlessly desired by millions. But behind the dazzling façade lies a woman trapped in a toxic marriage, haunted by loneliness, and searching for something real. Ruby Jamison, a young, aspiring screenwriter from South Dakota, arrives in Hollywood with wide eyes and big dreams. Hired as Lana's assistant, she finds herself drawn to the actress for reasons beyond admiration; there's a connection she can't ignore. As their friendship deepens, Ruby becomes Lana's confidante, a role that pulls her closer to a world she's only dreamed of-and to feelings she's never dared to explore. But in a time and place where their romance is forbidden, both women must navigate the thrill and terror of a hidden love. Through late-night script rehearsals, stolen glances on set, and whispered secrets in private trailers, they discover that some connections are too powerful to resist.

It's been a very trying year since Clarisse Ricci's world shattered dramatically. Her beloved father, Lorenzo, a larger-than-life billionaire that everyone admired for his kind, protective nature and savvy business management died suddenly. Everyone called it a tragic accident. Clarisse, however, isn't buying it. Now a senior in high school, with the looming thought of going to university and her future on the horizon, she cannot let go of the feeling that something darker happened. Her life soon takes a dangerous turn. Together with Joseph Samuels, her loyal (and occasionally stubborn) English boyfriend, and her creative thirteen-year-old sister, Camille, Clarisse dives into a mystery that threatens everything her parents built for them. The girls' mother, Isabelle, a world-renowned artist, tries to help, but even she is drowning in her own grief and distractions. Then the real danger steps out of the shadows: Harold Ward, Lorenzo's ruthless former COO, who's determined to claim the Ricci legacy for himself. Suddenly, Clarisse isn't just chasing answers but she is fighting to protect her family's future. If she fails, they could lose everything- their safety, their independence, and their chance at the lives they're just beginning to heal. Clarisse and Joseph thought turning eighteen meant gaining more freedom. Instead, it meant stepping up and risking it all. Will Clarisse and Joseph be able to succeed?

Istanbul, 1820 The scent of jasmine and spices lingered in the warm night air as the Bosphorus reflected the silver glow of the moon. Beyond the palaces and grand mansions, beneath the domes and minarets, the city hummed with life-merchants haggling in the markets, the calls to prayer echoing in the distance, the laughter of noblemen and diplomats filling opulent halls. In one such mansion, illuminated by the golden glow of hundreds of candles, music and conversation swirled through the air. Tonight was a night of politics and diplomacy, of whispered alliances and careful smiles. And yet, among all the powerful men gathered, among all the veiled women moving like delicate shadows through the halls- Two lives were about to collide. Two people who, by every rule of their worlds, should have never met. And yet, destiny had already begun weaving their fates together. Disclaimer This is a work of fiction.

They said the world ended quietly. It didn't. It shattered, loud, violent, and full of screaming skies and black-eyed monsters that tore through everything we thought was safe. Now, safety is a bunker deep underground. Love is a risk. Trust is earned in blood. And survival means becoming someone you swore you'd never be. I wasn't supposed to fall for him. He's my protector. My commander. My tether to something strong in a world unraveling. I'm younger, weaker, haunted by what l've lost and yet when he looks at me, it feels like I've already been chosen.

Somewhere deep in the universe, there is an alien earth, whose people made of sound the very essence of their life. After millennia of history, a conflict out of the ordinary is on the verge of exploding: the evil Elizabeth Estro, princess of Luthelmark, desires more than anything to extend her dictatorial dominion beyond her territory's borders. The isles of the north too, agitated by their divine guide, have come to their final showdown. However, these are only the manifestations of an ancient curse that has been threatening to annihilate the lands of Hertzia for more than five thousand years. When a desperate scream, its voice unknown, echoes from the mountains, the people interpret it as a call to arms. Two past rival forces unite to contrast the impending apocalypse, that could end with the irreparable fracturing of the very source of existence: the Hertz. The War of Spring is a personal interpretation of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, my favorite orchestral piece, envisioned as an epic fantasy where instruments become living beings, and music itself becomes breaths, words, steps, action. If you enjoy a story with a deep lore, this is for you! I illustrated the cover myself, along many other artworks that will be added to the chapters!
