Welcome to Mr. Karma. ✨ This story follows Karuma, a mysterious Karma deity from the Underworld who escapes into the human world and takes on a human form. While wandering through a life he was never meant to experience, he unexpectedly meets Yui-a girl who unknowingly becomes the center of his new existence. Karuma possesses powerful magic, but he keeps it hidden from Yui. Instead, he secretly watches over her from the shadows. Whenever someone hurts, betrays, or mistreats Yui, Karuma makes sure their actions return to them as bad karma. And when someone treats her with genuine kindness, he gives them good karma in return. But as the months pass, something happens that even a deity cannot control. Karuma falls in love with Yui. Yet Yui doesn't seem to feel the same way. Or perhaps... she's hiding something of her own. As secrets from the Underworld begin to surface and Karuma's true identity becomes harder to conceal, he must face a question he has never had to ask before: Can a deity who controls everyone else's fate choose his own? And if Yui truly doesn't love him... why does her heart seem to react whenever he walks away? Because sometimes, the one who gives everyone their karma is the one who cannot escape his own.

🏆 ONC 2026 Honorable Mention 🏆 ''Nothing is what it seems in dreams.'' In the depths of a dark and twisted forest, Aris, crown prince of Lancaster, is tormented by recurring nightmares of the Tainted--monstrous creations of the black fae, a corrupting force that seeps into all who live within its woods. Relentlessly hunted in the dreams, he finds unexpected aid from a mysterious girl named Elara, and with her help he is able to elude the creatures each time, breaking free from the nightmare's clutches. But when Aris is wounded by one of the Tainted, the line between dream and reality begins to blur. When a weapon deadly to the black fae appears in his grasp from the dream, Aris and his sisters--Tamryn, Maeve, Maeril, and Aine--must race against time and his failing health to uncover the ancient truth behind the forest's curse, or face the imminent threat of the black fae and its vengeful master, the guardian of the dark forest, Erebus Nocturne. ✧☽ ✧ ☼ ✧ ☽ ✧ Cover design by Aravis Brightspell ✧☽ ✧ ☼ ✧ ☽ ✧ If you are reading this story on any platform other than Wattpad, you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack and reading a plagiarized copy of my work.

The future they once dreamed about is finally here. Ren, Daishi, Aiko, and Mika are stepping into college, leaving behind the familiar halls of high school and the memories that brought them closer together. But growing up means facing a world they can no longer run from. College brings new dreams, new responsibilities, new friendships and struggles none of them expected. Ren and Aiko must learn that loving someone doesn't mean their paths will always be the same and trust is crucial. Daishi and Mika will discover that even the strongest relationships can be tested by distance, uncertainty, and the dreams they each carry. As they chase the futures they've always wanted, they begin to wonder: Can they fully trust without doubting themselves? Can they grow without growing apart? Can they pursue their dreams without losing the people who make those dreams worth chasing? And when tomorrow finally arrives, will they still be standing beside the person they promised to love? Four friends. Four dreams. Two young loves. And a future waiting to be discovered. Because sometimes, chasing tomorrow means learning how to hold on to the people you love while finding your own way forward.

A collection of my personal letters to all the people I love, hated, missed and will not forget.

Will there still be tomorrow? Sixteen-year-old Aiko Mizuhara has slowly forgotten what it feels like to be happy. Leaving her trapped between loneliness, anxiety, and a fear of what tomorrow might bring. Then she meets Ren Takahashi, a cheerful and kindhearted boy who believes that even the darkest days are worth facing because tomorrow can always become something better. As their friendship grows, Ren begins to see the pain Aiko hides behind her quiet expression, while Aiko slowly discovers that she doesn't have to face everything alone. Alongside her best friend Mika and Ren's best friend Daishi, their ordinary days become filled with laughter, friendship, tears, and moments they never expected. But both Aiko and Ren carry wounds from the past- fears of being abandoned again. Through every difficult day, they learn an important lesson: tomorrow doesn't have to be something we fear. Sometimes, all we need is someone beside us to give us the courage to look forward to it. And perhaps, when two people find each other at the right moment, even an uncertain tomorrow can become something beautiful. But the question still remains: Will there still be tomorrow?

Anna finds a letter in a drawer, It takes a ghost's voice she can't ignore. Maybe she knows whose words it holds, To face what's inside she's not that bold. Each fragment she reads spirals in her head, Reminds of someone she loved and lost instead, Fills her chest with guilt, grief and dread. Will this letter ever be read? ~ T.A

The Dreamer awakes, the shadow goes by; the tale I have told you, that tale is a lie... Portals to magical worlds, corvids that speak the meaning of life, and more await one who sits and listens to this sharing of tales between two anachronistic raconteurs, one of whom may or may not be Geoffrey Chaucer. Reader, remember this: the tales are pure fictions. Fantasies. Except when they are not.

[Time Duology #2] Cebu, 2026. "Slay forever na tayo rito sa kasalukuyan, okay? Charot!" After four centuries of waiting, 17th-century maestro Don Noah San Lorenzo has finally crossed time to be with Alia Paloma in 2026. But modern Cebu is nothing like the world he left behind. Between smartphones, air conditioning, Jollibee Chickenjoy, and cars that move without horses, Noah has a lot to learn. Their peaceful life takes a dangerous turn when a video of the mysterious "Cebuano Samurai" goes viral. With the NBI searching for a man who has no identity, no records, and no place in modern history, Alia and Noah must find a way to protect the love they fought four centuries to keep. Because surviving the past was one thing. Hiding from the future may be another.
