Cityofsecrets Stories

Caleb arrives in Zavella City to claim his poetry prize but instead finds a town haunted by a mysterious creature. With the help of new friends, he sets out to uncover the truth lurking in the shadows.

They promised nothing could tear them apart - until the day she called him a monster and walked away. For months, Elara believed the rumors. For months, Kael let her hate him just to keep her safe. But when secrets start to unravel and danger closes in, she learns the truth: the man everyone fears is the only one who has always protected her. Now, she must choose - run away from the shadows, or stand by his side and fight. Under the Same Stars - where broken vows become the strongest love of all.

Alex was not a man people whispered about-he was the whisper itself, the shadow that bled fear into every corner. To his enemies, he was the devil in flesh; to his family, a curse. Love meant nothing to him. Mercy was a word he had never learned. His hands had written stories in blood, and the world knew better than to cross his path. he fell in love with a girl whom he rejected years ago he doesn't remember. He rejected her because he thought love would soften him, and he couldn't afford weakness in his cruel world. > "I don't need love. Love makes you weak... and I can't be weak." Kiara. She used to be sunshine - sweet, bubbly, always laughing, always dreaming. The girl who loved food, played badminton with her whole heart, and would sacrifice anything for her family. But that girl died the day she was humiliated. On a dare, she confessed her feelings to her brother's best friend. To him. And Alex-the boy she had once admired-shattered her with seven words: "You're not my type. Don't bother." Those words broke her... but they also rebuilt her. Now she's colder. Stronger. Badass enough to stare the devil in the eye without flinching. Two years later, Alex is back. But he's not the same either. The devil who once felt nothing now finds himself burning-for the very girl he rejected. He wants her. Needs her. But the worst part? He doesn't even recognize that she's the same girl from his past... until it's too late. Kiara ignores him like he never existed. And Alex-the one who never begged, never cared-now faces the one battle he can't win with violence: Her heart. Will she forgive him? Will she accept him? Or will the devil learn what it feels like to be destroyed by the very fire he created? ---

Adalene's eighteenth birthday is approaching, and there is only one thing that would make her happy: to go to Paris to visit her dead cousin. Wait, what? Desarae was Ada's best friend. They were practically sisters. One day, Des just disappeared. Turns out she died in a car accident. At least that's what her parents say happened. She believes that there is more to the story. That she may be living and breathing. In Paris. What Adalene thought was going to be a thoughtful reunion turns out to be a rollercoaster of emotions. She discovers old family secrets and begins to wonder if anything they have ever told her was true. Something strange is going on, and it is up to Adalene to find out. And fast.

Something has crossed over. It doesn't arrive loudly. It doesn't announce itself. It walks barefoot through the city, leaving behind ripples that don't fade-only spread. Kush-tiel feels it before he understands it. A presence humming beneath floorboards. A whisper that follows him out of sleep. A question with no owner: Who? Across the city, a child appears where she shouldn't exist. Too calm. Too quiet. People change around her. Violence blooms without memory. Reflections lie. Billboards watch back. And somewhere between dreams and daylight, a name surfaces that should have been safe. Zephyr. As echoes spread through streets, homes, and minds, the boundary between influence and invasion begins to crack. What entered the world isn't lost-it's searching. And whatever it's looking for is closer than anyone realizes. Chapter 5 deepens the unease, drawing the threat inward-toward family, toward memory, toward the places that were never meant to be breached. Some doors don't open. They let things through.
