    Lucien's voice dropped to an intimate whisper beside his ear."Now tell me..what is the problem, Ezekiel? We're both men are we not? My state of undress shouldn't matter unless.."he moved to Zeke's other ear,"of course, it stirs something in you that feels..utterly inappropriate" ***** "I'm scared of the guilt you must carry,"Wren whispered."Knowing that inside you is a..a power so fierce. Knowing that at any moment, you could lose control and hurt the people around you. Or worse..yourself."Her thumb brushed gently over his knuckles."I can't possibly imagine what that weight feels like."Her gaze was unwavering, fierce in its compassion."Let me help you Zeke. Let me." 🖤✨ Dear reader, Zeke Aldren's magic has a body count. Sent off to Blackthorn Academy to control his magic that almost wiped out his entire village, he plans to be invisible.All he wants is control, and maybe, to feel human again. He finds that humanity in Wren, a banshee whose quiet love feels like a sanctuary. She is his ideal first love-the exact replica of what he'd always been taught to want. With her, he can almost believe in the simple, safe story he was given. But everything changes when he meets Lucien. Centuries old, utterly shameless, and whose beauty is as haunting and magnetically terrifying as his reputation, the vampire ignites a different kind of fire within Zeke-one that has nothing to do with magic and everything to do with a desire he never knew he could feel, one that could devour them both. Drawn to Lucien's dangerous allure, Zeke is forced to question everything: his power, his purpose, and the very foundation of who he is allowed to love. Wren felt safe, an anchor for his humanity but Lucien was a challenge against everything Zeke thought he knew about love and himself. In my book, love isn't just a choice..it's a weapon. *Love or loyalty? Light or dark? The wrong choice could doom them all..but the right one might destroy Zeke's heart.* Enjoy : )

    Margaret Salvatore has always seen the world differently. At Ravenwood Academy-an elite boarding school where science is revered like faith-her unsettling visions of danger before it strikes are no longer just intuition. They may be the only weapon she has when the Academy's greatest minds begin to fall. One by one, they are eliminated-not randomly, but with chilling precision, each death reflecting the discipline they once mastered. Physics. Chemistry. Biology. Mathematics. The message is clear: even knowledge cannot save you. Brilliance makes you a target. Caught between two rivals-the calculating, methodical Brian, and the dazzling, magnetic Sebastian-Margaret must navigate not only the volatile currents of love and loyalty but also the razor's edge of survival. The killer leaves behind cryptic, scientific puzzles that demand intellect to solve, daring anyone clever enough to challenge them. As exams approach and the shadow of fear deepens, Margaret must decide how to wield her visions, whom to trust, and how far she's willing to go to outthink a murderer who has outsmarted the masters themselves . At Ravenwood, knowledge is power. It might also be the reason you die.

    --- Story Title: The Third-Floor Girls' Bathroom Has a Secret Club Genre: School mystery, psychological thriller, teen drama, slow-burn suspense Tone: Sharp, stylish, chilling with a subtle descent into darkness Description: At Everwin High, there's one place students avoid after hours - the third-floor girls' bathroom. The rumors say it's haunted. The truth is far more dangerous. Behind a mirror, hidden inside a forgotten maintenance panel, exists a room no one's supposed to know about. Inside it, four girls - Yuna, Ivy, Arin, and Haerin - run an underground surveillance network. They watch, record, and manipulate their school from the shadows, exposing secrets one by one... but only of the guilty. Or so they claim. Then comes Yeji - the transfer student with sharp eyes, a colder heart, and a past no one's ready for. As she gets drawn deeper into their web, she realizes she's not just being watched - she's being tested. In a school built on power, silence, and buried history, how long can secrets stay hidden? And who will survive when the truth finally claws its way out? ---

    (Specter is the one in the book cover. Isn't he so silly?) Welcome to the Accademia! ✨📚🌀 Aven scored a perfect 100 on the impossible National Exam. ...Problem is, she kinda cheated. Like. A lot. But now everyone thinks she's a once-in-a-century genius, so naturally she gets accepted into the Accademia del Pensiero Dominante - an ancient, mildly unhinged school for the "gifted" where the halls shift, students duel over coffee machines, and there's a suspiciously large amount of fog at night. Totally normal. Aven just wanted to fake her way through math class, but now she's dodging exploding staircases, nearly getting voted class president, and hearing whispers about something... horrible... underneath the school. They say no one who's seen him ever laughs again. They also say that's dramatic, but like... they're not wrong. ✨ Magic, mayhem, and one very accidental genius. ✨ Welcome to the Accademia. You're gonna need a nap.

    They were never meant to talk. Jules Blake has it all - the golden boy, star athlete, perfect student. But perfection is heavy when your mother's expectations are stacked on your shoulders, and your father's mistakes haunt every step. He's built his life around control. Around being who everyone needs him to be. And then there's who he wishes he was. Leo Rosa-Castillos doesn't listen to those who assume greatness. Skater. Stoner. Loser. The only thing heavier than the bruises of his past is the weight of protecting the little sister who depends on him. And if surviving means keeping everyone at arm's length - so be it. When a school project shoves them together, worlds collide. What starts as guarded conversations turns into stolen glances, quiet confessions, and a night neither of them can grasp - even if Jules desperately wants to. Because crossing that line means risking everything: reputations, safety, even their own sense of who they are. But the heart doesn't care about what's safe. In a world that won't accept them, can two boys learn to accept themselves? Or will everything come crashing down? This isn't a romance book, its a book about those who don't fit.

    There is a realm that exists in which amity and harmony is only found if both light and darkness sustain a balance. Light cannot exist without darkness. And there is no darkness without the presence of light. It remained that way for a long time, each depending on the other. Until one day... The knot of affinity was untied, the scale of symmetry disrupted and the Darks conspired an audacious move, in all of history, they dared to be the first who violated the law, or as is assumed. Yet it was the fluttering, dim light of... faithfulness and hope. For in the midst of all loss and misery, are lives that, though young, certainly have the treasure of strength buried within. Here is where the five Lightling siblings enter the stage, each with roles in a play they can't abandon, entrusted to preform in a high-stake action performance with the ending indefinite. Their life never quieted down from then, for there were plenty of secrets hidden and plenty of secrets to be found. The stage isn't full yet, for it has promised the Troys their part as well. The Troys follow a similar story, except while being in triumph for having escaped their imprisoning orphanage, that euphoria was short-lived as the three siblings get shoved into the sewer of their wickedest nightmares. None has asked to be apart of this theatrics where life and death is on the line, how long can they keep dodging death as it hurtles its way at them through life-threatening situations? With each decision made, a battle is drawn closer, a campaign that, with the outcome unknown, is the thin line between victory, freedom and the ruin of their realm. The battle where opposing forces that rely on each other, clash, in fight for justice, in fight for freedom. Can the balance be returned once again?
