Maximo Gena Rodriguez needs a wife. Not for love. Not forever. Just long enough to keep his dying grandmother's last wish alive. Three hundred and sixty five days. A legal contract. A win- win situation too generous to refuse. Valea Lily Cabo says yes; not because she's desperate, but because she refuses to be cornered. With her parents demanding she return home with a suitable boyfriend or agree to an arranged marriage with her cousin; Valea chooses the only option that gives her control. She gets married instead. A blind date turning into a contract wasn't part of the plan, yet here she is - sharing a house, a last name, and a bed with a man who treats love like turbulence: something to fly through, never feel. The rules are simple: No feelings. No questions. No breaking the clause. But when his grandmother moves in, suspicion sharp in her eyes and hope heavy in her heart, the act starts to feel dangerously real. Lingering touches replace polite distance. Jealousy creeps in where indifference once lived. And the countdown begins to feel less like an end... and more like a threat. Because the hardest part of a fake marriage isn't pretending to love someone. It's walking away when the contract expires.

Zuko was trapped in his own mind. He was constantly plagued by the demons in his head. Every little thing set him off, eroded his sanity. He just wanted to escape from it all and run away from everything. He thought he was ready, but was he?

Dr. June Nakamura had been called many things in her career-prodigy, visionary, lunatic-but above all else, she was brilliant. The number of doctorates she possessed was creeping toward triple digits, each one a trophy of obsession. She was, by every measurable standard, the most intelligent woman alive. That was why she had been given the Project. The concept was elegant in its simplicity: a gas that could render entire battalions unconscious without a drop of blood spilled. An EMP for the human body. Not a weapon of death, but of pause. In theory, the device could end war-or at least press the world's endless conflicts into silence long enough for peace to take root. June believed in it. Believed in herself. And for the first time in her life, she was wrong. The test chamber was packed with dignitaries, generals, scientists, and investors-hundreds of witnesses hungry for proof. They watched as the first human subject was lowered into the sealed room, the faint green vapor hissing into existence. The subject did not grow drowsy. He did not collapse into gentle hibernation. Instead, his skin warped, his bones reshaped, fur erupting in violent cascades. His eyes went wild, not with terror, but with a terrifying emptiness. When it was over, there was no man in the chamber. Only a humanoid beast, animal-featured and utterly confused. His gaze wandered the walls as if he had never seen them before. When asked his name through the intercom, he only tilted his head, ears twitching. He had forgotten. He had forgotten everything. Not a sedative, then. Not a miracle. A metamorphosis. June's heart turned to ice as murmurs spread through the auditorium. Some recoiled in horror. Others, strangely, leaned forward with fascination. What they saw was not the death of a project, but the birth of something unforeseen. June had not ended war. She had ended humanity. And before anyone could stop it, the new world had begun.

"No." She insists, cutting him off instantly. "We are not setting the entire camp back several hours just so some dramatic prince can get his journal back." She- Maeve, he assumes -bites, and Rae flinches at the angry emotions. "He can live without it. We need to get moving before-" "Astrid needs a journal," The man offers. And for some reason, this makes the woman freeze. Rae pulls his wings close against his back in his attempt to hide the grimace at the bitter flavor; frantically pushing her emotions into a raindrop to make it join the rest of the downpour. If either avian notices his discomfort; neither of them mention it, and the man continues speaking. "And she's practically a master at botany. If he needs a journal, we should get it." The woman takes a deep, angry breath as Rae tries not to panic. He hates being in the same place as someone when they're this angry. Doesn't want to be seen or looked at when anyone is angry. He can't handle it- --- Or; A story about grief, broken families, and how communication can fail when someone doesn't want to change.
