So when she innocently applies for a gardening position and immediately gets hired, she's shocked to discover that her "real" job will be tending to a bunker full of thriving, (definitely) illegal weed plants. Intrigued by this world she knows nothing about, Tikera agrees to stay, but her growing feelings for "The Boss" -- the mysterious drug kingpin who owns and grows the plants -- quickly complicate things. He's falling for her too (and she knows it, even if he won't admit it), but breaking through his icy exterior won't be easy. And with thieves, vengeful hitmen, and rival kingpins threatening them at every turn, will they even survive long enough to find their happily ever after? [[word count: 100,000-150,000 words]]

𝐒𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝟏𝟗𝟐𝟎𝐬 was ruled by the Shelby family - or more so their gang. The Peaky Blinders were the infamous gang who earned their respect through the fear of the people. With the blades sewn into their flat caps and the weapons tucked into their jackets, people bowed their heads when passing them in the streets. You were considered lucky to have not had a run in with any of the three elder Shelby brothers. Arthur was the eldest. He was known for his fighting. You would often find him in the ring against somebody who was not his size. He went mad during the war and his return was nothing hit a relief for his mind. But when thinking he had finally escaped the war, one had started in his head. Arthur Shelby was his own enemy. Thomas was the second eldest - the most feared. He had a head for business and more common sense than his older brother. He had icy eyes which very rarely softened at the sight of anything. He was known for his trait of being unmerciful and careless. Despite being the second eldest, he was the brother who held the power. The brother who controlled the rest of them. John was the youngest of the three and arguably the softest. With his wonky smile and cheeky remarks, many of the girls in Small Heath found themselves falling at his feet. He would often find himself in trouble for acting childish. He didn't care too much for the business of the gang. He cared for the respect it brought their name. He enjoyed the thrill. And then you had John's twin sister - Francesca. Known for being one of the only Shelby siblings who seemed to laugh at Thomas. Her sister, Ada, being exactly the same. Francesca found that her brothers were ridiculous - too big for their boots as she'd say. Though she liked to use their name to get herself out of trouble. Francesca was often reckless and lacked the awareness one needed for the streets they lived in. She was her mother's daug

"I know you are a man who has lost a great deal, Mr. Shelby. And I know that fear is the only language you think Birmingham speaks. But I have spent ten years with the Sisters; your shadows don't frighten me nearly as much as the thought of a child going without a coat tomorrow." She is a woman of cloth and conviction. He is a man of lead and whiskey. Mabel is the lead teacher at the Grace Shelby Institute, a place built on the sins of the Shelby family. She isn't under any illusions about who pays her wages; she's seen the blood on the notes. But while the rest of Small Heath trembles at the click of iron-shod heels in the night, Mabel simply keeps her needle moving. When Thomas Shelby wanders into her classroom at two in the morning, he's looking for the silence his own mind refuses to give him. Instead, he finds a woman who refuses to be his victim or his devotee. To Tommy, she is a sanctuary he doesn't deserve. To Mabel, he is a soul that no amount of prayer can fix-but that doesn't mean she won't try. A story of faith, fire, and the mending of a man who thought he was beyond repair.

At eighteen, Cora Shelby is the untouchable darling of the Peaky Blinders. Kept strictly in the shadows of her brothers' violent empire, she is the family's carefully guarded secret. But when the Black Hand descends on the family, the Shelbys are forced to flee their mansions and return to the mud of Small Heath to survive. Tommy's desperation brings in mercenaries: Aberama Gold and his lethal, prizefighter son, Bonnie. Savage, bruised, and devastatingly charming, Bonnie is everything Cora has been sheltered from. To Aberama, Cora is a distraction that will get his son killed. To Tommy, Bonnie is just a hired fist who has no business breathing the same air as his baby sister. But in the claustrophobic, smoke-filled rooms of a family at war, the electric pull between the gypsy fighter and the mafia princess is instantaneous. And catastrophic. Because in a vendetta where one wrong move means a bullet, falling for a Shelby might just be the prettiest poison of them all.

Axel Saruhito is the sun on Northwood College's campus. As the easy-going, cheerful basketball captain, he's everyone's "big bro"-a protector and a friend. But his warmth is a carefully crafted mask. When night falls, Axel becomes the cold and commanding head of an influential gang, a man whose authority is absolute. Naoyuki Hyoma lives in the quiet shadows of academia. A stoic, top student, his disciplined world is unexpectedly disrupted by Axel's magnetic personality. At night, however, Naoyuki sheds his formal facade for a life of reckless partying and dangerous company, seeking an escape he can't define. When an unlikely class throws their daytime personas together, a tentative friendship begins. But a chance encounter in a smoky downtown club launches their hidden lives into the same orbit. A brief interaction between a fearsome gang leader and a nonchalant party-goer ends with a single, crucial clue left lingering in an alcohol-fueled haze: the unmistakable image of a phoenix tattoo. Where Daylight Ends is the beginning of the end for their secrets, a slow-burn story where the first crack in a carefully constructed world is about to appear.

He was once just a boy who disappeared without a trace-everyone believing he died, his name reduced to a memory and a closed case. In truth, he faked his death and vanished into an unknown country, where he rebuilt himself from nothing. Years of silence turned into power. Then survival turned him into something dangerous... the leader of the mercenaries. Now he's coming back home to the Philippines. Not as the boy they mourned...but as the man they were never meant to find again.

She ran away to escape him. He never stopped searching. FBI Special Agent Sophie Reeves has one mission: infiltrate crime boss Dominic Castellano's organization and rescue her kidnapped best friend. It should be simple-go undercover, gather intel, get out alive. There's just one problem: Dominic is her husband. Five years ago, Isabella Castellano disappeared, leaving behind a wedding ring and a man who refused to believe she was gone. Now, wearing a new name and a wire, Sophie walks back into his world-and straight into his arms. The moment their eyes meet at a high-society gala, her cover shatters. Dom knows exactly who she is. And he's not letting her go. Not this time. Trapped between the FBI, a ruthless crime lord, and the husband who still wears his wedding ring, Sophie must play the most dangerous game of her life. Because Dom doesn't just want answers. He wants his queen back. A dark, pulse-pounding romance where the past refuses to stay buried-and love is the most dangerous weapon of all.

PROLOGUE May mga tao talagang dumarating sa buhay mo nang sobrang aga. Yung tipong nakilala mo sila habang wala ka pang alam sa love, commitment, at consequences. Mga panahong akala mo ang pinakamalaking problema mo lang ay kung sino sasama sa'yo umuwi o kung sino may load para makapag-chat hanggang madaling araw. Isa si Dereck Lacsamana sa mga taong 'yon. Pero kung tutuusin, hindi naman talaga kami close noon. Kilala ko lang siya bilang isa sa mga tambay sa mall. Madalas tahimik. Laging nakasunod sa tropa. Minsan nakatawa lang sa gilid habang nag-iingay kaming lahat. Hindi rin siya yung tipo kong mapapansin agad. Sa totoo lang, mukha pa nga siyang dugyot dati. Payat, laging puyat, mukhang gangster na ewan tapos puro tigyawat pa sa noo at likod. Kapag nakikita ko siya noon, parang never ko naman naisip na darating yung panahon na magiging importante siya sa buhay ko. Mas busy kasi ako noon sa sarili kong gulo. At seventeen, feeling ko noon alam ko na lahat. Ako si Princess Andrea Smit. Isang normal na high school student na mas madalas nasa mall kaysa bahay. Hindi naman ako rebelde. Sadyang mas gusto ko lang tumambay kasama ng mga taong nagpaparamdam sa'kin na hindi ako nag-iisa.

Hey everyone.. This is the story of eye 👀 gang after Shreya was arrested and based on my imagination..

Secrets were always meant to stay buried. Atleast that's what Seonghwa thought. 𓆩༻˚•∘♡∘•˚༺𓆪 Seonghwa refuses to believe his brother is dead. While everyone else has moved on, he's still chasing fragments -- rumours, sightings, anything that suggests the truth was buried along with the body. His search drags him into places he was never meant to survive: underground streets ruled by gangs, engines screaming through illegal races, and deals made in the dark. That's where he meets Hongjoong -- sharp, unreadable, and deeply embedded in a world Seonghwa barely understands. Their partnership is born out of necessity, not trust. Hongjoong knows the streets; Seonghwa has a reason to burn everything down. Together, they start pulling at threads that were never meant to unravel. But the deeper they go, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Loyalties shift, enemies blur into allies, and somewhere between late-night races and near-fatal choices, something unexpected begins to grow between them. Because, to Seonghwa, finding his brother might mean losing everything else -- including himself. 𓆩༻˚•∘♡∘•˚༺𓆪 ateez!racerAU Matz centered ♡

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor was dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters -- Charlotte and Bailey -- who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. But things all changed when their father got sent to prison. Eight new social workers and five foster families later, the girls finally found their home. Now, at eighteen, Jade is counting down the days until her exams are over, excited to spend a stress-free summer with her boyfriend, her two best friends, and her forever family. Unfortunately, things don't always go to plan -- not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman brothers -- a family that fits so well into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid -- Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. And when she catches the eye of Lucas Coleman, the eldest of the brothers, it's only a matter of time before she falls. Only one question remains: Which way will she land?
