She doesn't fall in love. She doesn't let people in. She doesn't kneel. Matilda Evans has spent her whole life in control - of her art, her space, and the carefully locked rooms inside her. When Noah Albert walks into her world with his money, his patience, and his willingness to follow every rule she sets, she tells herself it's simple. Clean. On her terms. But Noah is not what she expected. And Matilda is not as untouchable as she thought. She makes the rules. He follows them. Neither of them planned on feelings. A story about power, patience, and the terrifying possibility of letting someone see the parts of you that were made in the dark. Becoming Matilda is a slow-burn dark romance - for readers who like their love stories complicated, their heroines in control, and their endings earned. By Artemis Light.

One misstep. One wrong decision. One small mistake. A life spirals into a nightmare of unbearable pain and torment. The world fractures drenched in despair and silent screams. Each year, the same horror returns: AUCTIONS. Not for objects. But for youth. Beauty is currency. Worth is measured by how untouched you are. No gender. No name. Only skin, age, and price. An appetite fueled by the world's darkest desires. But time steals everything. When the next auction comes, your value dies. The cycle repeats until someone chooses the wrong person, realizing too late that not everyone is the same. In Goa, a reckless school trip drifts beyond the veil of safety. A wild hearted few slip away from watchful teachers, drawn by whispers of freedom. They uncover a secret everyone knew, but no one chose to speak of. A silent horror they refuse to accept. Children, barely older than them, ensnared in a merciless export dream. Their silence is a noose too late to scream, too bound to break free. The group is caught; some flee like shadows in the night. Some are bound in the export. Among the restless captives, a singular soul moves apart. Wounded and fierce, with eyes that see where others only blink. To the rich, she is poison. A fault line in their perfect world. A savage whisper that not everything can be broken. The captor's final mistake was not capturing someone without an identity. but sending them to auction. That mistake becomes a noose, unleashing a reckoning. No puppet master can hold back the storm that devours the hands trying to guide it. Some villains are loud. Some heroes are brave. But the most terrifying is the one who remembers everything, speaks nothing, and shows it all. They ask: WHY GET INTO MY HEART when you had none? ~ WRITER @THRAYAKH __________________________________ Series edits and illustrations available on YouTube, Instagram and Pinterest. @THRAYAKH Follow and subscribe for more

Every monster has an origin. Every legend has a lie. For as long as Aurelia Valenti can remember, she has lived between two worlds. To humanity, she is ordinary. To the Bloodbound Syndicate-the secret organization that has kept the supernatural world hidden for centuries-she is the trusted mediator who prevents ancient rivalries from becoming bloody wars. When the Syndicate's enigmatic leader, Lucien Vale, dies under mysterious circumstances, Aurelia is left with one final gift: a letter, a hidden archive, and a trail of forgotten history someone has spent centuries trying to erase. As powerful clans battle for control of the Syndicate, Aurelia is drawn into a conspiracy older than vampires, witches, werewolves, and every bloodline that claims to know the world's beginnings. The deeper she searches, the more she realizes that monsters were never the greatest danger. The truth is. With enemies closing in from every side and a mysterious woman whose motives are as dangerous as they are impossible to ignore, Aurelia must decide who deserves her trust before the past rewrites the future. Because some secrets were buried for a reason. And some bloodlines were never meant to be remembered. The Bloodbound Syndicate is a dark fantasy filled with ancient secrets, supernatural politics, forbidden history, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance, morally gray characters, and the haunting question: What if the monsters were never born... but made?

THE CLERY ACT The world is governed by invisible rules that most people follow without even noticing them. Yet, some laws are born from tragedy and become symbols created to protect lives. In College Station, Texas, the days seem to follow the same pattern: students rush to their lecture halls, professors deliver their lessons, and the university appears to be a place where knowledge and harmony prevail. But behind this peaceful appearance lie secrets that few people dare to confront. Professor Robert Green knows this better than anyone. Respected for his intelligence and admired for his mastery of history, he nevertheless carries a heavy burden. Decisions made in the shadows, hidden identities, and forbidden truths threaten to disrupt countless lives. In a world where the line between good and evil becomes increasingly fragile, one question remains: How far is a human being willing to go to protect a secret? What seemed like a simple university routine will become the beginning of a story where every choice will have irreversible consequences. Because some laws are not only meant to protect the world. They can also reveal what the world desperately tries to hide.

Some love stories are not about happy endings-they're about the kind of love that breaks, burns, and still lingers in the shadows of your soul. Arvi was brilliance wrapped in grace, the girl everyone admired but no one truly reached until Preksh did. A chance meeting at a wedding turned into an unexpected bond at a coaching center, where they studied side by side, chasing the same dream: to become doctors. But while Arvi soared through NEET, Preksh stumbled. She moved forward; he took a drop year. What followed was a long-distance relationship stitched together with faith, surprise visits, and midnight calls. For five years, they fought for love against time, expectations, and the distance. Until one day, she vanished. A betrayal. A silence that screamed. A rumor that she was no more. Blocked and broken, Preksh never stopped texting her. Not a single message was ever seen. Until - 3:00 a.m. Notification: Message from an Unknown Number Could it really be her? Or was this just another twist in a love story already too tragic? Some answers can only be found in the spaces between two hearts... and one final message. In Case You Ever Come Back is a story of first love, lost dreams, long-distance scars, and the haunting ache of unfinished endings.
