Young maidens are being raped and murdered in Amaife. The killer always leaves behind a souvenir: A torn piece of 'okrika' clothe. The once peaceful community is thrown into chaos; the masses are provoked, the elders are clueless, families are scared and the gods of the land seem powerless to stop the murders.

A young team arrives from the city for a week long crusade and the young evangelists meet the village in a state of emergency. The leader, a young pastor named Osi meets Amara, a beautiful, intelligent girl and they develop feelings for each other as they try to solve the crime(s)

The killer is a member of the community; very intelligent, cunning and dangerous but who? Who could be behind such gruesome acts? Surely not a man but a devil.
And beautiful Amara is his next target.....All Rights Reserved

Less Than My Spec✔︎ by nma_writes

What is your spec? I mean those qualities you desire your future partner to possess? Definitely not being way below in the social ladder right? Especially when you are the lady in the picture. Amarachi Jessica Okpara, alias, Ajay also thought the same way. Being a successful career woman with a pretty face and nice body, she couldn't settle for less..... Or so she thought... Until she met the one who changed her life.... ************************************************** That was when I noticed how close he was to me. His huge manly figure towering over me like I was something he wanted to protect, like I was a precious gem he found. Could he be the man God has chosen for me? Because judging from events, he was the first man I saw after my long night vigil. But then I took another good look at him. I cringed at my own thoughts. 'Ewww! Ajay, how could such a lame thought creep into your lousy head?' God will definitely not give me such an ugly-faced illiterate. I got away from him immediately. "Aunty your phone...." He called, running to meet me. He handed the phone to me giving me that same sheepish smile. And again I was disappointed that I could think of this irritating guy as an option. Jeez! Definitely not what I want! DEFINITELY NOT MY SPEC! ************************************************* A 17+ novel Impressive Rankings 1- #Africa🤭🤭🤭❣️ 1- #specifications 1- #nigeriannovel 2- #Igbo 2- #Lagos Amazing cover by Me☺️☺️ Photo credit: Mercy Eke UNEDITED‼️ Started: May 2021 Ended: April 2022

Her lips were still quivering out of shock and her breathing distorted. "Obiukwu" She finally let out still battling with unsteady breathing. He adjusted the cuff of his pristine white shirt and helped her up. "For a girl with a boy's name you certainly do not think like one. Usually when a female dog comes after you, you don't run towards her young puppies, you run far away from them". She adjusted her pleated skirts which had been torn while she ran frantically from the enraged beast.

SHAMBLES by Damzeee

"Are you ready?" I said to her placing her long silky hair at the back of her head. She nodded. Her bewitching smile sending immense pleasure to my body. I pushed into her slowly- carefully and then with a little force. She forced a smile at first and in seconds her face had turned pale, hysterical- beastly! "Shit!. Shit!. Stoppppp Dotun - Please stopp." She screamed loudly like she was in enormous pain. I felt like I was in another world, lost in a haze of sensations-almost like I had found a place that felt like home. But then, reality struck. No matter how intense the moment, when a woman says stop, you stop. It doesn't matter how powerful the desire burning through you is. "Shit!" I yelled, fighting to pull myself back from the edge. The tension within me was overwhelming, the kind that tempts you to ignore everything but your own feelings. But I knew better-her voice, her comfort, and her trust meant everything. The desire could wait. Respect couldn't. Dammit!!! The sweet taste of a woman!!! Her personality, A ferocious saint, like fire and brimstone. He on the other hand, is like water yet powerless against her fire She was broken, a puzzle that was missing a piece. But he was willing to carve his own piece to complete her. They said her fire would consume him. But he was ready to be destroyed by her raging flames! Ranked 1 in #nigerianstories
