"In older days,
The poets sang
Of the one that was to come
A fate untied
A soul unbound
The Great War to be won..."
Layala is a Nigerian American college student who believes in just a few things. She believes that her friends have her back, that her grandmother on her mom's side is a few eggs short of an omelet, and she believes life will eventually get better if she just...keeps her head down and hopes for the future.
Yet events are unfolding around her that will force her to believe in ways she never has before.
In herself.
In her ancestors.
In the love that has found her.
And in the power to see much more than others will ever understand that has awakened in her.
Suddenly Layala is thrust into a war of epic proportions and in which she will have to choose who to trust, who to save, and who to love.
A tale of darkness and light
Good and evil.
What has passed...
And what is to come...
And one girl...
may be the key to it all.
If only she sees.

Ten different lives. Two boys. One night that'll bring them all together. Sixteen year old Nosa is okay with being a loner. He doesn't have social anxiety-- he's Catholic and his mum promised you can't love Jesus and have a disorder. He's just weird and he's not good at talking to people but that doesn't mean there's something wrong with him. It does mean that he and Irekan could never be friends. Irekan's parents moved them back to Nigeria to straighten him up-- literally. Being Nigerian and queer has never been easy but now he has to at least try to 'ungay' himself to keep his family together. And that means no falling in love with Nosa's stupid face. Two boys fall in love over novels, anime and rock music that's definitely going to get one of them killed. ❀Winner: 2022 Pride Awards Teen Fiction Category❀ ❀2nd Place Winner: 2022 Pride Awards❀ ❀Featured on the AmbassadorsNG reading list❀ ❀Featured on Stories Undiscovered August 2022 reading list❀ ❀Featured on AmbassadorsAF reading list❀ __Highest Rankings__ #1 wattpadnigeria (3/08/2022) #1 Africanbook (8/05/2022) #1 Africanlgbt (8/05/2022) #5 Blackboys (12/05/2022) #2 Nigerianbook (15/07/2022) #13 Young Adult Fiction (23/06/2024) **This is a bl and it features multiple queer characters.
