After five long years, Tyvon Raleigh Sands comes back to his family home in Los Angeles after mysteriously disappearing a week after his 17th birthday. When he knocks on the front door and is greeted by his sister, Regina, and his mother, Victoria, it's a miraculous reunion that is everything that the Sands family could possibly dream of.
 
But, there's Odell, the charismatic patriarch and head of Techtonic, a company specializing in augmented reality that has taken the world by storm. He appears delighted by the return of his long-lost son, but are things as they truly seem on the surface?
 
Tyvon also has a mysterious, eccentric figure waiting in the wings who has been mentoring him throughout the years he's been gone. Tyvon isn't quite the same as he was before his disappearance, and this mentor of his assisted in salvaging his sanity after it was pushed to its limits during the first year of his absence. When the two sides of Tyvon's life threaten to clash, will Tyvon have the fortitude to persevere, or will the tumultuous, difficult dynamics that have always plagued the Sands family be too much for Tyvon to handle?

The Enigma Protocol: No Brother of Mine (Book 1) by InkVail
15 parts Ongoing
Two estranged brothers. One ancient secret. And nowhere to run, not from Enigma, and not from each other. But history won't hand you the truth. You'll have to piece it together yourself. Ask questions. The story might answer back. *** Teorin is close to uncovering the truth behind his father's disappearance, until a stolen drive puts him in the crosshairs of the one person he can't outrun: the brother who left him behind. Marcus walked away to protect his family. Now an old ally drags him back into his brother's orbit, forcing a choice: expose the truth, seek revenge, or protect the brother he thought he'd already lost. In a world scarred by solar storms, power isn't just political, it's biological. People are born with affinities-heat, memory, pressure, time-and someone in the shadows is erasing anyone who digs too deep. 📖 Told through prose, in world documents, and comment threads (yes, the actual comments). Each voice carries its own style, from clipped restraint to dramatic flair. The Enigma Protocol isn't just a story; it's a reconstruction. You'll have to decide where the truth lies. A slow-burn science-fantasy epic for fans of The Expanse, Mistborn, and Annihilation-where found family and fractured loyalties collide with ancient mysteries. 💬 Take part if you want. Ask. Dig. Connect the dots. The story gives as much as you do. ⚠️ Warning: Characters may break containment (yes, they might reply to you). Meet your host on the "Welcome Page"-an optional in-universe introduction. Also available on Royal Road.

Heavy is the Middle

32 parts Complete Mature

Being the middle daughter in a Haitian family is a full-time job-and Nadine Pierre is done clocking in. Her parents built an import-export empire and a legend to match. Big sister Roseline is the crown jewel-married, pregnant, polished at the company. Baby sister Jessica shines at school with perfect plans. Nadine? She's the curvy one, the single one, the "too much" one-writing a Black culture column that her mama calls a hobby and her editor calls "rebrandable." When her column gets cut and her mama parades an ex like a solution, Nadine snaps. Writing is the only place she feels alive-she won't trade it for a smile and a husband. Then comes Tariq, the Ledger's golden boy, assigned as her "balance" on a new dating series about hit reality show Heatwave. He's infuriating, incisive, and the only man who gets under her skin without even touching her. Heavy Is the Middle is messy, sexy, and unapologetic-about body shame, Haitian family politics, and wanting more than survival. For every Black girl told she was too loud, too big, too single, or too much-and burned brighter anyway.
