[CELEBRATE AFRICA AWARDS 2021 WINNER]

'The world has its Gods, and its Devils too . . .'

The misfit. Denrele Ọrẹoluwa Balogun was set apart because he had the same red hair as those who have the ability to control fire. But while he lacked that ability, this didn't stop the society from treating him differently, until the day he set the world on fire . . .

The assassin. Cass was only in The Damned Lands for one reason and there were supposed to be no detours. But what's a girl got to do when she met the intriguing Denrele and mistakenly killed hundreds of people? Definitely not kill more people, but that's what Cass-and Denrele-did anyway.

Two connected people find themselves working together to save their lives and the lives of people they love, but the more they run, the more they seem to be entangled in a web of conspiracies from The Blessed Lands. However, sometimes, all you have to do is let the world burn.All Rights Reserved

REDEMPTION by Nyctophile_22

2nd Place in The Dragon Fire Awards 3rd Place in Science Fiction in the Tricolour Terrenial Awards. " No one was truly your own in this world. Everyone, in the deepest parts of their hearts, cared only for themselves. And even if true love did exist, you can never truly understand someone. You can never know what is going on in the other person's head. For all you know, the person can be looking at you with loving eyes, full of bliss, but really they are battling their own, inner demons, keeping secrets buried and telling lies to cover up. That's what people do. That's what everyone does. Keep their demons buried and tell lies to keep them buried. And people love so that they can heal, so that they can find relief from continuously battling their demons. To have someone to share their burden with. And havoc occurs when the demon is stronger than your will, when love isn't enough to keep the monster at bay. " A girl, torn between her heart and mind. A boy, set out to avenge his parents. A pair of twins with only one, deadly goal in their life. A country ruled and oppressed by a power-hungry mad man. Will they ever be free?

✨️ ONC Longlisted Story ✨️ I didn't know when we met that I was picking my partner for the apocalypse. In fact, when I first met Dec I wasn't even looking for love. Then he swept me off my feet.

Declan Kirkman was everything I wasn't. Strong, confident and the ultimate ready-for-anything boy scout. I was dreamy, distracted and would forget my head if it wasn't screwed on. The day the world ended I wasn't ready for my 3pm presentation, let alone zombies. I never expected us to be fighting for our lives and each other, but if anyone can stop me from becoming an all you can eat zombie buffet it's him! Based on prompt 32 of the @OpenNovellaContest One of the scouts has spotted a large herd that is heading directly for your settlement. How do you deal with the threat?

After a long anticipated party hosted by one of the most popular boys in school, a rumour goes round the entire school and gets the names of the two least expected classmates, in the mouths of the entire population of Castron High. One word: Madness. 𝑫𝒂𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒖𝒄𝒉𝒊 𝑶𝒓𝒋𝒊 - a major 'outcast', a girl who barely escaped being at the full disadvantaged end of the Social hierarchy, because she was saved, hidden, and protected under the wings of one of the most highly placed cliques in her set - realises that as a result of this ridiculous and unexpected rumour, she may just be about to bite more than she can chew. Unspeakable dares are passed on. Sealed pledges are made, the worst of pairs are forced to match-make, secrets are revealed, the mystery behind the strangest, most unusual people are discovered, and the most dangerous games are played when the notorious gang boys/hoodlums, known for terrorising the school come into the whole story, thirsty for blood. Most alarming yet, an outcast who has always been the centre of attention for the wrong reasons and a damaged playboy with narcissistic traits dare to fall in love in a world that forbids them to. In the end, all that's left to realise it that every teenager is one way broken and needs saving. ❦︎ In a world where home is equivalent to Hell, and Highschool is a society, reeking of vanity, where social hierarchy is the order of the day, and the madness to maintain status quo is a much bigger deal than it should be, anyone is bound to lose their goddamn mind. Two broken teenagers, living the same unbearable reality, and struggling to know who they are, find solace, and a means of escape, with each other. But is it really worth it?

Winner of The People's Choice Awards by Phoenix Wars. #1 winner in Paranormal in the Pixie Awards [2019] 4th place in the Sassy Awards [2020] As a child, Theresa was given, the worst fate imaginable; to be without the ones she loves. More than that, the betrayal of being thrown into a dark, dangerous sanatorium by those very people, something no one really heals from. In a shadowed world populated by the insane, and the decrepit. Ran by those who care more for greed than people, do you think you could survive long enough to see freedom? Theresa had no choice. At the age of 10, her happy childhood was ripped away. Her trust and love shattered by those she trusted most of all. Why? You ask. All because her parents found out that she was had been having nightly conversations with a dead relative. Years passed, with Theresa slowly learning that in order to escape, she must subdue a part of herself. Broken and depressed, she eventually meets someone who would alter the flow of her fate. The oddest things begin to happen, and with a rush of speeding time, she ends up with a group of self-proclaimed "Paranormal Hunters". With help from the crew and the few friends she makes, she shows the world and herself just how far her powers go. But nothing is without consequence. Fate will not let her go so easily, and along the way, she will encounter people and otherworldly beings both, some who wish to hinder, some who wish to help. But can you ever really trust a spirit? This journey may teach her things about herself that no one could predict...

Playing House by Iyero123

18+ only! 🔥🔥🔥 | Toyin was living her best life! She had the perfect job with an Oil Major, amazing friends, a suitor and a fabulous apartment with a view of the Atlantic Ocean. Life was good until an unexpected breakup led her to the hot but NFA (No Future Ambition) Osaze. An odd pairing which helps her discover herself nonetheless. 🌴 Osaze didn't know what he was doing with his life anymore. He spontaneously quit his dream job as a top programmer with Google 3 years ago, moved back to Nigeria to start up his own tech company but failed miserably, was swindled out of his own code by ruthless business partners and is left with a million dollar debt to pay back to his investors. He now squats with a childhood friend in a dilapidated mansion (which is on the market by the way) and drinks his failure away in Lagos bars. When he meets Toyin, a young high flying oil & gas exec who has her own life together he starts to reevaluate his whole existence.
