Yaki's Confession by Yakiscubicle

Yaki has kept her secret buried for years. Everyone thinks they know why she turned down Ekene-the perfect man, the unforgettable ex-to marry someone else. But the truth is darker, messier, and far more dangerous than anyone imagines. When Ekene suddenly reappears, the memories she tried to bury come rushing back. He was charm wrapped in perfection, but behind the glitter was pride, silence, and a love too fragile to survive reality. Now, through this confession, Yaki reveals what really happened-why she walked away, and the price she paid for choosing safety over desire. Yaki's Confession is a raw, gripping tale of first love, haunting choices, and the secret that refuses to stay hidden.

SCANDAL by goldstar0907

At 3:27 a.m., rain falls softly over Makoko, the kind of rain that feels less like weather and more like memory. Zainab Olawale stands beneath a flickering streetlight, holding a Bible she did not come to pray with. Inside it is a note written by a person who knew they might not survive long enough to explain. A name. A warning. A confession written in fear. Dimeji Koleosho. To most people, he is a senator. To Zainab, he is something closer to a wound. Years ago, her father lost everything. His reputation. His voice. His life, in ways that never made the news. No one ever told her why. Until now. Zainab is not searching for justice in the grand, heroic sense. She is searching for understanding. For the truth behind a past that refuses to stay buried. Each step she takes pulls her deeper into a Lagos that exists beneath the bright lights - a city of offshore accounts, silenced journalists, compromised pastors, and powerful men who never get their hands dirty. The closer she gets to the truth, the more she begins to understand that some secrets are not hidden. They are protected. And sometimes, the most dangerous moment is not when you uncover a secret... But when you realize you can no longer look away. Scandal is a story about power, silence, faith, and the quiet courage it takes to choose the truth, even when it costs everything.
