Gold's Devotion
Fortune and wealth that lead to one's great destiny or worse destruction always come with a price that requires one's whole devotion. Will it ever be enough to pursue a deep self-recognition?
It is a story where everything is determined by money and how it highly contributes to one's life and society. Money can either make or destroy one, according to how one prefers it to be. In this story, money's relevance is highlighted and shown in how it is used or how it uses people. Will the value of money be enough to buy the value of oneself?
A Florence Ace Santiano and Novia Cordero's story.
A story of a prestigious banker for 1% of the population and a nobody by birth, but was allowed to live an extravagant life, unknowingly, in exchange for her humanity.
Two seemingly similar yet very different backgrounds. How will Gold define them and their devotion towards themselves and others?

They may have taught her how to prosper in the legitimate society, but a tragic childhood event forced her to adapt into the criminal world in a way that ignited a violent fire within her.

Bow-Legged
Shall we do an experiment? Hear me out: an enemies-to-lovers where love is complicated but never toxic. Where the female lead knows what she wants and takes it. Where the male lead doesn't growl, rage or slam her into walls. A journey with all the angst, secrets, spice and heartbreak of dark romance without the abuse. Are you ready? ******************************************** It's 1984, Queen on the radio and rage in the streets. Moira Bourne, stretched thin between her nanny job, family drama and university classes, fights for the recognition she deserves. Evander Ward, fresh from a gap year in Europe and eager to prove himself, is ready for redemption. Two people whose paths were never meant to cross. When they do, the collision blows their life to smithereens. ******************************************** "Pass the tea, will you?". It came over me - it being it all, the shame, the anger, the sense of injustice and the nine hours I hadn't slept the night before. Those, maybe, more than anything else, because I reached for said tea and, possessed by that mighty cocktail of resentment, spat in it. I did so making sure he could see it, he could hear it. Then I passed it over to him and waited. His smile, at this point, had turned overjoyed, putting the previous ones to shame, revealing their graft. He had received the answer he was hoping for. He took the cup and chugged it down. Looked me straight in the eye and drunk it all. ******************************************** Fair warning: mentions of racism, ED, assault, sexism, and classism ahead. You know where your limits lie.

18 -year-old Fae Bloom has lived under the shadow of loss ever since both of her parents were killed in a violent accident tied to the underworld. Raised by her fragile grandmother Veronica, Fae has clung to a quiet life in their flower shop, dreaming of freedom far from the city's blood-soaked streets. But her world shatters again when Veronica falls ill-and Fae's greedy, debt-ridden father figure resurfaces with a deal that changes everything. To erase what he owes the Sterlings-the brutal mafia dynasty that rules the city through fear-Fae is sold to Syon Sterling, the twenty-one-year-old heir to the empire. Cold, calculating, and feared by all, Syon doesn't need a wife...but he needs leverage. And a girl like Fae, young, vulnerable, and unprotected, is the perfect pawn. On her nineteenth birthday, Fae is forced into a marriage she never wanted, bound by vows forged in blood instead of love. At first, she sees Syon only as her captor, a man whose world destroyed the family she once had. But as she's drawn deeper into the Sterling empire, Fae discovers that beneath Syon's ruthless exterior lies a man scarred by violence, burdened by legacy, and starved of something real. What begins as a cold arrangement slowly grows into something neither expected. Fae's quiet strength awakens something human in Syon, while his fierce protection teaches her that power doesn't always have to be cruel. Together, they learn to trust, to fight, and ultimately to love-not because of the deal that bound them, but in defiance of it. When Zyka Sterling, Syon's ruthless older sister, threatens to tear them apart and claim the throne for herself, Syon and Fae stand united. What started as a marriage of debt becomes a bond of choice-two hearts entwined in a world ruled by blood and betrayal. In the end, Fae is no longer the girl who was sold-she is Syon's equal, his partner, and the only one capable of standing beside him as love blooms in the darkest of places
