Being gifted with such a forgettable face, Mikah Kymani fails time and time again to use this strange power correctly within the fallen community of Illaoi. Lacking a true identity, Mikah struggles to find meaning in a life so stationary. However, with constant flashbacks to the past, his patience begins to dwindle and rebellion sparks. Will the meaning of this power be revealed after all that is unveiled, or once more, will he find a way to misuse it? ____________________ Unaware of its depth, the plummet seemed endless. A spiral into the forbidden. My eyes struggled to stay open against the wind's forceful lashing. A suffocating clench that kept my body fighting for air. I felt like I was going to die. And somehow, that thought was the most soothing. Why should we fear this lasting escape from all hell on earth? Why is the easy way out, the hardest to crave? Gathering my final breath, at last, I broke through what seemed like glass. The peace that lay within a moment of such freedom had shattered, forcing the remnants and recollections of reality to pierce my skin, vengefully. A spiteful beating for having felt that serenity, even for a single second. We lived in captivity. Forever and always. Surely, I was reminded of that.

  • Stuck on his Canvas

It started with a grocery store encounter-one of those small, embarrassing moments that somehow changes everything. She wasn't looking for love. He wasn't supposed to notice her. But when Pedro, a charming actor with a quiet kind of gravity, crosses her path, something unexpected sparks. What begins as a coincidence turns into stolen moments, laughter, and nights that feel too good to be real. He's patient, attentive, the kind of man who listens when she talks and holds her like he means it. And she, for the first time in years, lets herself believe that happiness might actually be simple. But love always asks for something in return. And some connections cost more than anyone could ever imagine. A slow-burn romance that explores desire, trust, and what it means to surrender to something that feels written in the stars. Your story contains graphic depictions of violence, sexuality, strong language, and/or other mature themes.
