WORK IN PROGRESS‼️ ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ── There was no noise; I was at peace, and ironically, the stone-cold pavement never seemed warmer as my blood oozed out of me and around me like a painted canvas. I was slowly losing consciousness, but my mind never seemed happier now that I was dying. The white walls with big bright lights did not resemble heaven; in fact, it was quite the opposite. I thought I had died. When I came to, I found myself in this strange place, disoriented and confused. I looked around and found another five pairs of eyes looking at me with the same emotion swirling in their gaze. Now, 15 years later, I train with these girls. Our makers take care of us, feed us, and make sure we are clean, healthy, and fit. Some of us never had that; that's probably why it took so long for us to realize we were being used. The dirty work they made us do, none of us questioned it. How could we when we were taken off the streets? For a chance at normalcy, we settled for anything, even if that meant blurring the lines of right and wrong. After a mission gone haywire, we started noticing, and now we strike back to take our voices and reclaim the power that was used on us as a way to control us. After all, they are the ones who trained us; we are just returning our long-overdue favour. ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ── Rankings : Featured in Mystery-thriller #5 in Mystery-thriller on 7/12/24

He notices things he doesn't want to see. His thirst for vengeance and hunger for murder fuels his new goal. Kill the person he once cared about. Since his tragic past, an FBI agent turned drifter has been hell-bent on delivering justice mercilessly. The former intelligence agent travels to Santa Monica to right a wrong that may or may not be wrong. An aspiring and young screenwriter who never gives up easily is falsely accused of a crime he did not commit, given the fact that all evidence pointed to the young man. There is no one he can turn to, no one who truly believes him. Until the day before his alleged arrest, he was given the option of going to jail or going with a stranger to prove his innocence. A rookie FBI agent who was recently tasked with going into the field and finding the agency's most valuable asset becomes entangled in a mess after teaming up with the one person she was asked to find. It could be costly for her, putting her limbs, career, and possibly her life in jeopardy. It all started with an indirect murder.

If We Don't Make It - [GxG] [wlw]
A list. Twenty names. One killer no one can find. When an anonymous social media account starts posting a hit list of students from Westbrook High, panic spreads like wildfire. The town is in chaos. The police have no leads. And as each name is crossed out, one by one, it becomes clear: no one is safe. For Ivy, the list is a death sentence she never signed up for. For Rowan, it's just another game she refuses to lose. They were strangers before this-now, survival ties them together in a way neither of them expected. With a secret alliance forming between those on the list, Ivy and Rowan are forced to rely on each other. Hatred turns into something else, something sharp and breathless. But as the bodies pile up, one thing becomes clear: someone is watching. And they don't just want to kill. They want to play.

The Painting
"It took me five seconds to fall. The impact on my chest jarring my body but not my mind. I suppose this is the point where your life is supposed to flash before your eyes as time itself freezes - and it did in a way. But I didn't relive my life physically like walking through an old memory, déjà vu in each step. It was a feeling, something that started in my chest and spread to my fingertips, one so unique to me that it encapsulated each significant event into one single second." For as long as May can remember one mystery has haunted her world. A dirty window before her, the grim obstructing her vision, she has lived with a loss she can't identify - that is until one rainy night. Gradually the spots of dirt May scratched at for so long wipe away with the touch of a finger. But when she looks in will she like what she sees - or will curiosity kill the cat?Cerita Lengkap
Incommensurable Kindness
A geneticist looking for the perfect solution, a biologist searching for the ultimate cure, a scholar pursuing the path of happiness. Three young lives with noble intentions who chose to follow the way of kindness for different reasons. Yet, kindness can take many forms. For some, kindness is found in the small, fleeting acts of goodness, a reminder of the pure, social nature of every precious human. For others, kindness is found in ensuring the best possible future for the incoming generations, even if it means crushing the present between the hands of progress. For the rarest of minds, however, kindness implies destruction, the sacrifice of everything for the sake of a brand new better world. Will they encounter change their mind? Will they accomplish their mission? Will they regret the choices they have made so far? Some believe that even the tiniest pebble thrown in the river of life can irreversibly shape the flow of existence in unpredictable ways, but can a ripple truly change the world?
