He watched the sky fall apart, the sea crashing onto his bones, and the earth swallowing him whole.

Echoes Of Me
A Novel of Memory, Love, and the Voice That Won't Let You Forget Seventeen-year-old Eli Reyes is haunted-by versions of himself he can't name, by a voice that calls at 3:17 a.m., and by a sketchbook full of drawings he doesn't remember making. The phone rings in the middle of the night, always from an unknown number. But the voice on the other end? It knows things. Things only he could know. As Eli begins to unravel the truth behind the calls, he's forced to face a past long buried: a fractured relationship with his father, a silence born from trauma, and the soft, tender version of himself he tried to forget to survive. Along the way, there's Luca-the boy who sees through Eli's defenses and refuses to let go, even when Eli tries to run. This isn't a ghost story. This is a story about what it means to remember. To be seen. To choose yourself. To stop waiting for someone to save you and start answering your own call. Poetic, heart-wrenching, and hopeful, Echoes of Me is a short novel for anyone who's ever been afraid of who they are... and dared to love anyway.Complete![Precolonial Philippines & Fiction [14,494 words]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/319503634-256-k812718.jpg)

Blood of Forgotten Gods
Blood of the Forgotten Gods By Velastrea For centuries, the world believed the old gods simply vanished. That they faded into myth under the shadow of colonization and the rise of religion. But the truth was buried-literally. The Spanish conquest was not just a thirst for land or souls-it was a secret mission ordered by the Vatican to hunt down the ancient gods, goddesses, and anitos of the world. One by one, they were captured, chained, or forced into hiding, their names erased from prayers and pages. Their temples burned. Their stories silenced. But the blood of the divine cannot be killed. Mayari, a quiet Filipina girl from a remote province, was born with power humming in her veins. At two, she healed the dying. At ten, she made the crops bloom in a dying land. At eighteen, her eyes glow like the moon when she prays. Her family has hidden her gifts all her life, but destiny can only be delayed, not denied. Now, haunted by visions of gods in chains and guided by whispers of a past buried in the roots of her bloodline, Mayari must journey into the heart of the enemy-the Vatican itself. To awaken the imprisoned, to reclaim the forgotten, and to ignite the divine war long overdue. Because the gods are not dead. They are waiting.
