After a particularly tumultuous and controversial election in 2022, Bongbong Marcos and Sara Duterte ascend to the Presidency and Vice Presidency, propelled by coordinated efforts of the disinformation and revisionism machine. 

The Senate, about to start the 19th Congress, remained business as usual and dived into another round of clandestine compromises, shady under-the-table deals, and covert political maneuvers. As always, everyone in the chamber scrabbled for their share of the power pie (or called out those who dogfight for that share, for the more ethically inclined).

Within these decorated halls, we zoom in on four esteemed and honorable (though that may be debatable) lawmakers who attempt to navigate the august chamber amidst their hidden secrets, fears, and personal turmoil. 

However, their hidden closets shook with an ominous rattle, threatening to expose the skeletons bursting within. Can they keep the doors locked and their secrets safe? Or will the skeletons break free, forcing them to face the consequences of their past decisions?All Rights Reserved

But when he falls ill from the pestilence that's been ravaging Venice for months, she reluctantly dons the beaked mask of the plague doctor. Vowing to protect her father however she can, Giovanna hides him away and sees her first patient--the handsome, but alarmingly feverish Matteo Barozzi. Although she successfully treats this son of a high-ranking official, in a careless moment Giovanna fails to properly conceal her identity. The only reason she isn't tossed into a dank jail cell is thanks to the young man's honor and feelings of indebtedness. The association between the charming aristocrat and the clever commoner should end there, but when Giovanna's dearest friend goes missing right after her betrothal to the Doge's son and amid strange reports of nighttime attacks, violent commotions, and inexplicable behaviors in the community, the only person Giovanna can turn to for help is Matteo. Together, they must carefully navigate Venice's increasingly deadly canals to uncover a sect peddling false cures and a smuggling plot involving the highest levels of government or risk the entire Republic falling victim to something even worse than the plague: the risen dead.

Eliza-beth | Complete | unedited by S_Bhagat

This is an unedited first draft, which will soon go for major construction. Eliza-beth, where HIS secrets are revealed. Family breaks/unite, past is relived. Devil dies, heir rise, mafia politics...... After everything is at peace, at least I feel this way. After killing the man who destroyed my life, I find everyone played their part. They needed someone to put the blame and I was there with no one to defend me. So I paid the price of their mistakes. I lost my family, my life, my dreams but Karma is a bitch. Without doing anything, they all paid. But even after everything I loved them, I never wanted them to suffer but I can't fight with fate. Even with the mystery that my man in black hides. But I like to solve that mystery every day. "He said we were connected even before we born. I am his and he is mine. In this life and next life." (must read 'beth' to understand Eliza-beth) *Excerpt* "Valerio has his own issues." I snapped. "Calm down. You are behaving like a possessive woman." She tried to lighten my mood and laughed. But no....she failed. Because I didn't feel any humour in it. "I am a possessive Mrs ROGERS." I declared openly. "You are blind. Can't you see what he did?" She taunted me. "He's up to something...... Bigger. Heinous." She whispered.

Every Day in May (grand prize winner) ✔ by amberkbryant

***WINNER of the "BREATHTAKING: A FANTASY AND SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL WRITING COMPETITION!" "You are a secret kept from the world, but not from me." So begins the peculiar message found slipped under a bedroom door on the morning of May first. Theo is the heir to a powerful dictatorship. The number of people allowed to know he exists is few. He has spent his entire life walled up in the Tower, the looming stone monolith from which his father rules over the Land. Merryn is the daughter of political prisoners. She's known who Theo is longer than he would think possible, and she is taking a great risk contacting him via handwritten notes in order to convince him he deserves more than the fate his father has designed for him. She has one month to exchange daily messages with him, to answer his questions and open his eyes to the realities of a world he has never been allowed to see. A revolution is coming to the Land at the end of the month, and if Merryn's notes fail to get their point across, Theo may never live to see the sunrise on June first. A/N: The following letters were originally published each day from May 1st-31st, 2014. As you will see,Theo is allowed to write down a question for Merryn each evening, but you, the reader, won't see these within the body of the story. It may or may not be obvious from Merryn's response what Theo is asking. Part of the fun is guessing what his questions might be, but if you really want to know what they are, a list of those questions is at the end of the story. This story is a re-imagining of Rapunzel. Now, without further ado-I believe a young heir is about to unfold a slip of paper found on the tile floor near his door... Let's see what it says!

BINI-ridgerton 2 by rOrOrOr_27

**From the Column of Lady BINIridgerton** It appears that the Season has taken an unexpected turn, my dear readers, for after the grand marriage of the Duke, Mikhael Lim, to the ever-so-timid yet elegant Aiah Arceta, we now find ourselves amidst rumors that will surely shake the ton. The Duke and Duchess have settled into their domestic bliss, welcoming a handsome son into their world-he is but three months of age, and yet the Lims remain under the keen eyes of society. But, as with everything else, life must carry on, and I must direct your attention to people who have remained in the background for far too long. First there's *Cole Lim*, the Duke's gruff and stoic brother who despises anything loud or colorful. However, speculations circulate that his annoyance with the vibrant *Maloi Ricalde* is merely a disguise for something deeper. Could it be that underneath that frown there is affection? How beautifully ironic. Then there's *Gian Lim*, the silent and disinterested sibling who is as mysterious as he is nice. Rumor has it that the bashful Gian has long nursed a secret admiration for the Duchess's cousin, *Sheena Catacutan*. But will this shy man ever gather the confidence to express his emotions? Lastly, we come to *JR Lim*, the most jovial and exuberant of the Lim brothers. It seems that no one can escape his playful teasing, especially *Stacey Sevilleja*, the feisty cousin of the Duchess who is as obsessed with the color pink as she is with ribbons and lace. But dear readers, could there be more to his teasing than meets the eye? Perhaps JR's jests hide something much more tender. Oh, the scandals, the romance, the intrigue! The Season is ripe with possibilities. Keep your eyes sharp, for I, *Lady BINIridgerton*, shall reveal all the latest gossip.

Watching Sunrises by AngPaglayag

In the first of a series of spin-offs to Talk First, Think Later, Pia and Loren, whose relationship status still remains in limbo, find themselves on two different paths after the Great Senate Feud of 2025. On one path, there's Pia, thrust into the gargantuan task of being part of the new Senate leadership in one of the most polarizing administrations. On the other, there's Loren, who just ended her 27-year Senate career and jettisoned to London on short notice after her so-called "allies" dropped the ball on her in the hopes of fixing herself and her family out of the public eye. How long can Pia hold on to every hope before the dam breaks? Will Loren keep her promises, or will she bail once more?

Violet Potter and the Basilisk Plague (Year Two) by ShawnaMScott

Violet Potter's Second Year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has begun. When Harry Potter and his best friend, Ron Weasley are almost expelled for (illegally) flying an enchanted car from London to Hogwarts, the calculating and brutal Head of Slytherin House, Professor Snape, personally warns Violet against further fraternization with any Gryffindors. Her own brother and his closest friends in particular. The insufferable Draco Malfoy, the always stuck-up Pansy Parkinson, and several of their cronies also take it upon themselves to give Violet (and Harry) even more grief. The new DADA teacher, while at least not one harboring any dark wizards on the back of his head, is unfortunately as incompetent and narcissistic as a Gilderoy might come, and very likely a complete phony. And what exactly is the deal with the Malfoy family's house-elf anyway? Or the elf that the Maynard family used to own? Violet soon has bigger problems to worry about when the legendary Chamber of Secrets is reopened, as muggle-borns all over the school are turning up petrified. And, worst of all, almost everyone seems to think that Harry and Violet have something to do with these attacks. Even in spite of the fact that Violet and Victoria among a few others have volunteered to work tirelessly with helping Professor Sprout to prepare the antidote and venturing into the other three chambers while Harry, Ron, and Hermione are racing against time to solve the mystery of the infamous Chamber of Secrets itself. But the true culprits are far more sinister than most could ever imagine... Disclaimer: This is a fan reimagining of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling. I own nothing other than the characters I made up.
