The world is a shattered mosaic of ruins and desolation, a canvas painted with the remnants of a once-thriving civilization. Towers of concrete lie crumbled like ancient giants, and the sky, once a tapestry of vibrant blues, is now veiled in a perpetual haze. Humanity, in its struggle for dominance, unleashed cataclysmic forces that obliterated the familiar world.

Amidst this desolate landscape, two figures navigate the remnants of what was once a bustling city. Alex, a young man of 24, possesses a sharp intellect veiled behind a calm exterior. His eyes reflect the weight of the world he's come to understand, harboring a relentless determination to survive and decipher the mysteries shrouding their confined existence.

Beside him strides Maya, a fiercely independent spirit. Aged 25, she embodies resilience and a fiery determination to chart her own destiny. Her gaze is a blend of curiosity and defiance, an unwavering resolve to break free from the constraints imprisoning their lives.

Their paths intersect in this desolate expanse, a meeting that fate orchestrates amidst the chaos, setting the stage for an extraordinary journey of revelation and self-discovery. Together, they will unravel the secrets veiled by the oppressive regime controlling their confined world.All Rights Reserved

For centuries, the two clans coexisted under an uneasy truce, their histories intertwined yet fraught with tension. At the heart of this world lies Ocean, a girl marked by her lineage and haunted by tragedy. Born to the Witch Queen of Montana, Ocean's life is forever altered when a brutal attack by the Vampire King's forces devastates her village, annihilating her family and her clan. As the smoke of destruction dissipates, Ocean escapes into the depths of the ancient forest, the only sanctuary left to her.

Always Almost Yours by inked_wildflower

When Emma Carrington first met Alex Grayson in the bustling heart of New York City, she thought he was everything she wasn't looking for. He was restless, impulsive, and far too charming for his own good. But as they crossed paths over coffee shop counters and rainy park benches, their magnetic connection slowly drew them together, even as Emma fought to keep her distance. For someone like her-wounded and cautious after a painful past-falling in love wasn't an option. Yet love found her anyway, relentless and unyielding, until Emma could no longer deny it. She and Alex were fire and gasoline, made for fleeting passion, not permanence. Just as she finally lets herself surrender to the fragile hope of a future together, Alex receives a life-altering offer halfway across the world, one he can't refuse but that could destroy them. With oceans and years stretching between them, Emma and Alex make a pact: to live their separate lives and meet again in five years, when everything will finally be right for them. But when those years pass, they discover that fate has other plans, and the choices they've made have forever reshaped the people they've become. In the end, they are forced to confront a devastating question: Will the love they fought so hard to preserve be enough to bring them back together? Or have they been living for an ending that was never meant to be?
