The Little Matchmaker
Lauren never meant to draw attention in her new job. As a single mother, all she wanted was stability - a steady paycheck, quiet mornings, and a safe world for her little girl, Evie. Her new boss, Alexander Reid, is a 37-year-old CEO known for his precision and cold professionalism. His office is a place of glass walls, muted colors, and strict order. To him, emotion is a distraction - until a small crayon drawing appears on his desk one Monday morning. A messy little picture of "Mommy at Work," complete with sparkles and a smiling stick figure version of himself. At first, he's mildly annoyed - but when Lauren rushes in, embarrassed and apologizing for her daughter's "accident," something softens. He sees in her eyes the exhaustion, the grace, and the quiet strength of someone doing everything alone. Over time, the little drawings keep coming. Sometimes they're tucked into his planner. Sometimes Evie shyly waves at him when Lauren picks her up after work. Against all his instincts, Alexander finds himself smiling more, staying late not for business - but for the company. As Lauren's confidence grows and Alexander's walls start to crumble, the office becomes something warmer, livelier... more like home. But when whispers start spreading in the company and Lauren fears losing her job, the two must decide: protect their growing feelings, or risk it all for a chance at something real - a family neither of them expected.
The Hymn Of Destruction
There are situations disguised as blessings that turn people's world upside-down, spiralling down uncontrolled, sinking together to the point of no return. Sometimes greediness wormed its way and people wants time to freeze just to savour the moment a little bit longer. On the other hand, her life was handled too cruelly and suffered unimaginable sufferings and losses. The pain was her constant companion that guided her to move forward. It was pain that taught her that the world is cruel and embracing darkness is the only way to live, for it will always be true. A rarity in the world she is now. Emotions are fickle things, and there is no room for it in this place. Life in exchange for peace and slippery freedom. Blood for the sake of principles. She is an unknown pawn in the game of chess that will be used to destroy the enemy. She is the black horse silently tearing its way into the lion's den. Will she prevail? Or is her darkness within becomes her undoing? A battle of dominance is brewing. There is no time to hesitate as the enemy sets their eyes on her, waiting to strike at her most vulnerable.
