Second Ave Offices: The Time In Between (WLW)
Fiona Kokkinos is a third generation Greek immigrant whose family came over for a work and land opportunities in the late 1800s. Now in the present, she is a successful therapist and works out of a building sharing some kind of comic book company, which tends to garner her attention relatively often. However, not for the reason she ever believed possible. After a chance encounter with one of the employees at the comic book suites on the first floor, Fiona finds herself spiraling toward something she never saw coming and must decide if she can truly, wholeheartedly open herself up to her life's new, seemingly boundless possibilities. Kanda Boom-Nam moved to the US nearly six months ago and despite it being a whirlwind of emotion and loss when first arriving, now she has found her own. She has everything working for her. She has a lucrative career as an artist for Hiyama Studios, an studio apartment that was all her own and something she'd never had in Thailand with all her siblings, and there was no shortage of gorgeous biking and hiking trails in Seattle. She has it all, yet something was missing and she soon discovers it in the form of a strangely introverted woman who catches her fancy by complete happenstance. Fiona, contrite over her ethics in taking Kanda as a client when she so blatantly flirts with her regularly, must navigate this newly burgeoning sensation before Kanda leaves her world forever in the form of one dilemma neither anticipated even more than falling for one another.

This narrative is a richly woven tale of identity, survival, and the clash of universal forces that transcend humanity. The protagonist, Ivan, embarks on a harrowing journey of self-discovery and cosmic conflict as he becomes entangled in an interstellar struggle between two opposing entities: the Zhozoz, guided by the supreme consciousness of Tinmon, and Lounix, a rogue force seeking domination at any cost. The story explores themes of free will, morality, and the fragile balance between chaos and harmony. Ivan's journey takes him from a battle to save his family and humanity, through the depths of simulated dimensions, and into the mysteries of collective consciousness and alien symbiosis. Along the way, he learns to navigate between bodies, unlocks ancient truths about universal power dynamics, and discovers his own pivotal role in shaping the future of civilizations. As Ivan grapples with his loyalty, humanity, and the growing realization of his place in this cosmic battle, the line between reality and illusion begins to blur. The narrative delves into philosophical questions about identity, the nature of reality, and the cost of achieving ultimate harmony or destruction. Ultimately, "The Choice" is a thought-provoking exploration of human resilience, the allure of power, and the enduring hope for freedom against insurmountable odds. It's a gripping tale where personal stakes collide with universal destiny, leaving the reader questioning the very fabric of existence.Complete
