Nyuma Wakana was born into the Wayo-Sanji Tribe, a community deeply rooted in ancient Hoodoo traditions and servitude to Papa Legba, the Keeper of the Crossroads. In her world, the crossroads are more than a place where paths meet-they are sacred spaces where life-changing decisions are made, where the boundaries between the physical and spiritual realms blur.
When Nyuma begins to hear the voice of Papa Legba, something no one in her tribe has experienced before, she is thrown into a web of uncertainty and fear. His message is clear: She is on the wrong path. With her wedding to Imari Daichi-her charismatic, seemingly perfect husband-to-be-fast approaching, Nyuma is forced to confront the unsettling truth about her future. Is her destiny truly entwined with Imari, or has she been blinded by love and control?
Torn between family expectations, her own desires, and the whispers of a powerful spirit, Nyuma must navigate the spiritual crossroads of her life. With each step, she discovers that not all paths lead to harmony-and that sometimes, the only way forward is to embrace the unknown.
In a journey that intertwines love, magic, and ancient wisdom, Nyuma will have to trust her instincts and the guidance of Papa Legba if she is to find her true path... before it's too late.

Statera: The Balance of Yin and Yang
In a world where select few can manipulate Yin and Yang energy, equilibrium has been maintained by fair treatment to users of both sides. In recent years, however, this delicate balance has been threatened by extreme beliefs. Those who have the power to tip the scales are fueling flames of suspicion and turning man against each other. The world is disintegrating into ruins; droughts, floods, famine, corruption and distrust among Yin and Yang Congregants threaten to upend life as it is. Aletheia is just a girl from a normal family in Minato. Her family just well off enough to send her to her dream in life: the Congregate. But she is not a Supplicant and her family has no ties within the Communion. So she enters the Congregate almost a blank slate, only armed with what she read in her hometown, which wasn't much. She has no idea what is coming for her as her life up to that point had been quite normal, specked with the typical existential crisis many of you would know well. What was the meaning of life? What was she here to do? When Aletheia meets Elora at the Congregate - oh beautiful, talented Elora - Aletheia realises that she does not have a Glorious Purpose. No, she thinks she has found her meaning in Elora. For reasons she cannot comprehend, Aletheia believes Elora is the one who will wrestle the world back into balance, and she is merely along for the ride. She doesn't realise her companionship to a Elora's journey is more important than she knows. Follow her as she navigates through self-doubt, uncertainty, love, loyalty and friendship, searching and grasping at her meaning while she fights alongside Elora, whose shoulders carry the burden of saving the world. ~~~ Story now complete: Updates weekly!Complete
Love Unexpectedly
I was 17 when I ask him to take my virginity but he explicitly said no. Now, eight years later I need to ask him the same humiliating question again. Hopefully, this time he won't spit his drink in my face. ******************************************* "Do you think you're ready to be fucked, Cassandra?" Why do I find him so hot when he said those crude words? I'm not sure if I'll be scared or be turned on. I stumble on the couch trying to move away from him because he's already too close. His breathing is too fast and I can hear his heart beating so loudly or is it mine? He crouched down to my eye level and holds both my arms on the side to steady me then whispered huskily in my ear. "I have to warn you though, I can be rough Cassandra. I can fuck your brains out that you'll forget your own name. Then he looks at me directly in the eyes and I just notice how dark his eyes now. Unfortunately, love, I don't think your little body can handle me." -Please don't forget to vote-Complete
