The Price of Innocence by TshepisoTsona4

"Some ghosts don't haunt to scare you. They haunt to remind you what you lost." Thandi's innocence echoed in every memory she shared with her sister. She's accepted the truth - her sister is gone, and nothing can change that. But everything shatters the moment she sees her again. Alive. Smiling. Real. Now caught between the sister she loves and the man she's come to care for, Thandi must make an impossible choice - one that will teach her that even innocence comes with a price. In a world of power, secrets, and ruthless ambition, every choice has consequences. Loyalties will be tested, hearts will be broken, and betrayal lurks in the most unexpected places. Survival is only the beginning; when nothing is as it seems, even the purest hearts cast the darkest shadows.

THE OCEAN'S SECRET by EnigmaExplorers

Beneath the waves lies a truth older than empires. A truth men have killed to protect. And a truth others would kill to possess. Marine archaeologist, Devika Rao, thought she'd made the discovery of a lifetime, until her mentor was murdered and she became the prime suspect. Now hunted by the law and shadowy mercenaries, she's forced into an uneasy alliance with a disgraced intelligence operative haunted by his past and a wisecracking hacker who trusts nothing but his own survival. Together, they're racing to decode an ancient spiral carved into metal and stone, a puzzle scattered across shipwrecks, temples, and ruins, warning of something far more dangerous than treasure. But they're not the only ones searching. Someone with limitless wealth, a private army, and a centuries-old obsession will stop at nothing to claim the ocean's greatest secret. What begins as survival becomes a battle against time, greed, and the ghosts of history itself. And one wrong move could cost millions of lives. A high-stakes thriller where mythology collides with modern conspiracy, and the ocean never gives up its secrets easily.

Paranoia by LetAairaSleep

It started with a text. A number. A job that paid too much for doing nothing at all. All she had to do was live. Be watched. And never ask why. The cameras were set. The money came in. Silence was the only rule. But silence has a sound. And it follows her. Even now. People look familiar, but she's never met them. Her belongings shift when she's asleep. And sometimes... she sees faces in places no one should be. She ended the job. But the watchers never left. And the strangest part? No one remembers the company. Not even her friend who sent the text. There are no answers. Only eyes. Everywhere.

STALKER X STALKER by niczyLov3sy0u

In a city where secrets breathe through every shadow, two souls are bound by obsession - one watching from afar, the other pretending not to notice. What began as curiosity slowly turned into desire, and desire became a dangerous game of control and deception. Each step, each glance, each message hides a motive, and neither knows who's truly the hunter or the prey. But when love blooms in the midst of fear, the line between passion and madness blurs. In Stalker X Stalker, trust is a weapon, love is a trap, and every heartbeat echoes a single truth - sometimes, the one you're watching is already watching you.
