Beneath the Law
Justice isn't always blind - sometimes, it's watching from the shadows.
Rin Takanashi was just seventeen when he witnessed a politician's brutal murder - a secret buried beneath lies and silence. Now 22, quiet and scarred, he's chasing justice through the law.
Kaito Morozumi, 24, is a final-year law student with a dangerous reputation and a dark past tied to the same crime. Cold, brilliant, and untouchable - but haunted by secrets that could destroy them both.
Thrown together in a legal clinic, Rin and Kaito clash, clash, and clash again - until the lines between enemies and allies blur... and something deeper takes root.
In a world where the law can be twisted, and trust is a luxury neither can afford, how far will they go for truth? And how much will they risk for each other?
Justice. Secrets. Betrayal. Love born in the shadows.
Will they expose the truth... or be consumed by it?

Being in the Wrong Reality
Kai Renner is a quiet, introspective 17-year-old living in modern-day Tokyo. He's always felt disconnected from the world around him-people are too loud, too distracted, too shallow. A brilliant mind hidden behind apathetic eyes, Kai spends most of his time alone, obsessed with puzzles, crime shows, and psychological thrillers. His favorite is Death Note, not just because of its story, but because of one character-L. To Kai, L isn't just a fictional detective-he's the only one who feels real. They share the same quirks: hunched posture, sweet tooth, insomnia, and a deep mistrust of others. Over time, Kai's admiration turns into something deeper, something strange. He begins seeing reflections of L everywhere-mirrors, puddles, even his dreams. One night, after watching Death Note for the hundredth time, Kai whispers, "I wish I was in your world." The screen flickers. A whisper echoes back. "Maybe you already are." From that night on, reality begins to bend. Time feels wrong. His reflection isn't quite his. People forget his name. The line between fiction and truth blurs. What if Kai isn't imagining things? What if the world he thought was real... never was? What if he was the one written into someone else's story?Complete
The Last of ember's
When love freezes, can the heart still burn ? Dedication: To the muses that whispered in my ears. Prologue The city's darkness was palpable, a living entity that pulsed with secrets and lies. The skyscrapers stood like sentinels, their windows glowing with an otherworldly light. In this concrete jungle, two figures moved undetected, their paths converging like the threads of a complex tapestry. Axel Vaughn, a ruthless and cunning CEO of Vaughn Security, and Zephryine Everett, a brilliant and fearless criminal lawyer, were about to collide in a dance of power and deception. The air was heavy with anticipation, the shadows trembling with the promise of secrets yet to be revealed. The city held its breath, waiting for the spark that would ignite the flames of chaos and destruction. And then, everything went black. ● In the depths of darkness, where shadows writhe like living things, there exists a truth so profound, it can only be whispered in the silence of the night. A spark remains, a flicker of what once was. A dying ember, warm to the touch, yet cold as the grave. And in this desolate landscape, a heart beats, fueled by the very flames that consume it. Will the fire that once warmed their souls ultimately be their demise? Or will they find a way to rise from their ashes, their hearts forged in darkness, their spirits unbroken?

Blood Meridian
They were never supposed to survive each other. Rin Rivas is the underworld's problem no one wants to solve - a sharp grin, a faster gun, and a hunger for chaos that leaves blood on every floor he walks across. Luca Mercer is the cartel's polished enforcer - perfect suit, perfect lies, and hands that only look clean when they're holding your heart still enough to stop it. When a job turns sideways and betrayal rots their chains of command, Rin and Luca find themselves bound together by secrets that could dismantle the city's rotten kings - or bury them both where no one will ever find the bodies. They hate each other more than they trust the city that owns them. But every fistfight turns into something filthy against a concrete wall. Every whispered threat turns into teeth scraping over bruises they swear they'll never admit they like. Every plan to run turns into another reason to stay. In a world that chews up loyalty and spits out corpses, love isn't a rescue. It's a weapon. And Rin and Luca know exactly how to use it on each other - over and over, until one of them finally pulls the trigger. Dirty, violent, and intoxicatingly slow-burn - Blood Meridian drags two broken men through bullets, blood, and the kind of hate that always tastes like a promise when it's gasped into someone's mouth at midnight. The city wants them dead. They want each other more.Complete

The Unexpected
Tanya never believed in fate until the night her world was shattered by blood and betrayal. A simple act of kindness pulled her into Darryl's path - a man with haunting eyes, a hidden past, and scars that told a story darker than midnight. What began as a spark of attraction soon spiraled into something far more dangerous: a love born in chaos, tested by lies, and hunted by enemies who would kill to keep the truth buried. He saved her life once. She exposed his secret twice. Now, both are trapped in a web of deceit that neither of them wove - yet both must escape. Darryl is not the man he claims to be. Beneath the calm charm lies a criminal past tied to a powerful syndicate that has marked him for death. But Tanya is no ordinary woman either. Her brother's mysterious disappearance years ago is connected to the same people Darryl once worked for. As bullets fly and bodies fall, Tanya is forced to choose between the man she loves and the justice she swore to find. Every step closer to the truth uncovers another lie, another betrayal, and another reason to run. When love and danger collide, loyalty is tested, trust becomes a weapon, and survival demands more than courage - it demands sacrifice. In the shadows of crime and passion, Tanya and Darryl will discover that destiny is not written in stars, but in blood, secrets, and choices. And when the final truth comes to light, it will shake everything they thought they knew - because what binds them together is more than love or guilt. It is The Unexpected - a story of love that defies logic, danger that never sleeps, and two hearts that refuse to surrender even when the world turns against them.
