"It Was All a Lie"
There's a fine line between love and a lie.
But not everyone knows how to see it.
Some people mistake kindness for weakness,
and honesty for naivety.
To them, every heart is a game board,
every feeling, just a move to win.
They believe what's said on the lips must be true in the soul.
But not all smiles are honest,
and not all promises are meant to stay.
This story is about that confusion -
when love feels real,
but turns out to be scripted.
When someone walks into your life like a sunrise,
only to vanish like smoke.
It's not about one person.
It's about all those who trusted too easily,
who believed too deeply,
who gave their heart...
only to find out they were part of a dare,
a challenge,
a cruel test.
Because the most dangerous kind of lie...
is the one that feels like love.

Heirs Of Aurous
At the most prestigious school on earth, justice doesn't come from the principal's office. It comes from someone wearing a mask. Aureus International doesn't educate students, it ranks them, sorting children into tiers by blood and bank balance until the line between privilege and punishment starts to blur. Money buys silence here. Corruption wears a uniform. And when the system protects the wrong people one too many times, someone starts making them pay for it. They call this someone W. No face. No pattern anyone can prove. Just security footage that loops at the same hour, every time, and a string of golden reputations left in ruins by morning. Eight students walk these halls with more to hide than the rest of the school combined: old debts, older secrets, and a silence none of them are willing to break first. Whether they're hunting W, hiding from W, or something far messier than either, none of them are saying. They say the truth always comes to light, but at Aureus, even light has learned to keep secrets. ______________________________________ Side note: 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 1 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐞𝐢𝐫𝐬 𝐎𝐟 𝐀𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐃𝐮𝐞𝐭 Ib: School 2017 Release days: Whenever I get time. ⚠️ The image used in the cover is not mine. ⚠️
What If I Was Nothing?
Hannah and Ryan once believed love meant being everything to each other. But somewhere between unanswered calls, quiet dinners, and promises that became too heavy to carry, their relationship began to change. Ryan has spent years trying to protect Hannah from every fear, every mistake, and every moment of pain. Hannah has spent just as long pretending she is fine so he will stop trying to save her. They still love each other, but love has become tangled with guilt, dependence, and the fear of who they might be apart. When one broken promise brings everything they have avoided to the surface, they are forced to confront the question neither of them is ready to answer: What if losing the person you love does not make you nothing? A bittersweet story about love, identity, letting go, and learning that sometimes two people must fall apart before they can become whole.Complete

The snow never forgets. That's the first thing they learned when they found her- half-dead, half-shadow, and entirely silent. She wore a scar like a warning. She had no name... or too many. And her eyes? Storm-grey. Unbothered. Unblinking. Unforgiving. They chained her. Whipped her. Tried to break her open like a confession. She smiled instead. They said she was a terrorist. A spy. A ghost. No one knew the truth. But when word spread that he was coming- The Director. The Ghost Hunter. Even the storm outside quieted. Because some stories aren't just secrets. They're scars with a heartbeat. And this one? It started with a girl on her knees... and ends when they both stop breathing.Complete
