Kendall never expected to survive.
After years of battling an eating disorder, self-harm, and the crushing weight of her own mind, Kendall finds herself in a mental health hospital with nothing but broken pieces and silence. The days are sterile and quiet. The nights are heavy. But within the cold walls, something begins to shift - in the form of a kind nurse, a therapist who listens without fixing, and a group of strangers whose scars mirror her own.
As Kendall learns to face her pain rather than erase it, she discovers something she never thought she'd feel again: hope. From writing letters to her younger self to surviving panic attacks in grocery stores, Shadows Into Light follows one girl's journey from numbness to connection, from shame to self-compassion.
Through first steps, small victories, and a love that blooms slowly and gently, Kendall begins to build a life she once believed she didn't deserve - one filled with coffee shop mornings, journaled nights, and the fierce, quiet strength of choosing to stay.
Tender, raw, and ultimately uplifting, Shadows Into Light is a story of survival, recovery, and the power of being seen. For anyone who's ever felt too broken to heal - this is for you.

The Bright Room | 18+
If saving your life caused you more suffering than dying ever could, would you thank the man who did it, or would you kill him? Samantha is brilliant, driven, and running on empty. A visit to her old best friend was supposed to be a reset. Instead, one night tears her life apart and leaves her one breath from death. The man who saves her has his own methods, a cure much worse than the disease. Cleansed with light, stripped of everything, Sam loses herself layer by agonizing layer, and wakes up in the Bright Room as a mystery: to her captor, and to herself. The only thing she's sure she's not is a victim. But reclaiming her life means dealing with a captor whose ruthlessness is matched only by how broken he is; a debt to him she can't balance against the trauma he caused; and a thing waking inside her that may be more dangerous than the infection itself. What develops between them is Beauty and the Beast, followed to its natural conclusion: two beasts, containing each other.Terminé

CLOUD CASCADE
It's the year 398 of the Ninth Era, an age dominated by the Federation's authoritarian control and by the insidious influence of megacorps like Mercator Group. Human-piloted, mass-produced machines known as Frames define the battlefield, surveillance programs monitor your every move, and no one alive remembers what it was like before it got this way. It's in this tightly-wound, bloody ecosystem that four lives collide. The Knife, a mob enforcer with the ability to bend matter, ends up a courier for a piece of tech she's been trained not to ask questions about. Angela, a Frame Pilot Specialist with the Ministry of State Affairs, fights for justice only to find deafening silence. Grey, her teammate, just wants to keep the squad sane. Major Falwin, their superior, investigates a crime scene and finds a Knife-shaped ghost. Nobody has all the pieces to the puzzle-not until Frames drop, guns are pointed, and the nature of reality becomes a question mark. In this new, unrelenting conflict, there won't be any winners, only more devastation.
