Nocturne City doesn't care if you break.

It just wants to see how far you'll bend.

Syatara knows how to keep her scars hidden. She blends in, pays her dues, and survives. But when a brutal encounter forces her into the path of a stranger with haunted eyes and a thousand secrets, the threads holding her life together begin to unravel.

Something is wrong with her blood.

Something ancient. Dangerous.

And someone wants it badly enough to burn the city down.

As her world begins to tangle, Sye is dragged into a game she never agreed to play; one that twists love into leverage and turns survival into sacrifice. The shadows around her are moving. Watching. Waiting.

And the man with the broken soul might be the only one who can help her piece hers back together.

If she can trust him.
If she can trust herself.

39 parts Complete Mature
A talented boy from the roughest part of town earns a scholarship to a prestigious, predominantly white high school, where he's thrust into a world of privilege, pressure, and cultural clashes. Paired with the no-nonsense "boogie" black girl for a school project, he's initially put off by her sharp wit and unapologetic confidence. But as they work together, he discovers there's more to her than meets the eye-her passion for life, fierce independence, and determination to break free from expectations even when her adoptive parents are morbidly controlling and mentally abusive. Over time, their unlikely bond blossoms into an undeniable romance, and with her by his side, he finds the strength to confront the challenges of balancing two worlds, all while striving to fulfill his basketball dreams. But it's not just his game that gets a makeover-his perspective on life, love, and self-worth is completely transformed.

The Drowned CureπŸŒŠπŸŒ€ by RiaXytopher
41 parts Complete Mature
In a drowned world where emotions are outlawed and love is punishable by death, Nereya-a cold, calculated rebel nurse-survives by suppressing every trace of feeling. Raised in the sunken ruins of Lys, she runs an illegal clinic beneath the surface, smuggling forbidden "emotion serums" to those desperate to feel anything at all. But when Cassian, a government enforcer with secrets of his own, is sent to monitor her, cracks begin to form in Nereya's carefully controlled life. He's calm. Deadly. And uncomfortably human. Worse-he makes her feel. When her buried powers awaken during a failed execution, the city turns on her. The regime brands her as a sea-born - a child of the ancient drowned gods. Now hunted, Nereya must choose: trust the enemy who defies his own orders to protect her... or make a deal with a dark sea god who promises vengeance, power, and survival - at the cost of her soul. But there's one rule she cannot break: If she falls in love... the sea will claim them both.

She hears thoughts. He thinks in static. And somewhere in between, an ancient voice is waking up. Seventeen-year-old Nyra has spent most of her life being told she's imagining things- the whispers in her head, the flashes of memory that aren't hers, the voices that don't stop when the world goes quiet. But when a strange boy named Rivan Vale enters her therapy room-with a smear of blood on his collar and thoughts loud enough to burn-Nyra realizes she isn't hallucinating. She's connected. To something old. To someone dangerous. To a mind that once shattered the world from the inside out. As their connection deepens, Nyra is pulled into a world of underground experiments, vanished patients, and a name erased from every file: > Patient Echo. They say she vanished in fire. They say her mind was too dangerous to contain. They say she's gone. But Nyra knows better. Because Echo isn't gone. She's just been waiting. And now, she wants out.

𝐼𝑑'𝑠 𝑗𝑒𝑠𝑑 π‘šπ‘œπ‘Ÿπ‘’ π‘‘π‘’π‘Žπ‘‘β„Ž." The year is 398 of the Ninth Era (or more accurately, 7700 AD). The Twenty Years War has ended, giving rise to a new age of mass surveillance, paranoia, and doubt. Angela, a Frame pilot fighting her way through her trauma, slowly becomes disillusioned with the authoritarian system in which she exists. The Knife, a mob fixer with the ability to bend states of matter, tries to crawl out from under what she's done only to get sucked right back in. Grey, a goofy and loyal friend with modest ambitions, is driven to act and save Angela, only to find himself embroiled in a deadly conflict he doesn't understand. And finally, Davis, an esteemed investigator, learns that the ideals he fought for were never real in the first place. As shadowy players make their move, these four lives collide violently. Frames drop, guns are drawn - and there won't be a winner, only more devastation. At the center of it all lies the Vessel, a reality-warping implant with unimaginable destructive capability. The Federation will kill without hesitation to get it back - and Angela just merged with it.
The myth of Γ‰quili. I will find you in every life - series. by EveElena
6 parts Ongoing Mature
She was never meant to awaken... and he was never meant to care. Sarina has spent her life hiding a power that shouldn't exist-one that even the ancient fairies fear. When a violent surge exposes her abilities, she is sent to train under Ariel, a cold, exiled warrior whose own past is buried in betrayal and silence. He is everything she despises: strict, unreadable, merciless in his methods. She is everything he didn't expect: stubborn, fragile... and terrifyingly powerful. Their world is fractured between elemental bloodlines, sacred myths, and a forbidden book lost to history. Kingdoms are watching. Priests are hunting. Something old is waking beneath the surface-and Sarina might be the key to saving or shattering everything. But power comes with pain. Training feels like war. And the most dangerous thing in the temple isn't the magic. It's the way he looks at her when her power flickers. It's the way her heartbeat changes when he steps closer. In a world where loyalty is deadly and emotions are a weakness, two broken souls are forced together by fate... or something far more dangerous. Magic. Tension. Slow-burn obsession. This is not a love story. This is how it begins.

Zariah Hart's been quiet since the night she lost everything, and moving to The Palisade at Skyview Apartments was supposed to give her a fresh start. No expectations. No questions. Just peace. But peace gets complicated when a man like Omarion Jordan starts showing up in it. He's nothing like she expected. Tatted, quiet, with eyes that read people better than they speak. A mechanic with a past he doesn't explain-and a presence that says more than his mouth does. He doesn't ask about her silence. She doesn't flinch at his reputation. Somehow, that's enough. What starts as simple glances turns into shared space. What feels like comfort turns to something neither of them planned for. But Atlanta doesn't forget what people try to bury. And sometimes, the loudest truth is the one you never say out loud. 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐃: 𝐉𝐔𝐍𝐄 πŸπŸŽπŸπŸ“

ROME He wasn't looking for love. Hell, he barely trusted loyalty. With a past soaked in pain, betrayal, and blood, Roman Carter, better known to the world as ROME, built his name from the ground up. Platinum plaques, sold-out shows, and a reputation that kept both fans and enemies on edge. The industry knew him as a menace, the blogs called him dangerous, but beneath it all was a man still carrying ghosts. And he planned to keep it that way, until her. KALI She wasn't just good at her job, she was the best. A high-profile PR powerhouse known for fixing the unfixable. From red carpet scandals to career-saving rebrands, Kali Raye's name rang bells behind the scenes of Hollywood's biggest stars. Her world was sleek, polished, and calculated. Just how she liked it. Until it all unraveled. The career. The relationship. The control. One by one, everything Kali thought she had a handle on started slipping. And somehow, the one man she was supposed to keep at a distance became the one she couldn't let go. Now, with the industry watching, reputations on the line, and emotions running hotter than ever, Kali has to decide what's worth protecting: the image she built or the man threatening to break down every wall she's ever had. This wasn't supposed to be a love story. Until it was.
