In a game where champions rise, the shadows beneath consume.

Miguel Mendoza has always thrived under pressure. A seventeen-year-old e-sports prodigy, he joins the Dominators, an elite university team renowned for their mastery of Mandirigma, a MOBA game inspired by Filipino mythology. But as Miguel dives deeper into the world of high-stakes matches and dazzling victories, he begins to hear them: voices rising from the game itself.

The whispers belong to more than just forgotten legends. They are the echoes of past champions, players who burned bright before vanishing into obscurity. Rosa, the humming prodigy. Carlos, the undefeated captain. Now their warnings are clear: Mandirigma is not just a game. It's a battleground for the soul, and the price of victory is far greater than Miguel can bear.

Underneath the neon glow of triumph, something ancient and sinister lurks, feeding on the dreams and lives of those who dare to reach for glory. Miguel must confront the spirits haunting him and the traumas they awaken, or risk becoming another name lost to the game's dark legacy.

Beneath the neon lies the truth and it wants him next.All Rights Reserved

Dead, Girl by moshi4u

She ventured to Manila to understand minds, yet her own was already in disarray. Buried tweets, half-deleted group chats, and a past name whispered behind bathroom stalls-she thought she had left it all behind. But when anonymous messages start hitting too close to home, and someone references the mole behind her ear that never made it to social media, the past doesn't just knock. It breaks in. What starts as casual paranoia evolves into a deliberate act of defiance. Skipping classes, adopting a persona she once thought was buried, and scouring confession pages at midnight for evidence that she still exists in someone's narrative. This isn't about a boy, a breakup, or a bad grade. It's about seizing control. And she's weary of pretending to be fine. Now, she's rewriting the narrative-with silver earrings, locked phones, and dirty secrets as armor. This isn't healing. This is hunger. And if the watchers want a show, she'll give them something they won't forget. A psychological coming-of-age tale told in fragments, confessions, and emotional whiplash. Manila isn't ready for her-but she's prepared to burn the whole city down.

Better Without You | Jungkook by KooKie_Doll

"I'm not comfortable sharing the same bed with you," the mafia princess said, her voice tinged with anger. "Why? What's wrong with that?" the mafia leader whispered, his breath hot against her cheek. He moved in closer, his hands resting on her waist. "You know very well what's wrong with it. I despise you, Jungkook. I always have and I always will." she shouted glaring at him. "We're a married couple, it's normal. And you know what else is normal in marriages?" he added, his lips dangerously close to hers. She tried to push him away, but he grabbed her wrists and pulled her closer to him as he attached his fluffy lips to her plump red ones. -- Y/N is forced into a situation she never wanted, and she finds herself struggling to come to terms with the fact that the man she hates is now going to be her husband.

Soulbound Ascension by DenetteAton

"He was born human to forget his power. She loved him too much to let him remember. But now his past is calling, and the world trembles at the return of the Blood King."

With his loyal T1 team by his side, Faker must face vengeful enemies, uncover Valia's true motives, and resist the shadowy Maek spirit that seeks to plunge all realms into chaos. Caught between past and present, duty and desire, Faker stands at a crossroads: Will he embrace his legacy as the Blood King or carve out a new destiny?

He knows that, right now, if he doesn't destroy her, he will live in regret for the rest of his life. So he made his choice. He'll find her. Take her. Break her. Torture her Just like she did to him-only worse. He'll make her scream for mercy, beg for her life, and when there's nothing left in her but fear, he'll leave her to die alone. Forgotten. Just like he once was. genre: mature (like really mature, don't read if you feel nauseous all the time) By the Way, This book is not romance, not dark romance either. This book is clearly based on trauma and pain. So don't click if you're expecting any kind of romance or fluff. Also, every event, character, place etc. in this book is fictional. by: jeonsoodiary (2025)

hiraeth • 18+ by whodrewrue

She hated the spotlight. He lived in it. She was just the quiet girl with perfect grades. He was power wrapped in charm. Rich beyond belief. An heir to a name powerful enough to open any door and shut any mouth. Nobody knew her secrets, hidden behind glass smiles and a shine so bright. Nobody knew his darkness, worn like a crown. That was bowed before. He didn't shine, he burned. Selena didn't know what she was getting into. It was her sister's friend. It was a harmless crush. A fantasy. A look. But then, he looked back. Now he wants her. To claim. To possess. To destroy and rebuild until there's nothing left of her that isn't his. He'd bleed, hurt -- burn down the world to have her. She wanted to belong. He wanted her to belong to him.
