Phoenix is a seventeen-year-old ballerina whose striking orange hair and piercing blue eyes are as unforgettable as her story. Since the age of ten, she has dedicated her life to ballet-a dream her mother fought desperately to make real despite crushing financial hardship and an abusive father who never approved.
For seven years, Phoenix has found sanctuary in dance, a refuge from the chaos of her home life. But the shadows of her past still haunt her: the memory of her beloved long-haired Dalmatian, Duchess, who died in a tragic car accident two years after Phoenix began dancing, and the ongoing violence that permeates her family.
Now, as Phoenix stands on the cusp of adulthood, something sinister has taken notice of her talent. When her new instructor offers her an exclusive audition opportunity with the mysterious Blackwood Theatre Company, Phoenix's carefully constructed world begins to unravel. Strange figures watch her from the shadows. Nightmares plague her sleep. And the dance world she once trusted reveals itself to be far darker than she ever imagined.
As Phoenix investigates the truth behind Blackwood, she discovers a terrifying conspiracy that preys on talented young dancers-and she may be their next victim. Caught between the horrors closing in around her and an unexpected romance that offers her a glimpse of hope, Phoenix must fight not just for her dreams, but for her very survival.
In a world where grace meets horror and passion collides with terror, Phoenix will learn that sometimes the greatest leaps we take are the ones that save our lives.
Take the First Leap is a chilling tale of determination, survival, and the price of pursuing your dreams when darkness comes calling. With heart-pounding action, spine-tingling horror, and a touch of romance, this is the story of a girl who refused to let anyone-living or dead-steal her chance to dance. will she fall in love? stay tuned to find out!All Rights Reserved

كسرة ظهر by nisan_ayhab

تحتُّ الركام أصواتٌ انقطع أنينها ودقاتٌ توقف نبضها فرحةً لم تكتمل وأحلامٌ أجهضت قبل المخاض تحتُ الركام قصصٌ لم تكتب لها النهاية وحكاياتٌ رحل من كان يرويها ألعابٌ لطخت بدماء الأطفال تحتُ الركام أسماءٌ تساقطت من السجلّ المدني مثل تساقط الأوراق من الأشجار فأصبحت في سماء النسيان تحتٌ الركام وجوهٌ تغيرت ملامحها فأنكرها الزمان والمكان فشيعت أجسادهم لمقابرٍ في الجنان تحت الركام ارتجف الأطفال خوفًا فغادروا الحياة ولم يجدوا الأمان وصايا خُطت بحبرٍ من الخذلان وأمنياتٌ غادرت عالم الخيال تحت الركام حيث يشهد الظلم والقهر

{Previously known as Kainaat} | Completed on Scrollstack | In a web of lies, even the truth can strangle you. Trinity Academy is more than just a school-it's a kingdom, ruled by the rich, the powerful, and the ruthless. Beneath its golden halls, secrets fester, scandals thrive, and betrayals are just another form of currency. The students? Beautiful, untouchable, and drowning in their own sins. Trinity isn't just their playground-it's their sanctuary, a place where even the darkest truths are carefully concealed under layers of gold and glitter. Kainaat Sharma, a scholarship student, walks in, with no intention of playing their games. But the elites don't take kindly to outsiders, especially ones who refuse to bow. She's caught in their world, tangled in their scandals, and dragged into a storm she never saw coming. And in Trinity, you either learn to play the game or get buried beneath it.

Reverie by tokyosmain

They were her sentinels, her saviors, the reason that she refuses to let her past consume her. 𝐆𝐈𝐔𝐋𝐈𝐀 𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐎, a young girl who's never known stability. Raised by a reckless, unstable mother, she spent her childhood caught between drug runs and police raids, ruining her right for a normal childhood. One night when her mother goes missing, Giulia's whole life changes... again. Will being under the guardianship of her new older brothers give her a chance at normalcy in her life or will they cause even more mess than before? Healing isn't easy and trust doesn't come free. ☆ ☆ ☆ As I lied there in the hospital bed with a pounding headache, practically suffocating me while barely conscious, I heard that familiar, raspy, deep, sleep deprived voice that I've recently come to find comfort in. "Nessuno oserà toccarti di nuovo senza perdere le mani, amore," they whispered. (No one will dare touch you again without losing their hands, love.) I felt two hands hold my face with a soft kiss on my forehead. Their rough and large hands a contrast to their gentleness. The comforter over me shuffled as the familiar person brought them up to my chin and tucked me in. "Riposati ora sei al sicuro, bambina," they murmured, stroking my hair. Before I knew it, simply the presence of them reassured me as I felt myself drift off again into a deep sleep. (Rest now, you're safe, baby). ☆ ☆ ☆ 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄 (noun): a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream.

جيتيني وأنا تايه وسط موج الحنين by na_jm96

ليست كل الحكايات تبدأ بابتسامة .. بعضها يولد من صمتٍ طويل من نظرة لم تُفهم أو من قرار صغير كان كافيًا ليقلب كل شي هنا لا تبحث عن أبطال خارقين ولا عن نهايات مثالية هنا ستجد القلوب كما هي ضعيفة عنيدة محطّمة لكنها تقاوم هذه الرواية ليست مجرد قصة بل مرآة وقد ترى نفسك بين السطور دون أن تنتبه مرحبًا بك في عالمٍ لا يشبه أحدًا لكنّه قد يشبهك
