"They say straight lines lead to certainty. But what if the most beautiful destinations lie where paths curve and twist? Sometimes, we find ourselves only when we let our lives bend."
 
In a world of mafia clans where loyalty is carved in blood, deviation from the fixed path is deadly. Thyme Dominique Dalumpines, heir to the Red Phoenix syndicate, has his future mapped out-until a violent ambush forces him to flee to Negros Oriental. There, Lucien Gyles Rodriguez, whose life is as steady as sugarcane fields, lies to save him, saying "Sometimes the best way to stay safe is to step off the path everyone expects you to take."
 
When threats follow them to Manila, Thyme brings Lucien to his family's dangerous, opulent mansion. Soon, Thyme's cousin Zachary-who lives by the same code of straight paths-is also drawn to Lucien's gentle strength, admitting "I've walked straight and narrow my whole life, but you make me wonder what I've been missing."
 
With rivals closing in and loyalties strained, all three must choose: stick to the safe, fixed course... or follow twisted roads where love and danger await.
 
"Straight lines may be safe, but they never lead to miracles. Let your path bend-you never know who you'll meet along the way."
 
Are you ready to see where the bend will take them?Seluruh Hak Cipta Dilindungi Undang-Undang

Life is a roller coaster oleh arabella_tomlinson

They say life is like a roller coaster, you have your ups, your downs, twist and turns. Everything that could be good always starts at the bottom of the coaster until it moves, as it moves up, your life changes, until you reach the top. The top of the ride is where everything changes. The more it goes down your life changes, it could be for the better or for the worse, and it is up to you to decide how it changes. The moment it comes to a twist, your life once again changes, you have more challenges to face, more heart ache, more pain, and more loss until it turns at the last minute, you meet new people, you make new friends and then you meet the one person that will help you. Life is not simple, itâ€™s complex and hard, but if you try hard enough to make the right decisions your life will be the way you want it to be but if you chose the wrong ones, everything that had wished for might just slip through your fingers to never be found again. Life for Kyle was just that. A roller coaster full of mistakes and regrets which made him lose the one person that truly mattered to him. He lost everything because of one night of drinking with friends. His mistake was to let the love of his life walk out the front door to maybe never see him again, but as the saying goes, if you love someone, let them free, if they return to you it was yours to begin with and if not, it was never yours so thatâ€™s what he did. He let go of the boy with cerulean eyes go and wishes that heâ€™d one day come back to him.

Homeland oleh CoryDoctorow

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER -- In Cory Doctorow’s wildly successful Little Brother, young Marcus Yallow was arbitrarily detained and brutalized by the government in the wake of a terrorist attack on San Francisco—an experience that led him to become a leader of the whole movement of technologically clued-in teenagers, fighting back against the tyrannical security state. A few years later, California's economy collapses, but Marcus’s hacktivist past lands him a job as webmaster for a crusading politician who promises reform. Soon his former nemesis Masha emerges from the political underground to gift him with a thumbdrive containing a Wikileaks-style cable-dump of hard evidence of corporate and governmental perfidy. It’s incendiary stuff—and if Masha goes missing, Marcus is supposed to release it to the world. Then Marcus sees Masha being kidnapped by the same government agents who detained and tortured Marcus years earlier. Marcus can leak the archive Masha gave him—but he can’t admit to being the leaker, because that will cost his employer the election. He’s surrounded by friends who remember what he did a few years ago and regard him as a hacker hero. He can’t even attend a demonstration without being dragged onstage and handed a mike. He’s not at all sure that just dumping the archive onto the Internet, before he’s gone through its millions of words, is the right thing to do. Meanwhile, people are beginning to shadow him, people who look like they’re used to inflicting pain until they get the answers they want. Fast-moving, passionate, and as current as next week, Homeland is every bit the equal of Little Brother—a paean to activism, to courage, to the drive to make the world a better place.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Book 1 GHOST Complete Book 2 TROJAN Ongoing --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Excerpt I got a peace offering. And Ice cream. The message popped up again. His Bhaiyu was making it hard to ignore. Darwaza khol, yaar. Mogambo uth jayenge. Ansh glared at the French windows. Even desperate his Bhaiyu would not quit the name calling. Shall I leave? Ansh did not respond. Okay! Leaving the ice-cream outside. Take it before it melts. Ansh did not respond, but his heart skipped a beat. He wanted to meet his Bhaiyu. He was even a little desperate, but he did not wish to give in so soon. So, he counted until 100 and then slowly made his way outside. Iris hopped down from the bed and followed behind him. Ansh opened the doors with a big heart only to find a basket filled with dumb yellow smile squishes and a big tub of ice-cream in between. A few CD's were tucked into the basket almost as an afterthought. The game CD's that Ansh wanted. Ansh glared at the basket. "Do minute nahi rukh saktey they kya?" He muttered under his breath. "You made me wait 17 minutes, kidoo" A voice whispered in his ears. Ansh almost screamed but Nirbhay's palm closed around his mouth before any sound could slip. Ansh's heart thudded in his chest. His Bahiyu had almost given him a heart attack. Nirabhay grabbed the basket and slipped inside with Ansh, and shut the door behind him.

our new wilderness oleh twosetmeridian

Brett used to smell like rosin, varnished wood, warm cotton in the morning and bubble tea in the late afternoon. A homely scent; an omega's scent. Now, he just smelled like blood. (In which the author is forced to write a fic but ends up liking it anyway, sucker that she is.)

My New Brother oleh zayner

So I got a new brother. Yeah, I wasn't happy but now I'm stuck with him. More news? He's living with me, there's a window that connects our rooms, and he is my age! Exactly my age. But the benefit? He is somewhat nice. How? Flowers. Something for he didn't do, he still said sorry. Devon. Devon was my crush of all time. I could hardly talk to him, and he brought Devon closer into my life. Life Saving. The boy I hardly knew, saved my life. And lets just say so much more, which I can't even describe. I definitely learned my lesson.

Enchanted Captivation [InquisitorMaster AU fanfiction] oleh LesbiansMarie

[COVER ART IS MINE.] Watching another one of them being burned on a cross once more. Secretive sorrow, filled Alex's, Charli's, and, Jade's hearts, witches such as their own were being burned for the entire town to watch and cheer. Magic kept in the woods, away from all forms of human life, until one day the kingdom discovered the witch's hideout, and in shock, Alex, Charli, and, Jade played the victim to save their lives as the other witches were imprisoned. The three girls then stayed in the palace for a while, "rescued" by twin princes, Zach and Drake, and Alex and Jade started to fall for them, but with a high risk. If they're found out, they'll be executed, if they hide their lives will end in a false narrative, and if they pursue the twins, they will have to hide who they are forever... [Note: I came up with the witch idea before Alex posted her first "baby witch" video. This used to be Zalex and Drade but considering the drama, those ships are no longer going to be written, not in a good light at least.]
