Leena Ayari has spent years hiding behind silence - after her fiancé shattered her self-worth and taught her that love hurts more than it heals. Now in her final year at Syveria Crest Academy, she wants nothing more than to graduate quietly and stay invisible. Then there's Professor Damon Vashiro - sharp, composed, and distant. His lectures command attention, his eyes give nothing away. But behind the walls he's built lies a past he's never shared - one that left him just as wary of love as Leena.

She walks away from the noise, the pressure, and the man who molded her into someone she no longer recognizes. Her destination?

And eventually... a boy whose past is locked behind unspoken truths. Maaya doesn't know it yet, but beneath the normal days and quiet evenings, the town hides something deeper. Something that will pull her into a story of love, fear, and secrets that whisper through the corners of 7th Street.

She didn't jump because she wanted to die. She jumped because she had run out of ways to stay without disappearing. In the stillness that follows, she finds herself somewhere unexpected - a space between breath and memory, between collapse and return. A hospital ward divided by thin blue curtains. A place where sound travels, where presence is felt before it's seen, where two lives pause on the edge of something unfinished. Between Curtains is a quiet, emotionally precise novel about money, care, control, and the slow erosion that happens when endurance is mistaken for strength. It traces the invisible deals women make - with partners, with systems, with themselves - and the cost of being "fine" for too long. Told through shifting inner worlds, memory, and movement, this is not a story about rescue or reinvention. It's about what happens when survival is no longer enough. When staying alive becomes a choice, not just a matter of survival. When agency returns, not dramatically, but through attention, practice, and presence. For readers drawn to emotionally layered fiction, reflective pacing, and stories that sit in the quiet spaces - the ones that don't shout, but stay with you. This is a story about the moment before the step. About what it means to pause. About what remains - and what becomes possible - between curtains.

What do you hold on to when the world you trust begins to fall apart? Magic is fading, monsters are awakening and the city of Martella is on the brink of disaster. Three unlikely allies, a mage left dying after a betrayal he never saw coming, a spy living with the fallout of a failed mission and a seer who who is giving up on his gift, must face a city of secrets, betrayals and ancient powers. As they confront urban legends, dangerous tunnels and the traumas that shaped them, they learn that survival asks for more than magic. It calls for hope and the courage to face what is hidden within themselves. Oh, and they only have a week to save everyone.

A generation after the world learned to listen, it begins to fall silent again. Taren Mekh has spent his life tracing the living heartbeat of the earth - the Pattern - the sentient network that once united humanity through shared empathy. But when the Resonant Spires across the world suddenly go mute, only Taren hears the faint counter-tone: a shadow frequency that no one else can detect. Sent by the Listening Guild to investigate, Taren and his small team - the seasoned captain Seren Vale, the restless engineer Aron Kael, and others drawn by curiosity or faith - set out across a landscape still learning how to be alive. From deserts of singing glass to cities built on living music, they follow the trail of silence to the edge of the known world, where the Pattern's voice disappears entirely. What they uncover beneath the sands of Eversong is not absence, but memory. The world's consciousness has begun to withdraw - hiding parts of itself that remember fear, jealousy, and longing. And from those hidden depths, something else is awakening: the Archivist, a being born from everything the Pattern tried to forget. As empathy collapses into fragmentation, Taren faces a deeper crisis - the pull between his mother Lira Mekh, who leads a sect preaching emotional independence from the Pattern, and the legacy of his ancestor Anaya, whose final map once taught the world to listen. Torn between connection and solitude, faith and autonomy, Taren must decide whether silence is decay - or evolution. To heal the world, he may have to unmap it entirely.
