    Eeveelutions. Horrible creatures. The worst of them all. Prideful, self-absorbed, narcissistic. They garner the attention of the masses and take all the love that should've been given to other species. That's how the Pokemon world sees them. That's how everyone sees them. Tribi is an Eevee, the daughter of another Eevee, Trial. Trial is the leader of a secret laboratory that calls upon the scientific expertise of the 8 other Eeveelutions on a quest to prove their worth in the world before they are erased forever. Being the last 10 of the species, Tribi is pushed to action by her father. She arrives there as a simple intern, being shoved into the grievances of the 8 outstanding, yet fractured Eeveelutions from a world that hated each one of them. There is one mysterious thing that the lab holds securely to itself. Something darker is looming through the halls of the lab, and everyone knows it. Except Tribi. Yet the days pass and the moments wane into the dusk, and even the Volbeat and Illumise grow quiet. Something lurks. It grows. It lives. An episodic novel w/darker themes! (Characters walk how they usually do according to game canon) This story, created in some months worth of time, is going to be a bit of a divergence from my other stories. Ensemble casts, heh, are harder to write, especially if you've written over 20,000 words about their backstories alone.

    COPYRIGHT © 2026 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED! How did we go from "My life is empty without you." His voice had once broken for me, soft with desperation. "I'll be better. For you, I'll do anything, I swear." I believed him. Now_ "Get lost. You're a nuisance..." The feelings that lived in him had faded away. Out of all my sins and mistakes, he was my favorite and my worst. We were once students in secondary school, exchanging glances that meant nothing until they meant everything. Then life separated us. I should have taken that as a sign from God but instead, I brought us back at the university and this time, he didn't come back the same. Neither did I. Everyone on campus warned me. Stay away from him. They said his name like it carried consequences. Like it could stain me but warnings sound like jealousy when you're in love. So I stayed. I should have listened. His letters were in my hands. My name written in his handwriting, his voice echoed harshly, the same voice that once traced promises against my skin now reduced to threats on paper. I tore one of the letters open. "It's over." My chest tightened. "Don't test me. I have everything I need to ruin you and I won't hesitate to." And there it was. Pain and Heartbreak. No apology. No explanation. Just a threat. Every word was written with certainty. Like he knew exactly how we would end. Like he had already planned it. He didn't just leave me, he stripped me of my dignity, he turned me into a joke, and a story whispered across campus halls. The girl blinded by love? She's gone, he erased her. And maybe that's his greatest crime. Villains aren't born, they are made. He didn't just break my heart, he studied and used me, then he rebuilt me into something I don't recognize. I will survive this as the one thing he never prepared for... his ending. . . . Highest Ranking🏆 #1 in Campus love story on 04-01-25 #1 in Ethiopia on 12-01-25 #2 in Mistreated on 04-01-25

    At Musubi Academy, Japan's most prestigious high school, only the nation's brightest students are chosen to take part in the academy's renowned Compatibility Program-a system designed to pair two students together, believing that "Destiny starts with an encounter." Hayato Takumi has spent years hiding behind plain glasses and an intentionally forgettable appearance, earning the title of the academy's "ugly" outcast. Ignored and judged by those around him, he accepts life on the fringes, believing it's easier to remain invisible than to be noticed. His fate changes when the Compatibility Program pairs him with Aoi Mizuno, the academy's most admired student. Beautiful, wealthy, and followed by millions, Aoi initially sees Hayato no differently than everyone else-until he removes his glasses in front of her. In that moment, the image she had of him shatters, and what begins as an unlikely partnership slowly transforms into something neither of them expected. As their lives become increasingly intertwined, Hayato and Aoi begin to uncover the hidden sides of one another while challenging an academy that judges people by appearances. What started as a pairing decided by the school soon becomes a journey that blurs the line between coincidence and destiny, proving that sometimes a single encounter is all it takes to change two lives forever.

    In the wake of her father's death, Brenda Blackstone, heir to a vast and cold empire, finds herself not just grieving, but being actively shaped into a pawn in a game of corporate and familial control. The public face is one of seamless transition, but beneath the veneer of respectability, a sinister architecture is being built around her life. Her world is populated by men who see her not as a person, but as a strategic asset to be acquired. There is her brother, Henry, who orchestrates her life with the cold precision of a CEO managing assets; her fiancé, Felix, a polished predator whose affection is a calculated merger; and most disturbingly, her uncle Charles, a man whose grief for his dying wife masks a deep, possessive obsession with his niece. Into this suffocating ecosystem of control walks a stranger, Paul Levi Wellington. He is an anomaly-uninvited and seemingly unknowable, yet he sees the brilliant, trapped woman beneath the heiress. His presence is a spark in a room designed to be fireproof. He speaks not of comfort or acquisition, but of recognition, offering Brenda a dangerous glimpse of a self she has been conditioned to suppress. Guided by the cryptic legacy of her grandmother-a mysterious pouch of dimes and ashes-Brenda begins to see the invisible threads of manipulation binding her. The story becomes a tense, psychological chess match, where every conversation is a gambit and every alliance a potential trap. Brenda must navigate this treacherous landscape, deciphering the meaning behind her grandmother's talisman and the stranger's unnerving insight, to dismantle the gilded cage being built around her before the door locks shut forever. It is a battle not for a company, but for her very soul.

    In a town famed for its unshakable honesty and moral pride, the citizens of Hadleyburg have long believed themselves beyond temptation. Their reputation for incorruptibility is carefully guarded, and each resident takes pride in the certainty that their virtue can never be questioned. But when a mysterious stranger arrives with a fortune and a seemingly simple test of integrity, the town's steadfast values are quietly challenged. What follows is not a sudden collapse but a slow unraveling. Desire and ambition awaken beneath the polished surface, and even the most respected townspeople begin to weigh honesty against opportunity. Pride and greed combine in subtle ways, revealing how easily moral certainty can crack when personal gain enters the equation. This Mark Twain story is a sharp reflection on human nature. It asks a timeless question: are we honest because we are principled, or simply because the right temptation has never been placed before us? Twain's narrative exposes the fragile line between virtue and self-interest, leaving readers to wonder what they themselves would do when tested. 📘 paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GPJZFS58
