    Jona, a sheltered 30 years old woman, fled too late from her nest for the first time, to the most bustling and glamorous entertainment empire, Stellarvale in Locangel. Humble her job position was, just a utility worker in a film set. Bittersweet her luck was, encountering the hottest, multi-talented singer, model and actor Jack Rothell who she had dedicated her feelings for decades. Yet Roi Brox, a vicious ex-kicboxer champion turned actor, messed her days with his stormy mix of brutality and protection. If all this was not enough to bear, a gothic mystery-fluid figure showed up like a silent shadow between dreams and reality. Before the eyes of such small, powerless person, the veils of success and luxury vanished, revealing a vicious world of endless rivalry, even hunt where no soul was spared. Thank you, Vivi Tschüssikowski, my psychic friend of the Milky Way.

    In a world where the sun has long since abandoned the sky, in the city like Freudenstadt lingers in endless dusk silent, hollow, and forgotten by time itself. Until they return. They are known only in whispers as the Blackwing Masquerade. They do not wander without purpose. They arrive where something has gone wrong. Where stories have fractured. Where something beneath the surface is trying to break through. As the masquerade is drawn deeper into a place that should not exist, past and present begin to intertwine, and truths long buried begin to surface truths that bind them together in ways they can not escape In a story where time fractures, emotions take form, and reality bends like a performance, one question remains: When the curtain falls... who will still be standing? Warning: This story may not be suitable for people who are very sensitive. So if you may not like it. i suggest to stop reading if u don't like it. :) I will be posting weekly every friday now. if you may like to follow me, here is my social medea Instagram: @torasuke_19

However, after digging deeper into the many organizations and cults that are "suddenly" making an appearance all around the globe, the Homo mutabilis might be the last thing we have to worry about...

    Zahra Blight is a scholarship student at an elite school that doesn't want her. At Obsidian Academy, where bloodline is everything, she's mocked, overlooked, and barely scraping by. She has no friends, no money, and no choice but to endure it - until a run-in with a demon changes everything. When Zahra risks her life to protect a fairy from a demon, something ancient stirs inside her. Light explodes from her chest. A weapon blooms in her hand. And suddenly, the girl nobody sees transforms into something no one can ignore. As her powers grow, Zahra is thrust into a war older than the kingdom itself. Demons are returning. The truth has been rewritten. And Zahra may be the only one left who can stop what's coming. Worse still, she's caught the attention of Crown Prince Killian Aidoneus - cold, powerful, and impossible to read. He's watching her closely, asking too many questions. She doesn't know if he's hunting her, helping her... or something else entirely. All Zahra knows is this: if she doesn't learn to master the power inside her, it won't just be her future that burns - It'll be the world. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cover art was created by me using Procreate!

When Cynthia wakes with two small marks on her neck and a voice outside her window whispers, "I told you I would come back," she begins to realize the truth. Something has been watching her. Something that has known her since she was a child. And it has finally returned. Because some things don't fade with time. Some things wait. And nothing ever stays dead.

    Wednesday Addams was not looking for a child. She certainly was not looking for a loud, stubborn baby girl abandoned in the wrong place at the wrong time. But when Wednesday finds the infant and no one claims her, she does the only sensible thing: keeps her. What begins as a temporary inconvenience turns into something far more dangerous, attachment. Unfortunately for Wednesday, the baby is relentless. She bites, screams, escapes at impossible moments, destroys carefully maintained peace, and seems personally determined to test the limits of Wednesday's patience. Worse, she is strangely unafraid of the darkness, fascinated by the macabre, and entirely too pleased with chaos. Raising a child was never part of Wednesday's plans. Neither was loving one. But anyone foolish enough to threaten the little girl will learn a simple lesson. Wednesday Addams may not enjoy being a mother. That does not mean she will fail at it.
