Fate of the Eyes By Nafisa Abubakar Sadiq In the quiet village of Karaye, Fatima Musa is known for two things, her brilliance... and her strange, unforgettable eyes. But beauty is not always a blessing. To the villagers, her light brown gaze is a curse. A sign of bad luck. A reason to whisper behind her back, point fingers, and call her names she never deserves. And in a home where love should feel safe, Fatima faces a different kind of pain, one that comes from the people closest to her. All Fatima wants is a future. A chance to study. A chance to escape the small life that is slowly suffocating her dreams. But just when she thinks her life is finally moving forward, everything begins to fall apart. A scholarship opportunity. A marriage proposal. A jealous village. A love she never expected. And a decision that could change her entire destiny. Fatima is trapped between the life she wants and the life others are forcing on her. And in a world where secrets hide behind smiles, one truth is waiting patiently to explode... and when it does, nothing will ever be the same again. Because Fate is watching.

James Hayes was supposed to have everything ahead of him. At sixteen, he is already being spoken about like the future of football: gifted, fearless, frighteningly intelligent, and carrying the kind of talent most players spend their lives chasing. The world is opening up in front of him, and James is ready to prove he belongs at the very top. Then everything changes. Broken in more ways than one, James is forced into a life he never expected, far from home and surrounded by people who know his name but not the weight he carries. In Los Angeles, he must learn how to live again: through pain, grief, rehab, school, family, and the pressure of becoming the player everyone still expects him to be. But LA brings more than a fresh start. It brings a sister he never knew existed, a family already shaped by the man James looks painfully like, and a new world where football means something entirely different. At Pacific Crest, an elite school built on ambition and competition, James has to find his place while facing a future that no longer looks anything like the one he planned. He was once one of the best young footballers in the world. Now the question is not whether he can win again. The question is can he do it all again in LA

Surviving the end of the world was only the beginning. Shara and the others have spent years learning how to stay alive in a world overrun by the infected. They learned to sleep lightly, trust carefully, ration everything, and never assume that safety would last. Now, something is changing. The infected are weakening. Some are collapsing without explanation, and the force still connected to Shara seems to recognize a pattern it has yet to reveal. For the first time in years, the possibility exists that humanity's greatest threat may not last forever. But surviving a dying world and learning how to live in what comes after are two very different things. Back at the sanctuary, Shara, Randy, Marcus, Darius, and Lena begin doing something none of them expected to have the luxury of doing again: planning for a future. Gardens expand. Water systems are rebuilt. Permanent rooms replace temporary sleeping spaces. Slowly, a refuge created to keep the world out begins making room for other people. Then signs of another survivor appear beyond the boundary. As strangers become neighbors and survival gives way to community, Shara and the others must decide what parts of the old world are worth rebuilding-and what kind of world they want to create in its place. Because humanity doesn't just need to survive anymore. It needs to remember how to live. Calming the Wild is the second and final book in The Wild Duology, a post-apocalyptic story about survival, healing, found family, rebuilding, and the quiet courage it takes to hope again.

She escaped her past. A new country. A quiet life. A chance to start over. She thought healing meant leaving everything behind. She never imagined it would lead her... to a part of herself she'd never known.

Every generation of the House of Romanov produces a dragon. Andrei Alexandrovich was supposed to be raised as one. Instead, the Imperial War Ministry turned him into a weapon. By the time Genevieve de Villiers arrives in Russia, Andrei has spent years being measured, controlled, suppressed, and used in the name of empire. He is the War Dragon: feared, disciplined, and dangerously close to forgetting that he was ever meant to be anything else. Genevieve has no intention of letting that continue. What begins as a political arrangement becomes something far more dangerous-a bond neither court nor crown can easily control. As war, succession, ancient dragon bloodlines, and the weight of imperial expectation close in around them, Andrei must learn that freedom is more than the absence of chains. It is choice. It is trust. It is being loved as a man, not valued as a weapon. And sometimes, the most dangerous thing a dragon can do is choose for himself.

Indira "Indi" West is a licensed therapist with cerebral palsy and the softest thing in a city that keeps trying to harden her. When she's assigned to run group sessions at King's Corner, the community boxing gym holding half the neighborhood together, she's ready for angry boys, court dates, and panic attacks. She's not ready for Messiah King-the gym's founder, her first love, and the man who once walked her home, then disappeared "to keep her safe." Now they're sharing the same kids, the same circles, the same late nights in a building with his name on it. Indi has rules: no flirting, no blurred lines, no saving men who don't want to save themselves. But watching Messiah stand between these boys and the same streets that almost swallowed him makes it harder to pretend he's just a "community partner." In a world where jail visits feel more normal than report cards, Indi and Messiah are trying to give these kids a different ending... while quietly wondering if they're allowed one too. Includes themes of trauma, incarceration, panic attacks, police encounters, and violence alongside romance, softness, and healing.

Her secret is a taped door, a box she swore never to open, and a poem her dead mother used to sing: _"You are not the storm, you're the sea. You are not lost. You're the shore. I'm in the quiet. I'm in you."_ Until a fox-dog's touch rips her into a stone room. Blue blood on the walls. A scarred hand reaching through the dark. A voice breaking apart: _"Stay with me. Please."_ *Bastian Verek* is the Leader of the Moonfang. He bleeds blue. He bleeds for a war the King won't let him finish. He bleeds because of him - the man he trusted most put a friction-blade in his back. A blade that unravels him, cell by cell. He doesn't believe in strangers. He doesn't believe in saving.

She changed her name, raised her daughter alone, and built a life from survival and sheer will. Seventeen years later, Dr. Simone Harris is exactly who she fought to become. Then the past walks through her emergency room doors and everything she's protected starts to crack. Joel Ahn left Los Angeles as a teenager exiled by his own family, carrying guilt he never fully named. He came back a decade later with a wife, a hollow feeling, and no idea that the night that broke him also created someone extraordinary. Michelle is sixteen, first chair, and sharp enough to read every room she walks into. She's spent her whole life protecting her mother without knowing the full story of why protection was ever necessary. When the truth finally surfaces, it doesn't arrive gently. It arrives in fluorescent light, in legal documents, at a kitchen table where no one has a script and everyone is too tired to perform. This is a slow-burn, explicit, adult story about three people learning to tell the truth to each other. It contains domestic violence, trauma, parental grief, class and racial power dynamics, and love that arrives not in spite of all of it, but right through the middle. It is not a fast story. It earns everything it has. Mature audiences only. ©️ _RelleLebby_//R. L.
