    DEALT Guess who's the killer? Everyone gets a card. Every card has a purpose. Every purpose has a consequence. Veyra never thought a simple invitation would change her life. One ordinary Saturday morning, she receives a message from an unknown number. YOU HAVE BEEN SELECTED. Six hours later, she finds herself inside an unfamiliar building with dozens of other people, all trapped around tables with nothing but a deck of cards in front of them. There are no spectators. There are no observers. Only players. At first, Veyra thinks the cards are nothing more than roles in a game. The King. The Queen. The Ace. The Jack. The Joker. But she soon discovers that the cards don't simply tell them who they are. They decide what happens to them. Numbers determine the severity. Suits determine the consequence. And every mistake comes with a price. They are given five rounds to identify the Spy. The Ace must find the truth. The Spy must remain hidden. The Joker must deceive them all. And whoever makes the wrong guess will pay the price. But as the games continue, Veyra begins noticing something far more terrifying than the punishments. Someone knows the game. Someone knows the rules. And someone has been waiting for them to arrive. Because this isn't the first time DEALT has been played. And it won't end until the deck is empty. So tell me... If you were dealt a card, would you play your role or rewrite the rules?

    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.

    Elizabeth has spent her life outrunning shadows - the trauma she survived, the men who tried to control her, the quiet ache of wanting something more than safety. She's built a world of light for her boys, a world of light where she can breathe. But, everything changes the night she steps into Sonny Corinthos's orbit and feels the gravity of a man whose name alone can shift the ground beneath her feet. Sonny Corinthos has lived decades with blood on his hands and loyalty in his bones.

He never expected Elizabeth - gentle, stubborn, resilient Elizabeth to be the one person who sees the legend and into the man he's forgotten how to be. Their connection begins quietly; a shared moment in the aftermath of violence, a comfort neither one of them meant to offer. But the spark between them grows into something dangerous -- something neither one of them can deny. Elizabeth finds herself drawn to the steadiness in Sonny's voice, the way he the way he protects without asking anything in return. Sonny is undone by her softness, her fire, her refusal to flinch even when the world whispers warnings about him. As Ric's obsession resurfaces, as Courtney's jealousy sharpens, as Port Charles begins to talk, Elizabeth must decide whether she can survive the storm that comes with loving a man like Sonny. And Soony must face the truth he's avoided for years; that Elizabeth is the one woman who could break him...... or save him

    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
