    Shauna Gibbs arrived at Westmont Academy carrying everything she could not put down - the memory of her father's voice, the silence he left behind, and a promise she intends to keep no matter what it costs her. She did not come looking for anyone. She came to build something her father would recognize, something worth the grief. Evan Park arrived carrying his own wreckage - the kind that hides behind a clean jawline and a football jersey and a grandmother's house so large it echoes when you walk through it alone. He is disciplined and guarded and quietly devastated, and he is not looking for anything either. They find each other the way people find each other when they are not paying attention to where they are walking. What builds between them is not fast. It is not simple. It is chosen, deliberately and quietly, against the weight of other people's expectations, against a friendship that is not what it appears to be, against a world that has opinions about who belongs with whom and says so in the ways that worlds always say things - in looks and rooms and doors that open for some people and close for others. And then everything that was quietly building between them cracks open. All at once. In the worst possible way. Where the Light Stopped is a slow-burning interracial romance and psychological suspense novel about grief and its aftermath, about what love costs when the world around it is actively trying to undo it, and about what remains of two people when everything they built has been stripped to the foundation. This story does not rush. It does not look away. And it does not promise you easy. ©️ Relle H.// R. H.

    At four in the afternoon, Simone Harper opens her door and finds Adrian standing on the other side. He looks like him. Sounds like him. Even kisses her like him. It takes her nearly three minutes to realize something is wrong. By morning, the man is gone. The security footage is empty. And Adrian is calling from Boston with proof that he never came home. As small inconsistencies begin to infect everything Simone believes about the man she loves, she is forced to ask a far more dangerous question than who came to her door: How well can you ever know someone who already knows exactly what you need to see?

    What if Scar raised Simba? Raised under a master manipulator, Simba grows into a formidable but hollow Prince caught between two worlds: the memory of a father he believes he murdered and the uncle he worships as his savior. Locked in a psychological game of cat and mouse with a Regent who will never step down, Simba is forced to realize that the "weak link" in the Pridelands might just be the King himself. So, a Prince must decide if he is a monster, a puppet, or the rightful King-and whether the only way to save the Circle of Life is to break it entirely. This is a Dark AU with a darker and traumatized Simba with a happy ending.

    Have you ever been in a toxic work environment where the boss is a charismatic, gaslighting entity, whose claws pop out when she suddenly realises that you are no longer playing her games? To add spice, she carelessly promised nothing short of greatness to external clients (without your knowledge) --even if it were work that the organisation simply does not do! Her refusal to acknowledge operational realities and limitations was simply reframed as "challenges." Whatever she promised, she was poised to take all the credit. If anything went wrong, it was due to YOUR failure to rise to a challenge! She simply took no blame! Her lies were carefully thought-out deflections to hide from her managerial deficiencies. This is my story and how I dealt with this situation.

    A detailed and documented list of Southwark Council's attempts to cover up all the problems created, and regulations broken, by a mosque which they still allow to operate despite the tenancy agreement stating that it should officially be a Community Training and Advice Centre. Each chapter has a short version, meant as an overview of the event, and a longer version, which contains more details and evidence. It would be great to hear from people who have experienced similar issues, and share success stories, how they were achieved, and what can be done to help those still struggling. somethingisrotteninsouthwark ( at ) gmail ( dot ) com

The new reality is stark and bewildering, marked by a chasm between what is and what is portrayed. Powerless governments resort to deception, propagating the illusion of normalcy while death and mysterious ailments ravage the populace.

    Elara has only one starting point in her life: waking up with a high fever in a remote cabin deep in the woods, where Elias, a calm and attentive young man is nursing her back to health. According to Elias, he found her nearly lifeless on a riverbank after a violent storm, brought her home, and gave her a new life. Now, Elara spends her days serving as Elias's personal attendant in the stillness of the wilderness, far removed from civilization. Their routine appears peaceful, yet Elara is haunted by fragments of missing memories, a void that Elias always fills with his version of her "troubled" past. Beneath the surface of the man's composure and Elara's unwavering devotion, a secret lies buried deeper than the roots of the forest surrounding them.

    Have you ever heard a song and I mean it's your average everyday song you vibe to but then one day you stop and really listen to the lyrics and, and, you then thin to yourself "fk.. this song is really good.." because you just realize how truly great the song really is because this time when you listened to it, it hit you deep inside on another level you never thought anything could.. and you play it again because you just can't get enough of that feeling it just gave you. So you play it again thinking your just gonna play it once more but you replay it continuously letting yourself get eaten and devoured by your thought as if reality took a pause and everything went silent and you went numb so it's just you and your thought at the very moment. And so you fall in love with the beat, the lyrics, the feelings that it makes you feel. Your so Inlove with you just just can't get enough of it. And it starts to play over and over in your head and you realize that all you want it that song all you'll ever need is that song. I think that's how it feels to fall in love. Like you've always knew that person but one day they made you feel something you've never felt for them before and it catches you completely off guard but you did really mind it..then you start talking to them more like you starting a song and you continue because you want to, which is like putting it on repeat. Then you fall Inlove with their eyes. Their smile. Their voice. Their personality. And you just fall Inlove with them entirely. You can't get enough of them. Then your thoughts always somehow drag you to think about them because all you want is them. I think falling Inlove is just like that.
