Years into an epidemic, the quarantine system still functions. Meals are issued. Beds are counted. Transfers are logged. Mistakes are corrected-eventually. Daniel Mercer knows the difference between what the paperwork says and what is actually there. He delivers meals through East housing, where his wife Mara is getting worse and where a delayed update can mean an extra tray, an empty bed, or one more chance to keep her fed. At first, Daniel only uses what the system would waste. Then he learns which delays can be extended, which counts can remain open, and how easily an exception can become a procedure when the numbers still add up. Correct on Paper is a slow-burn psychological dystopian novel about bureaucracy, scarcity, love, and the point at which protecting one person becomes deciding what everyone else can afford to lose.

CAUGHT BY THE PHANTOM They call her The Ghost. France's most wanted thief. A hacker, a con artist, a master of disappearing without leaving so much as a trace. She steals from the rich, launders millions, manipulates the untouchable-and somehow, she always gets away. The police have spent years trying to catch her. Then they send Sebastian Beaumont. An undercover officer with one mission: get close to her, earn her trust, and bring her down. It should have been simple. Except three months of pretending becomes three months of late-night conversations, reckless adventures, stolen kisses, and a relationship neither of them was supposed to want. And then the night comes when the police surround her home. She looks at the man she trusted most. The man who promised he would never lie to her. And he says only two words: "You're under arrest." She disappears from custody days later. Everyone searches for her. Everyone except the man whose house she is sitting in. When Sebastian finally comes home, exhausted from the manhunt, he finds her waiting on his couch like she never left. She smiles. "Missed me?" The game has changed. Because this time, she's not running from him. She's coming for him. And neither of them knows whether the next thing she steals will be his freedom... or his heart.

Eve Carrington is the Undergrid's sharpest hacktivist-passionate, protective, and determined to fight for synthetic civil rights. They hated each other on sight. But when a raid on Eve's secret lab goes horribly wrong, an experimental neural matrix overloads-accidentally binding Knox and Eve together. Now, they are permanently mind-linked. Every private thought, every spike of adrenaline, and every hidden secret is shared. Knox can't hide his darkest trauma. Eve can't hide her rebel plans.

Targeted for execution by the government he served, Knox has only one choice: trust the woman whose mind is trapped inside his own. Together, they have to ignite a revolution-before the Ministry deletes them both.

Cold steel pressed against Sofia's temple. "Hands off her," Paul growled. She turned towards the gunman and smiled. Then she began to sing, swaying to music only she could hear.

Cimmeria Thrace had entered Vesperion Academy believing knowledge could protect her. She had been wrong. In Kaeltharion, the Prolonged ruled from ancient towers while the Brief struggled to survive beneath them. Cimmeria had been chosen to enter their world, believing the academy could become her escape. Instead, she found black marble halls, brutal trials, dangerous creatures, ancient traditions, and secrets buried beneath centuries of privilege. Then there was Evander Valtorin. He had been born into power and raised to believe the world belonged to people like him. Beautiful, influential, and gifted with the ability to control the minds of others, he had never been denied anything. Until Cimmeria. She did not worship him. She did not fear him enough. And she refused to become another person beneath his control. Her defiance fascinated him. His attention frightened her. What began as unwanted fascination slowly became something darker, drawing them into a dangerous world where obsession could disguise itself as devotion and power could become its own form of imprisonment. Beneath Vesperion's gothic towers, something was changing. The city seemed to feel it. The academy seemed to know it. Even the ancient machines beneath its foundations appeared to be waiting. Cimmeria had entered Vesperion, hoping to build a future. She would discover that survival required more than intelligence. It required strength. It required courage. And sometimes, it required becoming something the people who underestimated you could never have imagined. A dark, futuristic, gothic romance filled with obsession, supernatural abilities, dangerous power dynamics, forbidden attraction, academy rivalries, ancient aristocracy, psychological tension, and secrets beneath the rain. Vesperion was never simply a school. It was a world waiting to consume her. Mature themes. Explicit content. Reader discretion advised. © RelleLebby / R. L. / Relle H.

(Y/N as a canon character in the Harry Potter story from Book One - Slytherin POV, Malfoy) Y/N Whitecastle always knew she was different. She just never imagined how different. Raised far from the wizarding world, surrounded by forests, books, and far too many secrets, Y/N has spent her entire life hiding a power no one seems to understand: magic that comes directly from her hands, no wand required. When her Hogwarts letter finally arrives, she thinks that, for the first time in her life, she might actually get the chance to be normal. She couldn't be more wrong. Before she even sets foot on the Hogwarts Express, a stranger named Narcissa Malfoy appears with a revelation: the family Y/N thought she never had has been there all along. And with Narcissa comes Draco Malfoy-arrogant, insufferable, and determined to stay away from the mysterious cousin his father explicitly warned him about. Neither of them keeps that promise for very long. At Hogwarts, Y/N finds friendship in the most unexpected places, enemies who seem to know more about her than she knows about herself, and questions no one is willing to answer. Because while Harry Potter is trying to uncover what lies beyond a forbidden door, Y/N begins a far more dangerous search of her own: finding out who she really is. Everyone seems to know something about her past. Dumbledore lies to her. Snape protects her. The Malfoys are hiding far too much. And there is a dark presence Y/N has felt watching her for as long as she can remember... one that seems to be getting closer. Because some stories begin with the Boy Who Lived, but this one begins with the girl no one was ever supposed to find.

Let's take a look... (Art by Auramark on Pinterest)

The Bloodline Syndicate One scholarship girl. One ruthless heir. A deadly web of secrets, blood oaths, and shadowy empire. Genevieve Vance didn't transfer to the gothic, storm-swept halls of Blackwood Academy to study. She came for blood. Three years after her older brother was murdered on campus grounds, she arrives with only his cryptic leather notebook and a final warning: If I vanish, look to the Syndicate. Enter Julian Thorne-lethal grace made manifest, heir to an industrial empire, and the cold-eyed leader of the Bloodline Syndicate. Julian controls Blackwood from the shadows, and he doesn't take kindly to outsiders poking around in Council business. When Vivi breaks into the academy's locked archives, she expects to find answers. Instead, she finds Julian's silver blade against her throat-and an invitation that forces her into the subterranean crypts beneath the school. To uncover the truth behind her brother's death, Vivi must survive the Three Sins of Initiation alongside the very boy who might be his killer. Bound by a dangerous blood oath, Vivi and Julian are forced into a reluctant partnership as they navigate secret vaults, corporate treachery, and an escalating war against rival syndicates. In a world where loyalty is bought with forged ledgers and treason is punished by death, Vivi quickly learns the most dangerous rule of all: To tear down a monster, you have to become one.

Now trapped inside a system built on control, politics, and silent manipulation, she begins to realize something unsettling-she was never meant to lead. She was chosen.

They call her a project. They think they made her. But a chess piece that becomes self-aware? That's when the game breaks. _______ "You're the President now" he began and I glanced at him. He was behind my desk, working on something. "You must not attend all classes" "I'm almost at the finish line. I can't drop from a 4.8 to a 2.6" I answered before shutting my eyes and he chuckled. "Richie was meaning to drop-" "No!" I immediately rejected. "Relax, I turned him down" he said and I let out an inward sigh. "But you can't avoid him forever, he is necessary" "Necessarily evil" I muttered. "Anyways, you will be having your first council meeting with the executives-" "Not interested" There was silence for a second. "You are the President" I shot up the sofa, "even though I get into a horrible accident and lose my memory, I wouldn't forget that!" He paused, letting out a breath, his eyes still fixed on me. "You can't avoid this one. It's-" "-necessary?" "Yes. You need to speak to the people running this government with you. You have nothing to worry about, they are all on our side" "Except the Vice president. He is the spy" "At least, you are getting used to things" he answered and I huffed, falling back on the sofa. "You have some core functions you can't outrun. I have promised to handle the non-core functions" "I didn't know being a pawn was this demanding" He chuckled.
