A w|w high school romance story, with a true crime twist. The year 1984 loomed heavy over the small town of Frisco, Colorado. For Kelsey Vaughn, a senior at Snowy Peaks High School, it was the worst time to be alive. A small town preaching hate towards people like her. People that fall in love with the same gender. Kelsey wants to just graduate and move away to somewhere that nobody will know her, but there's a few people that she's not ready to leave behind. Like Antionette Vale, the girl she can't seem to ignore no matter how much she tries. But Kelsey's complicated feelings aren't the only thing going on in Frisco. Something much darker is looming over the town. When bodies begin to pop up one after the other, there is only one logical conclusion. Murder. As more and more clues come up, it begins to seem like Kelsey is the only one who can solve the murders, but how can she do that when it's her own love that she's lost?

In the heart of blue skies, there lies three clans who had always been at peace; allowing any warrior to go onto another clan's territory. They had been taught with kindness and respect, so the first leaders decided that any cat from the clans could come and go wherever in the clans' territory. Until... A murder. A unknown serial killer had gone loose, killing those who suspect them. A group of apprentices from each clan and two young warriors decide to team up and work together to find this murder-before time runs out.

**All the Characters belong to DC and Rick Riordan except for original characters** What's the most common thing in Gotham? Villains and Vigilantes. What is the second most common thing? Murder. People dropped like flies. Bodies washed up on the shores of Gotham Pier. They were found in alleys, garbage cans, high in trees, splattered on the street. Everywhere. The Gotham City Police Department couldn't keep up, not with all the bank robberies and corruption they had to deal with. And who was better to ask for help than the Greatest Detectives in the world? Oh, and Nico is there too. **This is kinda a one-shot series, but there might be an overarching story across a few chapters.**

She does not crave closeness. She survives without it because she knows what it costs. Detached. Controlled. Unreadable. The world knows her as efficient and unfeeling-no one knows what it costs her to remain that way. He enters her life as nothing more than a position above hers. A superior. A stranger. Calm, playful, and impossible to understand. What begins as professional distance sharpens into conflict. Silence turns heavy. Words turn dangerous. Somewhere between power and resistance, a murder begins to surface-quiet, unresolved, and far too close for comfort. Bittersweetness is a psychological slow-burn about control, mistrust, and how strangers collide long before they understand why.

Every evening, Shubman goes to the rooftop to get some fresh air, but there are three boys whom Shubman often catches looking at his way from another nearby rooftop. However, Shubman ignores it and minds his own business. Meanwhile, two of them have already claimed him as their 'bhabhi'.

One believes in power. One believes in truth. One makes the rules. The other follows them-but always on her own terms. It is a story where love is not gentle; it is claimed. A rising politician, Trijal believes in power, control, and the certainty that in this world, trust is always temporary. Every move he makes is calculated, every bond measured by its usefulness. Shraddha believes in truth-in quiet strength, in integrity that does not bend easily, she believes in sometimes silence speaks louder than voice. When their worlds collide, power meets resistance, control meets defiance, and desire grows where it should not. Bound by rules, secrets, and unspoken choices, they must learn that power can command obedience-but only the heart can demand loyalty.

I didn't mean to be involved in a murder. I only meant to survive a week-long corporate retreat on a private island where the Wi-Fi was unreliable and everyone hated each other politely. When our host turns up dead before the ferry returns, the rest of us are stranded with no outside contact, too many secrets, and one inconvenient fact: I may not be remembering the night correctly. As accusations circulate and alliances crack, I start documenting everything-mostly to prove I'm innocent, partly because someone needs to keep track of the lies. The problem is, the more I write, the clearer it becomes that everyone has a reason to kill him. Including me. So the real question isn't who did it. It's whether I can trust myself when I think I know the answer.

Everyone thinks she killed them. When two little girls vanish after a summer storm, the police don't look far for answers. They don't need to. The mother at the end of the street-the last person to see the girls alive-becomes the perfect suspect. Muddy footprints, suspicious routines, a tragic past: it all adds up to murder... or so the town believes. Her daughter knows the truth. Or at least, she wants to. But standing by her mother means being hated, harassed, and abandoned by everyone else. Even after the case stalls, suspicion never leaves their home. That's when a quiet, unsettling stranger steps into her life. He says he wants to help. He says he doesn't believe the story adds up. But what he really wants is answers-about her, about her mother, about what happened to those missing girls. ‼️ALL CHARACTERS (besides my lovely Near my lovely readers) ARE ORIGINAL CHARACTERS‼️

Druffin is a small Scottish coastal town where everyone knows everyone and no one tells the whole truth. The sea keeps its secrets. So do the people. When Chloe Stowe is found dead, the town is quick to move on. The police call it suicide. The school holds an assembly. Flowers appear, rumours spread, and then life goes on. Except it doesn't. Chloe was everything: popular, beautiful, untouchable. The kind of girl people envied, copied, and whispered about. She wasn't supposed to die. And she definitely wasn't supposed to die like that. Her best friend knows something is wrong. Chloe wouldn't have given up. Not without leaving a trail behind. Because Chloe left clues. Messages hidden in plain sight. Secrets woven into her life like lies she never meant to take to the grave. As the truth begins to unravel, it becomes clear that Chloe Stowe wasn't who everyone thought she was. And the people of Druffin? They're hiding far more than they're willing to admit. Chloe may be dead, but her story isn't over. And the closer the truth gets, the more dangerous it becomes. Some ghosts don't haunt houses. They haunt people. *Prequel to the Society of the Blue Rose series* *Can be read as a stand-alone*
