spiral:

High above the glittering city, behind glass walls and marble floors, live Adrian and Ava Kingsley twins born into wealth, raised in silence, and haunted by the mystery of their parents’ disappearance. For years, the penthouse has been both their sanctuary and their prison, filled with unanswered questions and echoes of a life that was never theirs to understand. When a cryptic message surfaces in their late father’s old files “Some secrets are too dangerous to open” the twins begin to dig into the shadows of their family’s past. But the deeper they go, the more the truth turns against them. Hidden rooms, false memories, and a man who claims to know what really happened to their parents threaten to unravel everything they thought was real. As the walls begin to close in, Adrian and Ava must decide who to trust and how far they’re willing to go to uncover the truth. Because in a world built on deception, even the closest bond can become a weapon. And in the penthouse, nothing stays buried forever.

"We've only been here for two days now, not a lifetime, so calm down. I know you'd all rather be sitting comfortable at home texting your friends, or playing video games, or whatever it is that you do while not being stranded in the middle of god knows where. Trust me. I don't want to be here either. But help has to come... Somebody has to have noticed us missing by now, and they'll come looking for us. I can feel it. So, just until help comes, we'll do what we have to do to survive."

In a galaxy dominated by powerful genetic families, dimensional portals, and beast-fusion warriors, every 17-year-old must undergo a Genetic Awakening. Succeed, and you become an Ascendant. Fail, and you're cast into the mines, or worse. Kael Riven, a known Null, expects nothing from his final trial. But when he touches the Gene Stone, he unlocks something the system can’t classify: a Spiral Gene, a long-lost Overlord genome capable of rewriting reality. Branded an anomaly and hunted by the genetic elite, Kael escapes into a universe ruled by Seven Major Families, each with their own domains, politics, and dark agendas. To survive, he must journey into the Riftspire, a mysterious world beyond a guarded portal, where beasts drop ability cards, strength is earned through combat, and ancient powers slumber. But Kael’s Spiral is damaged, and time is running out. With secrets hidden in his blood, enemies in every shadow, and a power that shouldn’t exist, Kael must rise from outcast to Overlord. Gene-based system? Check. Beast card evolution? Check. Overpowered MC with a hidden legacy? Absolutely.

A journey through the mind of a high school student juggling responsibilities. We dive into her mind before swimming deeper into her daily life.

This is a poem meaning to have a little chatter with your inner soul.

Returning from a failed mission, eve struggles to put her life back together but an unexpected turn occurs that made her life a bit more interesting. Will her trumatic past experiences allow her accept a new path or let her suffer more damage than she already has.........

Melissa left an abusive marriage and found Zach, the love she never even believed could exist. All was going well until one fateful day when their lives were changed forever. That one day set them on a destructive path that included drugs, sex, crime, betrayal, homelessness, and hitting rock bottom- While mental illness directed the show. Melissa and Zach were a mess, and they were under the control of a mechanic shop owner, Bo, who was part of the Hells Angels. Bo kept the unwitting couple doped up; it made them complacent and willing to do his dirty deeds. Melissa and Zach reached a turning point when their withdrawals caused them to become physical with each other. Things had to change, but change was hard, and nobody around them wanted them to change. Is this a story of a couple spiraling into the pit of addiction and never returning, or is it a story of redemption and Karma? It could go either way; I know it is a story of adventure, betrayal, deception, and lies. Everywhere you look, people are smiling and reaching out their hands. Be careful, though. That hand could be filled with poison.
