The Destructive Adventures of the Lovers

After being torn from the only life she knew, 16-year-old Margo is forced into a new home with strangers who call themselves her parents. Haunted by memories of her past and consumed by feelings of isolation, she struggles to adapt to her unfamiliar surroundings. School offers little relief—until she meets Gabriel, a mysterious boy who appears just when she needs a friend the most. Gabriel is everything Margo needs: kind, attentive, and always ready to whisk her away from her troubles. Each night, he invites her to secret places—an abandoned playground, a fog-choked garden, a crumbling train station at the edge of town—each more unsettling than the last. Yet with every chilling rendezvous, Margo feels more alive... more seen. But something isn’t right. Gabriel never comes to school during the day. Her adoptive parents never see him. And when they catch her talking to thin air, their concern deepens into fear. They say Gabriel isn't real—that he’s a figment of her imagination. Margo wants to believe them, but Gabriel feels real. More real than anything else in her life. As the nights grow colder and more twisted, Gabriel’s true nature begins to surface. Shadows move where they shouldn’t. Time warps in his presence. And the places they visit seem to echo with whispers from another world. Margo is forced to ask herself: Who—or what—is Gabriel? Why does he only want her? And what will happen on the final night he asks her to come with him? As the line between reality and delusion begins to crumble, Margo must make an impossible choice: stay in a world where she feels loved, or return to one that barely feels real. But one thing is certain—some friendships never let go.

Fragments of Godhood

The sky doesn’t fall. It updates. One night, the world crosses an unseen requirement and reality stamps a verdict across every screen: Qualified. The Awakening window opens for everyone twenty and older—no warning, no handbook, no “trial period.” Some people light up. Some people break. And when they break, they don’t always leave bodies behind. They leave Fragments. Bright, pulsing remnants that feel less like miracles and more like bait. They draw attention. They draw hunger. They turn ordinary streets into places where strangers circle the same patch of air like it owes them something. Kael Vasquez is newly twenty and newly trapped inside a rule-set nobody asked for. His Authority isn’t flashy, and it doesn’t make him safe—just aware. A little too aware. He can feel panic building before it hits, hear the shape of danger in concrete and crowds, sense the moment a person is about to lose control. That awareness doesn’t save anyone by itself. It just tells him exactly how bad the next ten seconds are going to be. In a city where fear travels faster than sirens, Kael has to move through collapsing stairwells, basement shelters, and desperate alliances—while something worse than chaos wakes up alongside the Fragments: people who learn the new rules quickly, and start treating survivors like resources. And the younger ones—too young to awaken, old enough to remember—watch the adults vanish and start believing in whoever looks like they can stop it. Kael doesn’t want faith. He doesn’t want worship. He wants to live through the night. But in a Qualified world, belief is never free—and godhood is just another kind of debt.

Pregnant in Esper world: Who's the baby daddy?

AN ESPER'S MOAN IS HIS TRUEST CONFESSION. After dying in a world he had been transmigrated into, a young man thought his suffering was finally over. He believed he would wake up back in his original world...Earth where everything was at least familiar. But fate was far crueler. Instead of waking up in his own body, he opened his eyes in yet another strange place, one that was even more dangerous than the last. This was an esper world. And worse still, he hadn't woken up as some hero or powerful awakened being. No. He had transmigrated into the fragile body of a young man who worked as a bar attendant in a shady private club, a place that secretly dealt in human trafficking, where people like him could easily end up as nothing more than entertainment toys for espers if he wasn't careful. As if his life wasn't fucked up enough, Orion soon found out he was PREGNANT!!! In his first life, he had no memories of being pregnant for anyone so… how could he possibly be carrying a child? Who is the baby daddy? In this society, guides were rare and because of this, they were forbidden from becoming pregnant except they're bonded. Yet here Orion was hiding not just one crime, but two. First, concealing his true identity as a guide. Second, carrying a child without ever having been bonded to an esper. Two unforgivable sins. And the punishment for either was death. But then Orion thought death was good not until he found out the secret about the host whose body he is inside, the host who wasn't that innocent afterall. And the baby in his stomach is not tied to only one esper but five powerful espers. Or maybe more.

Bound To Three Mates, Desired By My Gay Professor (BL X Straight)

I ran from the Black Moon Pack for years. I thought I could hide from fate. I was wrong. The Moon Goddess bound me to the triplets of the pack, Ronan, Kael, and Lys. Three ruthless Alpha children, and I was the human girl foolish enough to run from them. Ronan shoved me against the wall, his growl vibrating through my bones. “You think you can run from us?” Kael’s hand slipped under my dress, fingers sliding into my wet heat as if proving I already belonged to them. And Lys, he claimed my mouth in a kiss so deep I forgot why I had ever resisted. They didn’t just want me. They wanted to remind me I was theirs, and they'd punish me for starving them. But the Moon Goddess didn’t only show me passion—she showed me destruction. The hollow crescent academy in flames. Blood soaking the soil. Death waiting for everyone I cared about. No one told me to stop it, yet I know I must. I thought running away would solve everything, but I was caught. Now, I should focus on saving the world. On surviving my three savage mates. But then there’s him. Professor Daren. He corners me after class, his lips hot on my ear. “I have three mates already,” I whisper, shivering as his hand toys with the lace of my panties. “They know about this,” he breathes, sliding a finger beneath. “And they can’t take you the way I will.” ****** Hi good day readers. Please when reading, I hope you can picture yourself in a setting like the "Wednesday series " Thank you.

CHANNEL 87

UPDATES DAILY (for now) Ten years after a global societal collapse due to an undisclosed and poorly understood “accident”, Athena finds herself staring down the barrel of a fifty caliber sniper rifle, wielded by an out of place woman in a yellow sundress who is defending her claim over a broken vending machine. As Athena and her three brothers, Benny, Cal, and Jules continue to scrape out a meager existence in the wreckage of an urban wasteland, they happen across the stranger in the sundress again. And again. And again. Each time, she specifically antagonizes Athena without relent, pushing her to the point of genuine burning hatred. When the stranger, Katie, finally approaches the four of them with a scheme that is certain to be mutually beneficial, Athena is faced with a painstaking opportunity to best further her one and only goal in life: keeping her brothers alive. To that end, Athena will stop at nothing, not even if it means working with someone she despises. Or dealing with Katie’s sailor-mouthed, explosive-obsessed, junkrat twelve year old sister, Bumblebee. In order to survive the perils of the urban wasteland and carve out a better existence for themselves, the six must join forces and face the worst that the apocalypse has to throw at them. Whether they live or die depends entirely on their ability to coordinate their survival against the conditions, environment, resource scarcity, and the infernal heat of summer. Not to mention, the monsters that hunt when the acid rain falls. CHANNEL 87 deals with sensitive subjects such as violence, gore, suicidality, starvation, cannibalism, infectious disease, death, and human cruelty.
