Sun Darkened: Black or Gold At Valour College, excellence isn’t a goal—it’s the currency. Bisola Oladehinde is the undisputed Queen of Year 13. The daughter of a ruthless billionaire, she has spent her life being shaped into a masterpiece of precision and cold ambition. Her path to the Ivy League is paved with 4.5 GPAs and a silence that no one dares to break. She doesn't just win; she dominates. Then came Cian Beaumont-Adeyemi. Fourteen years old. A published researcher with honey-brown eyes and a mind that maps the world in non-linear equations. He doesn't follow the rules of the social hierarchy—he orbits them.

When the school’s most prestigious Applied Science project forces them into the same orbit, the friction is immediate. One is a machine of discipline; the other is a storm of intuition. In a world where gold is the only weight that matters, Bisola is about to find out what happens when a star brighter than her own enters the sky. Is he the rival meant to break her streak, or the eclipse meant to set her free?

Why is there a woman in my army… dressed as a man?” The blade is at my throat.

Elara’s first life crashed hard. Cruel tricks ruined her name, broke her dreams, and turned the whole entertainment world against her. Friends betrayed her. Lovers sold her out. Everyone she trusted stabbed her in the back. The pain piled up until she felt trapped with no way out. One night, she couldn’t take it anymore. She walked to the river and ended it all in the cold, quiet water. Later, proof came out. Messages. Recordings. Everything showed she had been framed. People posted apologies online. But it was too late. She was already gone. The universe, though, clearly has a twisted sense of humor. Because somehow, Elara came back. She woke up in her own past, every awful memory still sharp in her head. Right then she made a promise she would never break: protect her gentle grandfather no matter what, and never let anyone push her to that dark place again. This time she steps into the entertainment world with her head high. She trains harder, sings better, fights smarter. The same people who once crushed her? Now they get to feel the pressure. Love? Not happening. Her heart is locked tight. But why is it that as she rises and shines brighter, handsome, powerful men start circling her—guys who never even glanced at her in her previous life were now hovering around her. The actor smiled at her during a press interview, leaned closer, and said softly, “We should have dinner sometime.” The footballer sent flowers so big they blocked her room door. The surgeon she met at a charity event checked her pulse and then forgot to let go of her wrist. The singer she collaborated with kept calling her name during rehearsals, as if the mic could not hear him well enough. Elara stared at the ceiling that night and sighed. She only wanted to sing. Why did everyone look like they wanted to adopt her, date her, or both? But the worst one came after the concert. The lights had just gone off. Her ears were still ringing. Sweat clung to her neck. She had barely stepped backstage when a shadow blocked her path. She looked up. The CEO of the greatest company in Aurelia stood there. The same man who once said her voice was “not worth investing in.” The same man who did not even know her name before rebirth. Now he held her wrist lightly, but firmly. “Let’s talk,” he said. Elara blinked. “About… sponsorship?” “No,” he replied calmly. “About marriage.” Her brain froze. “…What?” “I will give you everything,” he continued, as if asking for a glass of water. “Resources. Protection. Freedom to sing. Become my wife.” Elara stared at him, her mouth open, her thoughts running in circles. This was not how it was supposed to be. Why was the world now skipping steps? NB: This story takes place in a fictional world. Aurelia is a country. Solmere, Veston, and Starfall City are the three capital cities of Aurelia. Other cities, such as Lorien and Crelou, are smaller cities.

CHAOS REIGN: Chronicles of the Fallen Blood "In a world forged by magic and baptized in blood, truth is not salvation - it is the deadliest weapon of all." The world trembles on the edge of annihilation. Dimensional borders splinter like shattered glass, ripping open the fabric of reality. From those fractures, the Demon Clans emerge - not as mere invaders, but as a spreading plague, devouring kingdoms that once stood proud and untouchable. Amid the chaos walks Kaera. A hybrid. Half human. Half demon. A forbidden existence born of blood that should never have mixed. Haunted by the remnants of a fractured past, she carries a single purpose etched into her soul: to find her father - Astaroth, a name spoken in whispers, a legend swallowed by darkness. At her side stands Eira, a Magic Archer of the Elven race - sharp-eyed, disciplined, and far more dangerous than her quiet composure suggests. Together, they traverse broken continents and forgotten realms, chasing the threads of an ancient conspiracy - a truth powerful enough to collapse the very system that governs their world. But when blood holds the power to save... and to destroy - Is Kaera the salvation this dying world seeks? Or the catastrophe it was destined to fear?

​"Dear Father, you taught me how to be a monster. It is only fair that you are the one to taste my monstrosity." ​Olivia Luceron was the perfect tool for her father, the Duke of Tharon. For years, she played the role of the devoted daughter, acting as a spy within her own marriage to dismantle her husband’s power and surrender his secrets. Her reward for such loyalty? A cold dungeon, a mutilated body, and a walk of shame through the streets of the Imperial Capital. ​She died hating the man she once worshipped, and grieving for the husband she had systematically destroyed. Duke Matthias—the man she treated with nothing but icy indifference—was the only one who stayed faithful to her until his final breath. ​But death was not the end. ​When Olivia opens her eyes, she finds herself back in time, exactly one year before her tragic end. Her platinum hair is unblemished, her skin is free of scars, and the husband she betrayed stands before her once again—with those same cold eyes, devoid of any warmth. ​In this life, Olivia seeks neither forgiveness nor love; she has long since lost faith in both. She has only one purpose: to play the "Perfect Wife" to atone for her sins, while systematically annihilating the Tharon bloodline—the very lineage that turned her into a monster before discarding her. ​She will wear the mask of ice the world expects to hide a heart of fire. But as she navigates a world of lethal poisons and imperial intrigue, she realizes that the silent Duke she once ignored hides a truth far more deadly than the House of Tharon itself. ​The hunt has begun. And this time, Olivia is no longer the prey—she is the hunter.
