While my sister was protecting me from the vampires hunting us, a blade coated with poison slit her throat. I hid in the bushes and watched the whole thing in silence. I even took the antidote from Sophia. Because of that, the poison had spread through her entire body. With her self-healing ability suppressed, she was going to die in agony. My parents found me and begged me, disregarding their dignity as leaders of the pack. "Anna! Please! Give the antidote back to Sophia!" "She needs the antidote to flush out the poison and live!" Even with my parents begging and swallowing their pride, I just held onto the antidote in my pocket tighter. "I didn't see any antidote."

“Come with me,“ he ordered.  “I'm not going anywhere!“ Freya stood her ground, looking up at his blank face.   Something flashed past his dark eyes as he heard her. “You really have some guts, don't you?“   “Well, I don't care what this is. I don't care why I'm in a wedding gown and why I'm being treated like I chose this. You could kill me if you want. But I'm not—”   “Is this about the kiss, my Lady?“ he asked, sounding amused.  Freya wanted the ground to open up and swallow her at that moment. Her face went scarlet red and she almost forgot the other reason why she was angry. “Why should I care about the fact that you didn't kiss me? I barely know you and—”   “Right.“ That was all he said before he gently grabbed her waist and crushed his lips on hers...

An unregulated app called "Goddess Hunter" had started spreading through our college. Photos of every young woman in our university had been posted there. Anyone could anonymously rate them and leave comments. I had stumbled upon it by accident. That was when I found out I was ranked first on the "Hunting Board", and under my photo were obscene comments and bets. Worse, the app had real-time location tracking! No matter where I went, a group of young men would follow me around, whistling and pointing at me. I reported it to the university's administration, but nothing came of it. They simply said they couldn't find the developer. The next day, my "Hunting Quest" was posted. [Quest Target: Rip off Sinead Hill's skirt. Reward: One thousand dollars.]

A dark, clinical neo-noir thriller, The Architect of the Shadows strips away the glamour of Hollywood to expose the brutal friction between digital consolidation and physical reality. For decades, Silas Thorne Danielson—a ruthlessly brilliant logistics coordinator with a calculated detachment from human empathy—has operated an invisible shadow utility. Using non-networked legacy hardware and shell-company registries, he has quietly absorbed independent cinematic libraries, systematically dismantling the legacy of aging action star and stunt coordinator Sebastian Sorgentone to hide multi-million-dollar maritime assets. But when an automated federal audit loop paralyzes Silas’s digital infrastructure, the conflict fractures out of the cloud and into the physical world. Trapped by a looming federal dragnet, Silas must head south to a lead-lined Cold War salt silo in Key Largo to retrieve the physical backup arrays that can reset his network. Waiting for him are Sebastian and his estranged brother Francis, mobilizing six tons of un-trackable military iron to drag the slick corporate architect into a landscape where digital logic fails, and only physical endurance and raw mass matter. Meanwhile, across the country, Sebastian’s daughters navigate the wreckage of their family’s financial collapse, shifting from targets of the system to the pragmatic components that will ultimately help seal it shut. Grounded in a grim, industrial realism, the narrative explores the heavy price of family survival, the unyielding weight of memory, and the permanent closing of a system that tried to turn human blood into data entries.

Ever since my wife had that oversized custom sofa delivered, she'd been sleeping in the living room every night. Whenever I tried to bring her back to the bedroom, she brushed me off with the same excuse—she was tired. Sometimes, she even locked the bedroom door from the outside. I would hear muffled, muffled sounds coming from the living room late into the night. The door wouldn't open again until the next morning. I couldn't take it anymore. The day she gave birth, she had just been wheeled out of the delivery room, still lying on the hospital bed, too weak to even sit up. I refused to hold the baby. Instead, I told her I wanted a divorce. Her eyes turned red as she stared at me. "Just because I've been sleeping on the couch every night, you're divorcing me, right after I give birth to our child?" I didn't hesitate. "Yeah."
