Dawlya’s Dragon

Dawlya’s Dragon

Trace’s voice echoed over the speakers, calm and commanding: “People of Osca, As requested by our honored neighbors and protectors, we open our skies tonight.” Avi felt Cain’s hand brush the back of hers, grounding her. Above them, the vast biodome flickered. Light panels dimmed. A deep hum pulsed through the structure. And then The sky split open. The dome parted in curved sections like petals unfolding, revealing the night sky beyond. Cool air swept into the city, stirring the lanterns and carrying the scent of the wild plains outside. A collective gasp rose from the people below. And then The Grenons descended.

The Childless Sky

The Childless Sky

However, to his surprise, Hannah jolted up from the bed as if she had been shocked. Jack was in the dark about the full terms of the agreement, unaware that one of the grievances was Hannah's abortion, done to clear the way for Jack's future child. "Why? Is it wrong to want a child for Jack? Jack's dying, with just six months left. In the end, won't I still be with you? If it bothered you, why didn't you say something sooner?"

The White Rose Of Damnation

The White Rose Of Damnation

One by one the others arrived: Abigail, Allison, Jennifer, Joanna, Rachel, Lauren, Bianca and Chelsey O’Brien, Kimberly, Mason, Michael, Noah, Connor, Elijah, and Xavier. Seventeen people. Seventeen stories. Seventeen hearts. Sky stood atop a low stone at the front—not as a commander, but as a tuning fork. Around the circle, candles burned in different colors, each flame resonating with an element. The air felt thick with attention. “Today we do not fight,” Sky began softly, yet clearly. “We do not demonstrate strength. We do not compete. What I’m asking of you doesn’t require courage, speed, or precision.”

Running Under the New Moon

Running Under the New Moon

The senior priest's voice rang throughout the sacred grounds, and the pack cheered thunderously. The horns and drums of celebrations thundered as bonfires were lit, and the celebrations began. Lyon took my hand as we left the stage, his warm grasp enveloping me, his warmth vivid and eternal. I looked up at the night sky, where the stars were bright and the moon was radiant, illuminating the path ahead while gently embracing Lyon and myself, the new Alpha and Luna.

The Blood Bound Legacy

The Blood Bound Legacy

The devastation had crumbled in our wake, closing anything hidden below the ground for good — or for the time being. But the sky behind told another story.

Blood beneath the ice

Blood beneath the ice

The biting winter wind carried whispers of their long past as Kane and Elias sat on the old porch, eyes fixed on the endless stars above. "After all these years, the sky still feels like it is ours alone," Kane said, voice low but full of fire. Elias leaned closer, their shoulders touching under thick blankets. "It does. We chased so much under these same stars. Tonight with the family here, it all comes together." Their children and grandchildren filled the yard and porch with noise and warmth. Laughter rang out as little ones chased each other through the snow. The house behind them glowed with lights, but the real heat came from the circle of love around the two old mates.

Beneath the confession

Beneath the confession

Afterwards, we lay tangled together, listening to the distant drip of water. “We have to get out,” Jordan said eventually. “But we’re coming back, with help.” I nodded against his chest. “Together.” The journey back to the surface was tense but uneventful. We emerged near dawn, filthy and exhausted, slipping back to our quarters just as the first bells began to ring. As I washed the mud from my body in the novices’ washroom, I caught my reflection in the small, cracked mirror. My eyes looked older. But there was fire in them too.

The Alpha’s Dirty Little Secret

The Alpha’s Dirty Little Secret

Maya looked. There was no sky. Not anymore. Manhattan was hanging upside down above them, a skeletal ruin of gray stone and broken metal pinned against a ceiling of churning amber clouds. They were standing on the new skin of the Earth, a world of bone-trees and violet rivers, while the old world rotted in the rafters. "We're in the core," Maya whispered.

The Twins He Never Knew

The Twins He Never Knew

​When they emerged, the world had changed again. ​The grey, ash-choked sky of the Sterling blockade was a memory. The "Sky-Wild"—the millions of green-veined drones—had woven themselves into a living canopy that spanned the entire horizon. They were no longer individual machines; they were the Foliage of the Atmosphere.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Weight of Our Sky' hit me like a freight train the first time I read it. It's set during the 1969 racial riots in Kuala Lumpur, following Melati, a music-loving teen with OCD who's convinced her mother will die if she doesn't perform certain rituals. The author, Hanna Alkaf, doesn't just write about historical events—she makes you feel the suffocating fear of that time through Melati's eyes. What struck me hardest was how the story balances brutal reality with tenderness, like when Melati bonds with a Chinese boy despite the racial tensions tearing their city apart. It's one of those books that lingers in your bones afterward.

What makes it special is how it handles mental health representation. Melati's OCD isn't just a quirk—it's portrayed with raw honesty, showing how her compulsions escalate amidst the chaos. I found myself holding my breath during scenes where she counts patterns to keep 'the Djinn' (her name for OCD) at bay. The way music becomes her lifeline, especially Beatles songs, adds this beautiful layer of resilience. It's rare to find historical fiction that feels so immediate and personal while tackling such heavy themes with grace.
