This one hums in the spaces between.

It watches too closely. And sometimes... it craves blood. Is Luis in danger—or is he part of something bigger? Who is the real monster? Read Feeling Human to uncover the truth.

A teenage boy finds himself stuck between two worlds-his past and his uncertain future. He's not homesick or broken. He's just... lost. As he navigates a quiet life, where nothing feels right, he begins questioning everything: what life is, why we live, and how we're supposed to survive in a world that doesn't make sense. Through silent hallways, lonely park benches, and disconnected classrooms, he searches not just for meaning-but for someone who understands. A reflective, slow-burn light novel exploring identity, isolation, and the quiet thoughts most of us keep buried.

After years of living under flashing lights and screaming fans, popstar Lydia escapes to the countryside, desperate to breathe, to write, to be herself again. No more shows. No more cameras. Just quiet mornings and coffee on the porch. But quiet doesn’t last long. Next door lives Ravi—tall, unreadable, and frustratingly gorgeous. He’s got the looks of a fallen angel and the mood of a stormcloud, with a past he keeps tightly locked away. He barely speaks, barely smiles… and barely notices the popstar living one door over. Which only makes Lydia more curious. As flirtation sparks into tension and secrets begin to surface, Lydia must decide if falling for someone who doesn’t want to be seen… is worth being truly seen for the first time. ————— Check out my Gacha Life version of this story, called All Eyes But Yours: Gacha Life Series!

Have you ever how the 'unique quest chains' are born, how 'mega-rare super-items' just drop out of thin air, and why every random minor character in the starting village is a hidden expert? I am the reason. I am the silently curshing ghost ofthe machine running cogs of 'secret quests', the plot-driving device of destiny, the shepherd to the millions of players that just KNOW that every stone holds a unique opportunity for loot, lore and skills. I am a sole Admin of the greatest DMMO-RPG, partialy AI and a man who holds the great responsibility overseeing the life of the game... With a slight problem though. The game was destroyed a week before it's start. Completely. So now there is no game. There are players, me and million of cheap tricks I honed in my life for the single goal of proving to all of you, that... This game definitely does exist. --- First of all, I post this book on my Patreon. 18 chapters of this book are there - for 3$ it's all yours... Though, of course, I will be posting it for free on this site too. Except I first post them on my Patreon - so now 1 chapter is here - and 19 are there. When it would have 10 chapters here? 28 chapters are there. So... You know? You can support my life there for 18 chapters ahead of the curve. I will be very grateful!

Rae never meant to fall for her best friend. But when it’s Silas — sharp, radiant, untouchable Silas — it’s impossible not to. They met in high school, bonded through a school group project and never left each other’s side since. Silas was warm, magnetic, always pulling people toward her without even trying. Rae? She was the quiet one. The observer. And slowly, helplessly, she became the girl who fell in love with her best friend — the girl who could never say it out loud. Because everyone thought Silas liked someone else. And that someone else was the girl Rae once helped her get closer to. The one Rae used to cheer for, even when it hurt. Silas swore there was nothing between them — not once, but many times. But Rae saw it. Saw how close they were. Saw everything she wasn’t. So Rae stayed silent. Pretending. Smiling. Laughing. Carrying a love too heavy for seventeen. She made herself a quiet promise: If graduation comes, and they part ways — if they never see each other again — she’ll tell Silas the truth. But just when Rae begins to prepare for goodbye, the universe throws something unexpected their way: a chance to be alone. To be closer. To be something more. Now Rae is caught between the love she’s hidden for too long, and the terrifying possibility that Silas might have been waiting, too. A queer coming-of-age story about best friends, blurred lines, quiet promises, and the moment everything shifts. For anyone who's ever loved their best friend — silently, fiercely, and maybe… not in vain.

Siapakah aku? Aku sudah lupa jawaban dari pertanyaan itu sejak lama. Sejak aku melarikan diri dari rumah itu, begitu putus asa untuk melarikan diri, aku pergi hanya dengan pakaian di tubuh dan kaos kaki di kakiku. Setelah hari itu, aku hanya berjalan dengan sepatu yang kucuri. Apakah aku seorang gadis yang mencari makna hidup dalam pelukan pria tanpa wajah? Mereka semua begitu mudah dilupakan. Sampai dia datang. Dia membawaku ke bawah air terjun dan membuatku lupa akan namaku, dan sebagai balasannya, aku mengambil namanya. Enzo Vitale. Seorang pria misterius yang hanya akan mencintai lautan dalam. Atau lebih tepatnya predator yang menghuninya. Ternyata, dia tidak berbeda dari monster yang dia beri makan. Dia memikatku ke kapalnya seperti seekor ikan di lautan, mencari pembalasan atas kejahatanku. Jika saja aku menyadari niatnya, dan bahwa badai besar akan membuat kami terdampar, aku pasti sudah lari. Sekarang, aku adalah seorang gadis yang mencari perlindungan di mercusuar reyot bersama seorang pria yang membenciku hampir sama besarnya dengan hasratnya padaku. Dia ingin menyakitiku, tetapi penjaga tua pulau yang ditinggalkan mungkin memiliki niat yang jauh lebih mengerikan. Ini bukan lagi pertanyaan tentang siapa aku, melainkan, akankah aku bertahan hidup?
