Leaves Are Brown Sky Is Grey

I woke up in a cold, prison cell injured and with no memories, only the echo of a name I couldn't place and a pair of storm-dark eyes, haunting my dreams. He told me that I am his queen. That I belonged to him. King Vesperian, the enigmatic king with a smile like sin and a gaze that unraveled me. He pulled me from the shadows and draped me in silks and jewels, swearing I was safe, cherished… loved. But if I was his, why did it feel like I was being watched, studied, played? In a palace wrapped in beauty and secrets, I walk the line between fantasy and fear, drawn to a husband who feels like both protector and captor. The court whispers, the walls close in, and with every fleeting memory that returns, I’m forced to wonder: is this a second chance at love—or the beginning of a dangerous game I already lost once?

Title: The Brown Book Synopsis: In the city of Ikeja, Lagos, strange deaths began happening. There seemed to be a serial killer on the loose, but the strange part was that only wealthy families were targeted. No members of the families survived; they all died. It took some time for people to realize that the killer was not choosing victims at random, but following a specific pattern. A girl from the Fadeyi family called Linda began to have the fear that her family might become next someday and her family also had the same fear which made them boost their security measures. The Fadeyis are one of the richest families in Lagos and Nigeria as a whole, known for having several large business complexes and real estate properties, as well as the Fadeyi Business Enterprise, which deals in the sales of manufactured foods that they make. Two years later, it was Linda's 18th birthday and the strange deaths had not occurred for a long time. It could have been that the serial killer decided to stop his killing spree, but could that really be so? A lot of wealthy and high-class people attended Linda's birthday party. A lot of gifts were given to her that day, each one with the givers' names and birthday wishes attached. At the end of the day, as Linda was unwrapping her gifts in her room, she was shocked to find a mysterious gift that had no name or wishes on it. Curious, she carefully unwrapped it and found a brown, hardcover book inside. Upon opening the book, she noticed that the names of all the families that the serial killer had killed were written in red ink and marked, and hers was the last name on the list, which remained unmarked. The opposite page had a message on it that read: "Happy last birthday, Linda. I hope you appreciate the gift of awareness that I have given you. Through this book, you have become aware that you and your family are next to meet their end. Sometimes, awareness can be a very valuable gift. So, I hope you value my gift. I would advise you to be careful, but no matter how careful you are, it will not save you and your family from me. Don't worry, I will bring a much better gift at your death day." With this, fear overwhelmed Linda. The question is, how will Linda handle the situation and who is the mysterious owner of the brown book? Will she be able to save herself and her family from them? As the story continues, all will be revealed.
