The name awakens something deep within her, a forgotten connection to a past she cannot remember. With the enigmatic and menacing Thane claiming to know her, and Kai, her steadfast protector, by her side, Isla is thrust into a whirlwind of mystery, danger, and unspoken truths. As they seek refuge, their bond strengthens, but shadows lurk around every corner. A quiet café offers momentary safety, but the presence of an unknown figure watching them in the distance sends a chill down their spines. The deeper they dive into the mystery, the clearer it becomes that they are being followed, hunted by forces they do not yet understand. With danger closing in and secrets unraveling, Isla and Kai must uncover the truth before the past catches up with them. But as memories resurface and identities blur, one question remains—who is Isla really, and why does Thane refuse to let her go?

Authors side note: I may not release a chapter daily, doesn't mean I dropped the book. Good books take time, not to tune my own horn but it's true. I'll release a minimum of 4 times a week cause life makes me busy. Also, 36k words before locked chapters, might seem early but that's what can I say. Thank you for understanding. #darkcomedy #psychological #strategy #zombies #survival there would be one more tag here but it would be a spoiler :)

Happy Ever After Midnight is what would happen if a fairy tale was written for and by the LGBTQ+ community. It tells the story of a fairy godmother whose latest assigned princess is proving more complicated than planned.

November 17th. A day that should have been ordinary became the day the world fell apart. The Collapse—a disaster unlike any other—destroyed over 80% of the population in a single stroke. Entire cities were reduced to ruins, the rules of nature were rewritten, and strange, otherworldly forces began to seep into the cracks of reality. Those who survived were left to navigate a world where power comes at a price, and despair looms around every corner. Silas Grayson was a man who always preferred the background, someone who never sought the limelight. But when the Collapse shattered the world, it shattered Silas’s quiet existence, too. Now, in a reality that demands action, he must navigate a landscape where ruins grant strange Authorities, rulers thrive on corruption, and whispers of beings far beyond human understanding begin to surface. As he ventures deeper into this harsh new world, Silas clings to hope—a fragile, flickering light in the darkness. But when despair threatens to crush even that, he must grapple with the question: How does a man hold on to hope in a world that seems designed to take it away? The Collapse didn’t just destroy the world—it created a new one. And surviving it will demand more than Silas ever thought he could give.

Two months ago, I found myself deeply involved in what I thought was a promising investment opportunity. I was excited and optimistic about the potential returns. Unfortunately, my enthusiasm quickly turned to despair when I discovered that the investment company I had trusted was nothing more than a sophisticated scam. Initially, everything seemed legitimate. The company was well-organized, its website looked professional, and the brokers were persuasive. I invested a significant amount—AUD 45,000 in Bitcoin—believing it was a wise decision. I was confident that my investment would yield substantial returns. However, things began to unravel when I requested a withdrawal of my profits. At first, everything seemed normal. I filled out the necessary forms and anticipated receiving my returns. To my dismay, the company started asking for additional fees and commissions before processing my withdrawal. I was skeptical and hesitant but eventually paid the requested amounts, hoping it would resolve the situation. Unfortunately, the demands didn’t stop there. The company continued to come up with new excuses and additional charges, trying to extract even more money from me. Despite my growing frustration, I initially tried to comply, believing it was the only way to recover my investment. However, when they started inventing even more fees and excuses, I decided enough was enough. I refused to pay any more money, standing firm on my decision not to send another dime until I received my initial investment and profits. As time went on, the broker who had initially introduced me to this company stopped responding to my messages. Despite my repeated attempts to reach out, my messages were read but never replied to. It became clear that I had been completely cut off and left in the dark. Desperate for a solution, I began searching for help online. That’s when I came across Hack Buster Recovery. I was skeptical at first, having been duped once already, but I needed to try anything to recover my investment. After reaching out to Hack Buster Recovery, I was surprised to find them professional and dedicated to their work.

"It’s official. Death wants an heir." The announcement sent shockwaves through all realms. Who was worthy to inherit the throne of the Almighty? Debates raged as curiosity sparked fierce discussions. Mikhael, an ordinary human, had no stake in this—until he received an unexpected visitor. “Congratulations. You are Death’s son.” Hel’s words turned his world upside down. “What the hell is that supposed to mean?” “It means you get to work for me—for free. The perks? Rent-free living, one rest day a year, and a guaranteed meal every day. Sounds nice, right?” Hel clapped her hands excitedly, as if she were offering the deal of a lifetime. Mikhael was stunned. This was blatant slavery disguised as destiny. “No thanks. I like my life as it is.” “Too bad.” Hel gave a dramatic pause. “Either you work for me, or death follows you—forever.” Trapped between two of the worst choices in history, Mikhael had no idea what power awaited him. One path led to servitude, the other to something far worse. But could he defy Hel’s terms and come out on top, or would he end up as nothing more than her pawn?

In a post-apocalyptic world, you'll find four main types of people. Those who fight with all their might "the hunters." The ones who leech and exploit others "the pests." The predators, who see everyone as prey. And lastly, we have "the survivors," the resilient ones who never give up. Everyone often fits into one category, but it's hard to determine which one Maya falls into. She's not exactly a fighter, considering leaving her room was a chore even before the apocalypse. A predator? No way—she's always been a pushover. You might think she's a survivor, but that's laughable. She'd rather die from starvation than resort to scavenging. So, how should we categorize her? leeche? Nope. Perhaps a new category is needed: "The Lost"—those struggling to find their place in a shattered world."

Anna Maria was perfect. Gabrielle Nandia was not. Anna Maria had the sweetest of smiles, with a presence that purified upon arrival. Gabrielle did not. She was always alone and gloomy, and the only thing that followed her were bad rumors. That day, Anna Maria was in a bad mood and wanted to eat alone. She glanced out of the window from the cafeteria. Outside, a figure sat under the tree, eating. Every bite was framed with a resplendent expression, which shone so brightly it blinded her. There was no smile, but the expression shown was as ephemeral as ice, melting before one could fully grasp the allure of its sweetness. Anna Maria blinked, scrubbing her eyes and readjusting her glasses to make sure of what she had seen, but the occupant had left before she could tell who it was. She searched for a week and finally found her—Gabrielle Nandia. She grasped the palm of the startled girl with a bewitching smile. "Gabrielle, will you please be my muse?"

I woke up in a dark dungeon, my body screaming in agony, reeking of death. The air was thick with decay, each breath clawing at my throat. My mind was blank, a hollow void. "Who am I?" I whispered, but no answer came. Stumbling into the world beyond, I was greeted by thick fog and cold silence. The ground was littered with gutted bodies and shattered swords—fragments of lives lost to battles I couldn’t begin to understand. The monsters I’d killed to get here felt like a prelude to something worse. I couldn’t stop wondering about the stories behind the broken swords, the fallen warriors. Maybe my own story lay hidden among them. They say curiosity killed the cat. I can only hope my curiosity ends up killing me too.

"Genevieve, don't you get it?" Jonathan's voice was laced with a hint of frustration, his words cutting through the air like a sharp blade. "I don't love you, and I never have," he continued, his tone devoid of emotion, leaving Genevieve's heart shattered into a million pieces. "Jonathan, wait... what do you mean?"
