The Suspension Bridge Effect

Finn Harker didn’t ask for much out of life. A quiet corner, a stable future, and maybe a dog one day. Instead, he got a scholarship to Voltaire Prep, one of the most elite schools in Athena City—a place so wealthy it feels like another planet. And now he’s leaving behind his sleepy hometown to spend senior year surrounded by designer uniforms, private drivers, and kids who’ve never checked a price tag in their lives. It’s overwhelming. It’s ridiculous. It’s definitely not Finn’s scene. But it’s also where he reunites with Martino Bertelli and Adrik Volkov, his childhood best friends who vanished into this glittering world years ago. As Finn gets pulled into their orbit—and their families’ strange, extravagant, and oddly affectionate chaos—he begins to realize that maybe he can belong somewhere… even if it’s not where he expected. Voltaire Prep is absurd. Athena City is insane. But Finn? He’s the chaos gremlin they never knew they needed. A story about friendship, found family, late-night rooftop talks, and learning to be okay with who you are—even when everything around you is louder, shinier, and much, much richer.

She thought she was free. Until a billionaire and his daughter saw her — and decided she was theirs. One wanted a wife. The other wanted a mother. Neither asked if she agreed. They watched her for two years. Followed her every move. Until one day, they flew across the world and bought her future — with smiles, paperwork, and charm that smelled like roses but felt like chains. Now, she sleeps in silk sheets she didn’t choose. Wears clothes she didn’t buy. Answers to a name she didn’t earn. Every touch is a test. Every night is a transaction. And every whispered “I love you” is a warning. She hides pills beneath her tongue. She dreams of running. But there is no escape — only a cage made of wealth, obsession, and unbearable intimacy. Because he doesn’t just want her body. He wants her compliance. Her mind. Her loyalty. Her womb. And when the daughter discovers the truth — she doesn’t cry. She accuses. Now the doors are locked. The smiles are gone. And the only thing more terrifying than being watched… is being needed. This isn’t love. This is possession with a wedding ring. This is family, twisted into obsession. This is what happens when a girl becomes the answer to someone else's madness.

They do not belong to each other. They are... Nexus.

"Your world is about to change." A voice whispered to me. I turned around but everywhere was dark and I couldn't make anything or anyone out. "Who is there?" I called out into the darkness. "I'm a friend Arin, no need to be frightened." The soft voice called out to me. "What do you want with me?" I questioned, my senses on high alert as I could feel the person moving around me in circles. "I don't want anything from you. I'm here to help you." The woman revealed and my brows furrowed in confusion. "Help me?" I asked. Arin is an omega born into the Bloodfang Pack, a role she’s long accepted but never fully embraced. Growing up with her best friend Siena, who dreams of becoming Luna, Arin has always been overlooked and dismissed by those around her, especially the Alpha’s sons, the triplets Kael, Jaxon, and Rowan. However, on her 18th birthday, everything shifts when Arin learns that her mate bond has been forged with one of the triplets. The triplets, each with their own distinct personalities and goals, are drawn into a tangled web of competition, love, and duty. Arin’s bond shifts between them, causing tension and uncertainty within the Pack. But Arin’s journey takes an unexpected turn when she learns of her true heritage: she is the descendant of an ancient royal bloodline, and her powers are linked to the Moonwell, the Pack’s most sacred and powerful source of life. As the Moonwell begins to fade, Arin’s destiny is revealed. Only she can restore the Moonwell and save the Pack, but doing so means losing her mate bond forever. The battle for the Pack’s future escalates when a betrayal leads to a civil war, and one of the triplets sacrifices himself to protect Arin and restore balance. With the Pack’s survival hanging by a thread, Arin must face the harsh reality of her choices and what it means to lead.

Noel Arden just wants to disappear. As a member of a prestigious and influential family known for producing powerful espers and guides, Noel’s D classification is an embarrassment. Determined to work as a guide despite his father’s opposition, Noel spends his days in the D-suite of Halo, the largest, most successful Paradigm agency in the country, keeping his head down and enduring the less pleasant aspects of his job. It’s not a bad life; he likes his coworkers, he doesn’t have to rely on his increasingly hostile father, and he’s almost never deployed to Fray sites. As long as he steers clear of his S-class esper half-brother, he can just melt into the background and pretend to be a normal, low level guide, just one of hundreds in Halo’s bottom ranks. Invisible and unremarkable. Exactly the way he wants it. Then an emergency situation during an unexpected deployment forces Noel to shatter his quiet, boring life with his own hands and thrusts him directly into the notoriety he’s worked so hard to avoid. When he witnesses Jade Ransom, Halo’s star esper and one of the only S-classes in the country, melting down from corruption overload, Noel has no choice but to use the ability he swore to never reveal in order to save both Jade and the city from destruction. Jade, desperate after a life of guiding intolerance, latches onto Noel as the only guide he’s ever properly synced with and insists on being exclusive partners. With his back against the wall and his pesky conscience whispering in his ear, Noel agrees. Struggling to balance his secret, his normal job, and his connection to Jade, Noel finds the stable life he worked so hard to build crumbling around him. And as he and Jade grow closer, Noel has to reckon with the vast differences between them and decide if he’s prepared to burn himself out just to let Jade shine. #GUIDEVERSE #ESPER #SLOWBURN [ADULT LANGUAGE AND SUBJECT MATTER]

Some say that if you search long enough, you can find the ones you’ve lost. But not every path is meant to be walked. Not every door should be opened. And not every guide wears a human face. Beyond the storm lies a place where the living brush against the forgotten. There are paths made of thread, bridges of silence, and houses that remember. But the price of finding what was lost may be losing yourself entirely. And some bridges, once crossed, never let you back. That's a little spooky, isn't it? Hehe!

The year is 2025. The educational world has changed drastically over the past 25 years. Schools have strict policies that prohibit any form of violence or bullying. Even the smallest hint of aggression results in immediate suspension. Or at least, that’s how it’s meant to be... But despite all of this, below the surface of just physically fighting, bullying still exists in other forms. From forcing others to do homework, giving answers, demanding food, or even getting them to break the rules—these are all traits of a bully. Yet, these so-called "bullies" disguise themselves as "friends" and put on an act when teachers are around. The truth is, even the teachers are victims. I used to be one of their victims, but not anymore...
