BURIED TRUTH

When Tayo, a young domestic worker, arrives at the grand Onyeka estate, she believes she has found an opportunity to change her life. But beneath the polished floors and elegant chandeliers, the house harbors dark secrets—secrets that its owners are desperate to keep buried. At the heart of the mystery is Madam Adaora, the powerful matriarch of the Onyeka family, whose unwavering control over the household masks a past she would rather forget. Her husband, Dr. Dapo Onyeka, a respected surgeon, carries a silent burden of guilt that threatens to unravel everything they have built. Chidi, the family's driver, has worked for them long enough to know that perfection comes at a price—and that price might be too high for anyone who digs too deep. As Tayo settles into her duties, she begins to notice the cracks in the family’s perfect image. Strange whispers in the night, locked doors that no one dares to open, and the suffocating silence around Nneka Onyeka, a girl whose name is never mentioned. A hidden journal in the pantry leads Tayo down a dangerous path, revealing Nneka's chilling final words and an ominous reference to something buried in the garden. Meanwhile, Madam Ngozi, a watchful neighbor, has seen too much over the years. She knows the Onyeka family is hiding something, but even she hesitates to uncover the truth. And Chidi, torn between his loyalty and his conscience, knows that the moment Tayo starts asking questions, she is putting herself in grave danger. As Tayo pieces together fragments of a long-buried crime, the walls of the Onyeka estate begin to close in. The secrets of the past claw their way to the surface, threatening to destroy everyone involved. The truth behind Nneka's disappearance, the night of the storm, and the whispers about the locked basement all lead to one harrowing conclusion: Some truths refuse to stay buried. But as Tayo soon realizes, those who uncover the past may not live to tell it.

Fire Mage

John Browning, a former underworld assassin, went to his friend Angele's wedding party but ended up meeting his former colleagues. Before he could think that the whole wedding ceremony was a setup to catch him, he felt dizzy all of a sudden! At that moment, he knew that his lifelong friend had already betrayed him and sold him out. John was humiliated in front of hundreds of people and was forced to kneel in front of Thomas, the underworld assassin organization leader. Within a few minutes, they beat him brutally, dragged him to some underground basement, and then locked him in a gloomy room. John felt bitter when thinking about his friend's betrayal. He laid on the cold floor for two days and died miserably. But his story didn't end there. … In a world filled with magic and mystic powers, John Browning woke up in an 18-year-old boy's body. Before he could open his eyes and see his current situation, he felt someone was dragging his body. 'How am I still alive?' He got puzzled inside. But after a few seconds, John learned from the young boy's remanent memories that he was transmigrated to a mystical fantasy game-like world filled with magic and mystic powers! [Author's Note: The Mc will take some time to walk on the path of a fire mage due to less information about the world. So, don't get mad at me guys.

From Zero to Stardom: The Radiant Rebirth

Charlie is a nobody. In the small, forgettable town of Maplewood, Charlie barely exists. His days are spent in a haze of lethargy, slumped on a basement couch that smells faintly of regret. His body, soft and bloated, seems to mirror the weight of his apathy—a monument to years of bad decisions and the crushing inertia of laziness. His parents look at him with disappointment, his classmates avoid him like a bad smell, and the girls, even the kind ones, can barely disguise their pity. He’s bullied, mocked, and ignored, but Charlie doesn’t care. Not really. Or so he tells himself. Until one day, a moment so small and humiliating it shouldn’t matter tears open the carefully constructed wall of indifference he’s built around himself. For the first time in years, Charlie feels something stir deep inside—a spark of something raw, terrifying, and undeniable. Then, one night, everything changes. A system appears, a voice in his mind that speaks of transformation, power, and redemption. It offers him a choice: to stay as he is and sink deeper into the void of his existence, or to rise—literally—and reshape himself, body and soul. The system promises him a path, but it won’t be easy. To shed the weight of his old self, Charlie must first face the physical and emotional burdens he’s carried for so long. The path is brutal, filled with trials that test his mind, body, and spirit. But as Charlie begins to claw his way out of the pit of mediocrity, he discovers a world beyond Maplewood—a world of incredible challenges, impossible bodies, and a system that rewards transformation. The ultimate prize? A body forged by effort, determination, and resilience—a body of iron, plasma, and even the golden brilliance of the sun. But each step comes with its own cost, and the system’s promises may hide more than they reveal. Can Charlie rise above the weight of his past, or will the weight of the world crush him once and for all?

Dark Amongst Us

*Thud* *Thud* Sounded through the door. It was late at midnight when the family of the three woke by the noise. It was dark all around, the sound of rain splashes through everywhere. Due to the rain, the electricity of the City was cut off. "Who might be this late," Said the man, in the '40s. He was the only earner of this family, supporting his wife and their only daughter. His name was 'Reez Mosce'. "What happened dear, w-who would knock this late," Said his wife 'Riza'. Taking the shotgun in his hand, he gestured toward his wife and said, "Take Ellie through the basement". 'WHAT ABOUT YOU!!!' She wanted to ask him. But seeing his grave expression, she couldn't help. She could only look at him with concern filling her eyes. Reez replied as his gaze somewhat softened toward his wife, "Go away Riza hide in the basement with Emily" 'The Unknown' randomly happened every day. The murder reports that news announced to them, the people wanted it all to be false, they wanted to continue with their peaceful life. *** The sound of thud was getting erratic on the door. The door hinges broke off from the wall. Reez held the shotgun aiming toward the door. His condition was not so good, his legs were trembling as he gulped a mouthful of saliva. He was scared shitless, but he couldn't show it to his family. He was the moral support for them. *Crash* The door crashed showing a figure as it stood in the rain. The raindrops splattered across the front wetting the sofa and the tables. Ellie watched as the fire raged through the house.
