Wisnu tak pernah menyangka bahwa pekerjaannya di sebuah toko roti akan membawanya ke sebuah pulau terpencil—tempat di mana laut biru berkilauan, angin membawa aroma asin, dan kehidupan berjalan dengan aturan yang jauh berbeda dari yang ia kenal. Di antara adonan yang mengembang dan senyum ramah penduduk lokal, ia berpikir bahwa ini hanyalah sebuah awal baru yang sederhana. Namun, ia segera menyadari bahwa pulau ini menyimpan lebih dari sekadar ketenangan. Dua suku utama, Ranaha dan Vahaya, telah lama terikat dalam hubungan yang rapuh. Dan kini, ketegangan itu semakin mendidih, memuncak di Festival Baranthaka—sebuah tradisi yang seharusnya menjadi ajang pelepasan, namun justru berubah menjadi pemicu tragedi. Dua putri dari masing-masing suku, Riana dari Ranaha dan Vaya dari Vahaya, berdiri di dua sisi pertentangan yang berbeda. Keduanya memiliki kepentingan, ambisi, dan rahasia mereka sendiri. Dan entah bagaimana, Wisnu mendapati dirinya terjebak di antara mereka. Ketika darah tertumpah dan peraturan yang tak tertulis dilanggar, Wisnu dihadapkan pada pilihan: tetap menjadi orang luar yang hanya menyaksikan dari kejauhan, atau melangkah ke dalam kekacauan yang kian tak terhindarkan—tanpa jaminan bahwa ia bisa keluar dengan selamat.

At the Westlake University, Eleanore Salvacion and Santiago Alcaraz have spent years at war-academic titans, intellectual equals, and sworn enemies. They're obsessed with outscoring each other, pushing harder, being better. The rivalry is their everything-until it starts turning into something else. Because if they're supposed to hate each other, then why does Ellie notice the way Sanjo's jaw clenches when she beats him on an exam? Why does Sanjo feel a sick sort of thrill every time she glares at him in a lecture hall? And why does their rivalry feel less like competition and more like foreplay? First, it was grades. Then, it was bodies. Now, it’s something far worse—because rivalry has a way of bleeding into obsession. And no matter how many times they try to walk away, the effect remains: they are each other’s greatest competition… and their greatest downfall. [18+]

This series exists for the purpose of practicing my imagination skills. I will not write anything unless I do so it with complete immersion and realistic graphics from within my head. If I end up rushing myself, I will stop and start until I can maintain a highly intense emotion from beginning to end. Whether or not these stories end up having consistency or are random moments that may seem like nothing at an outsider's glance, they will all be significant memories to me. Through these experiences, I should be capable of being truly creative and passionate at that, not just being able to perfectly fake creativity like I have been for the past couple of years in the name of 'efficiency'.
