Stalker Fantasma (English Version) The story blends fantasy and reality, aimed at readers over the age of 16 and containing sensitive content for some. There is horror and delicate themes that the narrative explores. The plot centers around a family with hidden secrets and a teenager named Pablo, who ends up dealing with a stalker. This stalker will lead Pablo to better understand his family’s secrets. It is a story that addresses spirituality, teaching that we are all spirits and that the greatest value in life lies in love and the ability to understand others. The book addresses the diversity of genders and sexual orientations, not limited to the heterosexual standard. It explains that a person's sexuality does not define their spirituality or character, as LGBTQIA+ people can also be loving, virtuous, and spiritually evolved. One of the explanations offered is that homosexuality may be an expression of the sexuality of someone who reincarnates in a body different from their previous gender. This does not mean that the person is "inferior" or "sinful"; it merely represents the diversity of the human experience. The text strongly emphasizes the need to respect and love all people, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Prejudice and discrimination are seen as primitive attitudes and signs of spiritual delay. Furthermore, it is mentioned that some homosexual mediums may have greater ease in connecting with higher spirits due to their sensitivity and affability. An important point is that sexuality does not define a person's spiritual health. Vices, hatred, pride, and arrogance are seen as far more harmful than homosexuality or bisexuality. It is also highlighted that parents should love and accept their LGBTQIA+ children just as they would their heterosexual children, as all are equal in the eyes of God. Pedro Henrique writes this book to show the importance of overcoming societal prejudice and ideologies. Love is the purest essence of happiness; neither time nor distance can break the true meaning of love. The book highlights how important it is to accept others as they feel best, teaches forgiveness, and shows that everyone has their own perspective on life. However, respect is essential. This book is dedicated to the mysteries between life and death, as we often forget that one day we are born and that one day we will leave this plane. I ask you a question: if you had the chance to be born multiple times to correct a mistake, would you do it?

"Sir, only one of the twins is yours. It's the alpha boy, the younger of the two, please." The doctor said. "What?! How?" Everyone exclaimed.

Shocking Everyone in the room and those streaming and watching live, all the more. But Sienna was the most shocked of them all. ** SYNOPSIS: 33-year-old beta, Sienna Quinn, found out that she was pregnant for her ex-lover of eight years just a few weeks to his engagement to another woman.

And from where should she even start searching for the unknown father of her other baby? What happens then, when this particular child becomes the only thing standing in Noah's way of becoming the Alpha's heir? ********************** Note: This author would not give warnings for any scene in the book.

It's been all those years, the blue seas has turned to mulburry feilds , I shall show this world how far have i come.

(Versão em Português) A história mistura fantasia e realidade, sendo destinada a maiores de 16 anos e contendo conteúdos sensíveis para alguns. Há terror e temas delicados que a narrativa aborda. A trama fala sobre uma família com segredos ocultos e um adolescente chamado Pablo, que acaba tendo que lidar com um perseguidor. Esse perseguidor levará Pablo a entender melhor os segredos de sua família. É uma história que aborda espiritualidade, ensinando que todos somos espíritos e que o maior valor da vida está no amor e na capacidade de entender o outro. O texto enfatiza fortemente a necessidade de respeitar e amar todas as pessoas, independentemente de sua orientação sexual ou identidade de gênero. O preconceito e a discriminação são vistos como atitudes primitivas e de atraso espiritual. Inclusive, é mencionado que alguns médiuns homossexuais podem ter mais facilidade em se conectar com espíritos elevados devido à sua sensibilidade e afabilidade. O livro aborda a diversidade de gêneros e orientações sexuais, não se limitando apenas ao padrão heterossexual. Explica que a sexualidade de uma pessoa não define sua espiritualidade ou caráter, pois pessoas LGBTQIA+ também podem ser amorosas, virtuosas e evoluídas espiritualmente. Uma das explicações oferecidas é que a homossexualidade pode ser uma expressão da sexualidade de alguém que reencarna em um corpo diferente do seu gênero anterior. Isso não significa que a pessoa seja "inferior" ou "pecadora", apenas representa a diversidade da experiência humana. Uma importante colocação é que a sexualidade não define a saúde espiritual de alguém. Vícios, ódio, orgulho e arrogância são vistos como muito mais prejudiciais do que a homossexualidade ou bissexualidade. Também é ressaltado que pais devem amar e aceitar seus filhos LGBTQIA+ da mesma forma que os filhos heterossexuais, pois todos são iguais perante Deus. Pedro Henrique escreve este livro para mostrar a importância de vencer as barreiras dos preconceitos e ideologias impostas pela sociedade. O amor é a mais pura essência da felicidade; nem o tempo nem a distância podem quebrar o verdadeiro significado do amor. O livro ressalta o quanto é importante aceitar o próximo da maneira como ele se sente melhor, ensina a perdoar e mostra que cada pessoa tem seu próprio ponto de vista na vida. No entanto, é essencial ter respeito. Este livro é dedicado aos mistérios entre a vida e a morte, pois muitas vezes esquecemos que um dia nascemos e que um dia iremos partir deste plano. Eu lhe faço uma pergunta: se você tivesse a chance de nascer várias vezes para consertar um erro, você o consertaria?
