Thriller

Shadows of the Savannah

In the bustling city of Lagos, Detective Ayo Daramola is no stranger to danger, but the "Ribbon Reaper" case has pushed him to his limits. A string of brutal murders has left the city paralyzed with fear, each victim marked by a chilling signature: a single red ribbon tied to their wrist. As the body count rises, the elusive killer begins to taunt Ayo directly, luring him into a deadly game of cat and mouse. When Ayo receives an anonymous message demanding a midnight meeting at the desolate Oju Irin Bridge, he is thrust deeper into the nightmare. The encounter leads him to a video of a terrified woman bound to a chair, her life hanging by a thread. Racing against time, Ayo deciphers a cryptic clue that points him to a rundown bar near the Apapa docks. But even as he rescues the victim, an explosion shatters the fragile victory, leaving Ayo with more questions than answers. As the investigation unfolds, Ayo must navigate a labyrinth of lies, corruption, and secrets buried deep within Lagos’ underbelly. The killer’s twisted motives remain shrouded in darkness, but one thing is clear: the Ribbon Reaper is always one step ahead. With each move, the stakes grow higher, and the lines between hunter and hunted blur. "Shadows in the Savannah" is a gripping thriller that combines the gritty reality of urban Nigeria with the relentless pace of a high-stakes murder investigation. As Ayo races to unmask the Ribbon Reaper, he must confront his own demons and the fragile line between justice and vengeance. Can he unravel the mystery before the killer’s next move, or will he become the final victim in the Reaper’s deadly game?

Architect of Ruin

It all began with an "Oh, SHIT" moment. Era is a child agent, gone rogue. Desperate to outrun her past (and shirk responsibility) she ditches work, runs away to an Italian monastery to soak up the sun, sip on God's fine Blood and stay far away from trouble. When she's transferred to a dreary covenant in rural North Yorkshire, she begrudgingly accepts the days of mindless sweeping and even more mindless daydreaming as karmic justice. She didn't expect fate had more in store: It was supposed to be just another dull night of reflection. But what she found instead made her blood run cold. A floating body—dead, yet pulsing with dark energy—hung above the altar, surrounded by her fellow nuns, their faces twisted in devotion. They weren’t praying. This was a supernatural human sacrifice, and Era was next. There was no running, no hiding. She had already been caught. And in that instant, Era accepted her fate. But she wasn’t ready to go down without a fight. Years of combat training surged through her veins, and she lashed out. That was a fatal mistake. Now she's triggered an apocalypse, and plunged into a world she never asked for—a realm of magic, madness, and mayhem—where nothing is what it seems, and every breath she takes is a fight for survival. Worse, the apocalypse she unleashed is only one piece of a far larger game. A war rages between the Illuminati—a secretive, shadowy order that seeks to bend the world to its will—and H.V.N, a mysterious resistance agency powers beyond her comprehension- and she's caught in the middle. To stay alive, she must become a Blessed—someone marked by the gods, granted immense power in exchange for a divine contract. The only problem? She has to prove her worth first. Tangled in a web of tales, lies and betrayal, Era must navigate this world alone, stop the apocalypse, end the Illuminati and somehow stay alive. An action-packed fantasy thriller colliding with the criminal underworld, this novel is laced with chaos, wrapped in sarcasm and sprinkled with just the right amount of blasphemy.

Lured by the Moon

Sebastian is called by many different names: lunatic, madman, crazy, and a monster.  
Pretending to be human is an effortless task; calculating and flirtatious is a mask he carries for centuries, playing with the lives of those around him as if they’re just a game. 
His closed heart never lets anyone in, keeping a distance from anyone except for his annoying family, who live and protect each other. Despite having a dysfunctional, crazy family yet being regarded with suspicion and dread, his heart longs for more.  
On that fateful night, he never thought it was possible for him to have another emotional connection.  
A young, feral boy carrying a hunter-knife is surrounded by blood, snow, and dead wolves in the forest. Why does his youthful body carry a grotesque canvas of scars like they tell a gruesome past? Why do his eyes carry a heavy burden that's too young for a human? Or is he a human in the first place? 
As he gets to know the bratty Atlas, who angers him and challenges him, test him to the limits. If it was anyone else, he would not hesitate sending them to their grave.  Soon, he would learn that Atlas carries a heavy, dark secret, where Sebastian had to look for an answer in Atlas's past and must decide if he's worth protecting.  ***

Re: Player

Being thrown into the game-world of [Call of the Black Magicians], Adam was forced to survive with no prior information. Except for his memories of the Game-World and his name, he did not have any memories of his previous life. But fret not, even though the Game-World had many perils and was on the verge of extinction at every next step, it also had its beauty and magic, one to die for. With the authority of [Player], he could save and restart until he achieved his desired result.  He could learn skills of the ‘NPCs’ and achieve the results like the ‘Players.’  He could literally solo the entire game world to achieve his desired results. Whether he wants to save the world or destroy it, he could do it… as many times as he wishes. Even the [Black Magicians] won’t be able to do anything about it… probably. But was it all there was to it? [Beta Version 0.1 will begin in 6 Months: 29 days: 23 Hours!] I guess not… … Description: In the World of Zarraf, their lives Gods, not all Gods are good and certainly none are without motives.  They rule the world’s 7 nations:  The Nation of Light and Sun The Nation of Water The Nation of Fire The Nation of Life The Nation of Earth The Nation of Moon The Nation of Wind Each ruled by a goddess that has their own stance in their ruling.  But that is only the first page of this world. The second page colors the Ancient Gods of Corruption, Rage, Curse, Death and Hate. The third belongs the Seven Sins’ Incarnations that are ready to succeed the Ancient Gods. The Fourth is of the Witches who stand against all Gods equally. And the Final Page colors the [Immortals] or otherwise known as [Players] that will be summoned to bring Chaos to this world. A World that was meant to be destroyed. Such is the fate of the world of Zarraf, as powers beyond the realm of mortals threaten the dynamic equilibrium of their existence. In the end, the world was prophesied to be destroyed by one cause or another. Nothing could prevent looming destruction… Or so... It was supposed to happen… … Hey, Author here to give a quick glance at a couple of things that are normally asked. Harem? Yes Romance? Yes System? Obviously Smut? Oh yes! Adventure RPG? Yes. Power Creeping? Not really. Overpowered? Depends on how you see it Smart MC? I guess so.  Wise MC? Yes Something you need to know before you read The MC has the ability to [Save] a point (there are some conditions), with which he can return in time. So basically, he is an immortal. Though that doesn’t make him invincible from the start, rather he grows by making correct choices. The World is dynamic and pretty much anything can happen anytime. (It’s just my way of saying that there will be twists… pretty much unexpected ones as well).  And then there will be solutions to those unexpected situations as well, depending upon the absurdity of it. (I won’t have any more plot armor since I gave him a pretty big buff of immortality, so everything will be connected and won’t just happen by luck. Everything will be cleared by the end of an arc, so you need to be patient before deciding on it.) It has a mix of everything. Thriller, Adventure, Action, Smut, Romance, Slice of Life, etc. so there is that as well. ……. [Mature Warning: This Novel Contains R-18 Content!] https://discord.gg/2swHXduWg3

Fragments of Me

Here's a detailed synopsis for "Fragments of Me" that highlights the key plot points, character arcs, and the mystery/thriller elements while maintaining the emotional core of the romance. --- Title: Fragments of Me Genre: High School Romance with Mystery/Thriller Elements Word Count: 90,000 Synopsis: Seventeen-year-old Elena Aster wakes up in a hospital bed with no memory of who she is. The only fragments she clings to are fleeting images of a burning car, a woman’s terrified voice screaming, “Run, Elena,” and the lingering sense that something is terribly wrong. After a tragic car accident that claimed her parents' lives, Elena is taken in by her uncle, Damian Aster, a charismatic and influential businessman whose seemingly perfect family hides cracks beneath the surface. Damian’s wife is distant, her cousin Nate treats her with hostility, and only her other cousin, Lucas, offers a friendly face in an unfamiliar world. Starting over at Bellrose High, Elena struggles to fit in, haunted by fragmented flashbacks and the gnawing suspicion that her accident wasn’t just an accident. When she crosses paths with the rebellious and sharp-tongued Jaxon Rivers in an unconventional encounter, sparks fly—but not the romantic kind. Jaxon, a scholarship student from the wrong side of town, has his own reasons for distrusting the wealthy elite. His father, once an accountant at Aster PLC Ltd., mysteriously disappeared while investigating financial misconduct tied to the Aster family. Jaxon believes Damian holds the key to his father’s fate, but he can’t prove it—yet. Their worlds collide when Elena witnesses Jaxon in a brutal fight at school. Despite her initial disdain for him, she finds herself drawn into his dangerous orbit after saving his life. As Elena’s flashbacks grow more vivid, she and Jaxon form an uneasy alliance to uncover the truth behind her parents’ deaths, her lost memories, and the dark secrets entwining their families. Digging deeper, they discover Damian’s double life as the enigmatic "Orion Black," the mastermind behind an embezzlement scheme, corporate fraud, and something far darker. Evidence suggests Damian orchestrated the car accident to seize control of the Aster fortune, but his crimes go beyond greed. Jaxon’s investigation reveals that his father might still be alive—or worse, trapped in a fate more sinister than death. As Elena and Jaxon unravel the tangled web of lies, they face betrayals from those closest to them. Nate’s hostility masks deep-rooted jealousy and fear of losing his privileged status. Damian manipulates Elena’s fragile trust, gaslighting her into doubting her instincts. Even Jaxon’s motives are clouded by a thirst for revenge. Yet amidst the chaos, Elena and Jaxon’s reluctant partnership evolves into something more—a fierce, undeniable connection born from shared pain, vulnerability, and the hope of healing. With danger closing in, Elena must confront the horrifying truth: her memories were stolen, her life manipulated, and the people she thought she could trust are her greatest enemies. In a pulse-pounding climax, she faces Damian, armed not just with evidence of his crimes but with the strength she’s found within herself. The girl who woke up broken becomes the young woman who fights back. But victory comes at a cost. As secrets shatter and blood is spilled, Elena learns that love can be both her greatest weapon and her deepest wound. In the end, "Fragments of Me" isn’t just about uncovering the past—it’s about reclaiming identity, embracing vulnerability, and finding hope in the fragments left behind.
