Sweeping Him Off His Feet

Warning… Matured content!! "You," Augustine began, his voice firm and direct. "I'm making you an offer: we get married, immediately. This isn't a request, it's a demand." Augustine's uttered with a piercing gaze. Charles scoffed. “What type of bullshit is that?” He fired back. *** Augustine Wales is a cold CEO who is known as the most successful and influential business man in Country H. His name alone commanded respect, his steely gaze and cold demeanor strike fear into even the most hardened of hearts. He was a man of few words, each syllable weighted with the power of his position. On the eve of Augustine Wales 29th birthday, he received an unexpected call from his family, their demands clear and uncompromising: find a spouse, or forfeit your stake in the family's vast wealth and influence. In that very moment after receiving the phone call, the gaze of Augustine fell upon a young man named Charles Donald and without thinking twice, Augustine immediately made a proposal to Charles, but was met with a swift rejection. Augustine's proposal was rooted in desperation but little did he know that fate was drawing him toward a future he never could have predicted. "What will happen when Augustine Wales, the powerful CEO, finds himself unexpectedly falling for Charles Donald, a humble cleaner in his office?" "When Charles' deadly secrets rise to the surface, will their fragile bond shatter, or will their love prove strong enough to weather the storm?"

The Outcast: The Shadow of The Wall

"As the Supreme Commander of The Wall, my duty is clear: to hold back the threats from the south—mutant monsters, ogres, cyclops, or... hopefully not... the return of the orcs. The kings and lords of Middle Earth do not care. To them, we are just a bunch of 'Outcasts,' exiled criminals and soldiers pushed to the margins. That’s fine. It's better if they stay out of our way. Corrupt politicians rarely care about real security." He looks down at the Outcast barracks below, where the central headquarters commands the entire Wall, separating the south from the main continent. Wisps of smoke rise from the kitchens, carrying the scent of salty, stale soup. The Outcasts atone for their sins or suppress their grief through dangerous missions in exchange for a few gold coins, following the rigorous standards set long ago. Such is life at The Wall. "I, Oldman, am not a religious man. But I interpret the legacy of past eras as a reminder: The world has never truly been at peace. The evil forces of all ages—fragments, orcs, or dragons—will always lurk. Humans, dwarves, elves, whoever they may be, could end up killing each other, driven by cunning deceit. And now, the only barrier holding back the southern threat is The Wall... and us, the Outcasts. Perhaps history will remember us as nameless heroes, or perhaps it will forget us. But as long as I stand here, I will not allow the monsters from the south and other darknesses to spread across the continent again." "I am Oldman... In a world that has cast us out, we stand amidst the darkness. We have no land, no name, only this path. We are the shadows behind this wall. We are the forgotten guardians of the world. We are the Outcasts, and we will endure, or die on our path."

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.
