The Stranger Camus

Forebearer's Sight: Strangers Among Us

A young British child, Frederick, who was adopted by Portuguese sailors finds himself struggling for survival on the shores of West Africa. He soon discovered that the lands he found himself in were troubled by the aura of ancient cosmic darkness, Okunkun, that instilled hate against the indigenes of Africa in other races as their punishment for banishing it from its reign on the world. The remnants of Okunkun’s minions, Egbe Okunkun, commence a plot to bring back their glory days by attacking the Olodumare Festival, an iconic festival celebrated between the Yorubas, Igbos and Hausa in honour of their historic victory against Okunkun. Yet to recover from the shock of the attack, a mystical war broke out between the deities of Olodumare and the ancient Benin Kingdom when their spy, Warewa, discovered a secret slave trade allegiance between the Benin Kingdom, and Prince Henry the Navigator, son of a Portuguese Monarch, with Egbe Okunkun at the heart of it. Frederick gets caught in an unimaginable battle between the deities of Olodumare who swore to protect their people from Okunkun’s hate, the Benin kingdom, and Egbe Okunkun. Buoyed by their duty to prevent hate from destroying their land, the deities of Olodumare made it their duty to ensure that people from the outside world had no access to their lands. When Frederick’s presence on their land became known to them at the end of the battle, they were torn between letting him live, being a child, and the fear that he would succumb to the hate of Okunkun and be a danger to them all. Frederick builds a bond with the son of a powerful deity, Ifaromi who was convinced of his innocence and will for good. All hell broke loose when the plot of Egbe Okunkun bore fruit and the very darkness they sought to protect themselves against threatened to rise once more with Frederick at the heart of it all.

The Sacrifice of the Triplets - The Omega's Fate

"Your world is about to change." A voice whispered to me. I turned around but everywhere was dark and I couldn't make anything or anyone out. "Who is there?" I called out into the darkness. "I'm a friend Arin, no need to be frightened." The soft voice called out to me. "What do you want with me?" I questioned, my senses on high alert as I could feel the person moving around me in circles. "I don't want anything from you. I'm here to help you." The woman revealed and my brows furrowed in confusion. "Help me?" I asked. Arin is an omega born into the Bloodfang Pack, a role she’s long accepted but never fully embraced. Growing up with her best friend Siena, who dreams of becoming Luna, Arin has always been overlooked and dismissed by those around her, especially the Alpha’s sons, the triplets Kael, Jaxon, and Rowan. However, on her 18th birthday, everything shifts when Arin learns that her mate bond has been forged with one of the triplets. The triplets, each with their own distinct personalities and goals, are drawn into a tangled web of competition, love, and duty. Arin’s bond shifts between them, causing tension and uncertainty within the Pack. But Arin’s journey takes an unexpected turn when she learns of her true heritage: she is the descendant of an ancient royal bloodline, and her powers are linked to the Moonwell, the Pack’s most sacred and powerful source of life. As the Moonwell begins to fade, Arin’s destiny is revealed. Only she can restore the Moonwell and save the Pack, but doing so means losing her mate bond forever. The battle for the Pack’s future escalates when a betrayal leads to a civil war, and one of the triplets sacrifices himself to protect Arin and restore balance. With the Pack’s survival hanging by a thread, Arin must face the harsh reality of her choices and what it means to lead.

Embers of the Frozen Heart: I Married a Stranger by Contract

Their marriage was a transaction, inked on paper, devoid of affection. Or so he claimed. “What did you expect? That I’d fall for you? That this would become some fairytale?” “I would appreciate it,” she said coldly, “if you can remember that too.” Xia Ruyan, poised and distant, was nothing like the women Mo Yichen had known. She didn’t cry. She didn’t chase. She didn’t flinch. “You’re not worth the effort,” she said, unapologetically brutal. He tried to provoke her. Tried to tear past the mask of composure she wore like armor. But she met his fury with indifference. Moved like he was invisible. Breathed like he wasn’t there. He hated it. Her calm. Her detachment. Her maddening control. “I don’t like games,” he said one last time before turning away. Then, with a dark, curling smirk, he made a promise to himself. Let her pretend she’s above it all. So composed. So unreachable. Sooner or later, Xia Ruyan will break… And Mo Yichen will be the one to shatter her. She doesn’t feel anymore. Not since the day everything she loved was taken from her. Now, she hides emotionlessly behind a wall of ice, like someone who can't be touched....... He feels too much but only for control, power, and winning every game he plays. Cold-hearted and calculating, he’s never let anyone close enough to matter… until her. Two strangers, each carrying wounds the world can’t see, are thrown together by fate. He wants to melt her defenses. She wants to escape his grip. But when fire meets ice, someone always gets burned. Some hearts freeze to survive. Others burn to feel alive. Only the fiercest embers remain.
