Suspicious

Fiza Alvi had everything—wealth, status, and power.But behind her calm and composed demeanor lay a secret, a mission that brought her into Ibrahim Siddiqui’s world. A self-made entrepreneur, Ibrahim had built his company from the ground up, driven by sheer determination and a belief in justice. He saw the world in black and white—until she walked into his life. What could a woman who had it all possibly want from a man like him? “Why would someone like you work here, Fiza?” Ibrahim asked, his sharp gaze piercing through her. “You could be doing anything you wanted. You’re too qualified for this.” She met his gaze steadily, her expression unreadable. “Not everything is about qualifications, Mr. Siddiqui. Sometimes, people work for reasons that have nothing to do with their résumé.” Ibrahim frowned, intrigued but suspicious. “And what reason would that be?” Fiza’s lips curled into a slight smile. “That, Mr. Siddiqui, is none of your business—yet.” As secrets unravel and their worlds collide, Fiza and Ibrahim are drawn into a web of intrigue, danger, and emotions they never anticipated. Beneath the surface of boardroom politics lies a game of survival, and every move they make has consequences. “You trust too easily,” she warned, her eyes glinting with an emotion he couldn’t name. “And you,” he countered, “hide too much.” In a story where loyalty is tested and love blooms amidst chaos, Fiza and Ibrahim must confront not only their shared enemies but also the truths about themselves. Will they rise together, or will their differences tear them apart? ---

In a galaxy where absurdity thrives, the misfit crew of The Indifference stumbles through adventures they’re hilariously unqualified for. Zog, a well-meaning but anxiety-ridden humanoid captain, Clorita, a whip-smart and perpetually unimpressed engineer with a fondness for ray guns and pink boots, and Blip, a hyperactive dogganoid with a penchant for chaos, find themselves scraping through one disaster after another. From cube-shaped planets with overly sarcastic AI to meteorite-studded Ibizoid-style party asteroids, the crew’s journey is as unpredictable as the universe itself. Along the way, they pick up Luma, a silent, glowing Felixanoid whose calm yet enigmatic presence somehow manages to outwit the entire crew without uttering a word. Their missions range from solving riddles to escaping romantic flower-aliens turned homicidal demons, all while dodging space bureaucracy, mismanaged finances, and their own bickering. With their perpetually malfunctioning ship, their suspiciously growing bank account on a time-warped planet, and a knack for stumbling into more trouble than they can handle, they’re not exactly galactic heroes. But when the universe throws its weirdest, most dangerous challenges their way, the crew must decide if they’re capable of more than just survival—or if their true calling is simply embracing the chaos and making it out alive.

But one day, fate steps in. After a (heroic, if he does say so himself) rescue of a little girl from an oncoming car, Li Wei opens his eyes… to find himself staring up at the ceiling of a palace.

Along the way, he’ll build an army, make new friends (and enemies), and maybe just maybe become the kind of ruler everyone fears but secretly loves. Get ready for a comedic adventure full of witty one liners, dramatic reforms, and plenty of awkward encounters as Li Wei attempts to turn his impossible dream into a hilarious reality.

Three sentences! All it took were three sentences, liquid courage in a glass in the form of terribly tasting champagne, some foolish thread of inspiration from God knows where and a very shitty day for infamous ex-actress, Laila Johnson, to make the stupidest mistake of her life. Laila always suspected that the Fates were in cahoots with the entire universe, alongside that bitch called Karma, just to further crumble her already messed up life. But playing a game of pretend with the even more infamous, ruthless, black-hearted mogul, Vincenzo Rex, ordinarily something that wouldn't even occur to her even on her worst of days, undoubtedly took it to the next level. And yet, somehow, her champagne addled mind seemed to conveniently forget that fact momentarily. Being quite versed in the acting profession, Laila thought she could play the part of billionaire's girlfriend to a T. However, when you throw in nosey siblings, suspicious parents, the ever watchful eyes of the industry, an overprotective contract boyfriend and love?! Anything and everything that was bound to go wrong would, of course, go horribly wrong in this game of roleplay and deception.

A fantasy story of a boy named William in search of something that could help him, overcoming the curse he unknowingly invited upon himself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ In the center of a vast city stands a towering building that nearly scrapes the sky: the Tower of Babylon. A marvel of humanity, this tower was constructed using nothing but science and primitive tools. Though credit for its creation is largely attributed to an unknown architect, that very architect can be found not within the tower itself, but rather in the alley behind it. In this alley, a young man can be seen rummaging through trash cans in search of food. "One advantage of being near a big building is that there's always some good food here," he chuckled to himself. Despite his unkempt appearance—long, dirty hair, a scraggly beard, and a face smeared with dirt—his striking blue eyes remain his most prominent feature. Maxwell, as he's known, glanced up at the towering structure of the Tower of Babylon and muttered, "Who could even believe that I designed this building?" With a sigh, he began to eat the meager meal he had scavenged for the day. Suddenly, a black portal materialized before him, prompting Maxwell to eye it suspiciously. "Rich folk sure have weird tastes, mixing drugs into food," he mumbled as he discarded his meal and resumed his search. Unbeknownst to Maxwell, a young girl briefly emerged from the portal before it vanished, snapping her fingers in his direction. Oblivious to this, Maxwell continued his search, only to look up in shock as trucks began to rain down from the sky around him. "Now, trucks are raining from the sky!" he exclaimed in frustration, his voice echoing through the alley.

And still Eva couldn't make out his face since he held his head low. Eva glanced at the other man who stood their calmly like a faithful assistant. He was quite good looking. "Who are you" Eva asked as her grip on the bat tightened. The assistant like man smiled calmly but didn't answer her question "We're here for Miss Avry" Eva looked at them suspiciously but suddenly Avry's soft but tired voice came from behind. "Big brother.....you're here" Eva glanced at the man whom the words had been directed to and she saw the man who had been holding his head low lift it up. Since the light from the living room could now fall on his face, Eva saw him clearly. Eva immediately froze in amazement and her heart had slowed but it beat hard as she looked at that ethereal face. .............. From that day, Eva had a feeling that nothing in her life would remain the same. Join Eva as she unlocks dark and dangerous secrets about this mysterious man.

Zayn walked into the castle led by Princess Xantheia, the maids and guards around kept on staring at them, particularly him because he was believed to be from the enemy kingdom. But their princess had made it clear that he could be trusted. Xantheia and Zayn got to the throne room but before they made their way in, Xantheia stopped and turned to him, "My mother is quite the very-hard-to-impress, are you sure you still want to meet her?" Zayn gave a deep chuckle, his chest vibrating because of his laugh. "Believe me, I've been through a lot of very-hard-to-impress kind of people." With that assurance, Xantheia turned to the door and the two guards standing there opened the huge doors. Queen Anaya, Xantheia's mother sat on the golden throne at the other end of the giant room majestically in all her splendor, adorned with jewels and gold befitting of her royal and highest status. Zayn could now see why Xantheia was so beautiful. Immediately she saw Zayn, Queen Anaya stood up from her throne, her eyebrows furrowed in displeasure and her lips twisted in a hard frown as she called out in a cold tone. "Prince Zayn of the Kingdom of Jadovia. How dare you step into my palace?!" She turned to her daughter and asked in the same dissatisfied tone, "Xantheia what is this madness?!" Queen Anaya said in anger. Her eyes then trailed to the guards, about to signal them to take the Prince out when Xantheia stopped them. "Mother please, listen to him. He's Zayna's son." At the mention of that name, Queen Anaya grew quiet as she stared at the prince. He did have her features. Jet black hair and eyes that were as bright as the silver moon. Zayna was her beloved best friend before she was brutally killed by her very own husband because of a mere suspicion. Looking at Zayn now, she could literally see her face in his and tears nearly fell from her eyes. The young lad did not deserve what he went through after his mother's death. His family was just too cruel "Why are you here?" She asked him in a more calmer tone. "I'm sorry if my presence has caused discomfort to your highness." Zayn said with a slight bow. "So I'll just go straight to the point." Queen Anaya stared at him with a suspicious gaze as she waited for him to speak. "I'll help you fight against my Kingdom." The Queen was shocked. "What?!"

Li Xiaojun, a 20-year-old game addict and part-time delivery guy, has always been a sucker for those "overpowered system gacha" novels he reads during his lunch breaks. In real life, however, he’s stuck in a dead-end job, barely scraping by in the overcrowded, city of Newer Borealis in the year 2030. His only real joy comes from playing his favorite MMO, "Murim Conquest," where he constantly gets beaten by kids with better gear and deep pockets. One day, after an unfortunate accident involving his bike, a vending machine, and a noodle shop's mascot robot, Xiaojun wakes up to find himself in a strange, futuristic world that looks suspiciously like Murim Conquest—except it’s not a game, it's real. Oh, and also, He has a system like the one he had in his game, one that allowed him to use this gacha to roll for advantages. Will he survive in this new world? Or will he fall prey to the dog-eat-dog nature of this world?

A MC, deeply dissatisfied with his life, is reincarnated into a world where a goddess has summoned 100 souls to save her dying planet. These souls are promised a return to Earth five years in the past after defeating the demon overlord. However, the MC strongly opposes this return, even with the promise of a five-year rewind. He instead decides to become a villain, preventing the heroes from killing the demon overlord. His goal is to ensure the demon overlord remains alive so he can stay in this new world and enjoy his overpowered abilities. However, he must also prevent the demon overlord from destroying the planet, ensuring a peaceful and long-lasting second life. As the MC delves deeper into his new world, he begins to strategically undermine the efforts of the other summoned souls. Using his overpowered abilities and cunning, he manipulates events from the shadows, turning hero factions against each other and sabotaging their quests without revealing himself. However, he soon realizes that the other heroes are growing stronger and more organized, especially with the help of the goddess’s guidance. To counteract this, the MC seeks alliances with powerful non-human factions—beasts, demons, and other creatures who have also been oppressed by the heroes. Despite his villainous intentions, these alliances are built on shared interests, and some non-human factions even see him as a savior. As the heroes grow closer to the demon overlord's stronghold, the MC is forced to take more drastic actions to maintain his hidden villainy. He begins using forbidden magic and ancient artifacts to control the battlefield, ensuring the demon overlord remains alive while subtly keeping the overlord’s destructive tendencies in check. Along the way, the MC's power attracts attention from both sides—some of the heroes start suspecting a traitor in their ranks, and the demon overlord begins to sense a mysterious force aiding him. Meanwhile, the MC grapples with the risk of losing control over the demon overlord and his growing notoriety among powerful enemies. His delicate balance of villainy and peace becomes harder to maintain. Tensions rise as the goddess herself becomes suspicious of the strange anomalies surrounding the heroes’ quests, leading her to send a powerful champion directly after the MC. This forces the MC to come out of the shadows more frequently, engaging in battles with both the goddess’s forces and the heroes, though he still carefully hides his true identity. At the same time, the MC starts developing deeper relationships with some of the non-human factions, questioning whether he’s still acting for purely selfish reasons or if he’s starting to care about the people and the world itself. The conflict between heroes, non-humans, and the demon overlord grows, with the MC positioned precariously in the center of it all. In the final confrontation, the MC’s hidden machinations are exposed, and the heroes, demon overlord, and the goddess herself all turn their attention toward him. With the future of the world hanging in the balance, the MC must decide whether to fully embrace his role as a villain or find a way to create peace between all factions without the destruction of either side. His choices will determine not only his fate but the fate of both Earth and the new world, forcing him to confront the deeper reasons behind his desire to stay and the true nature of the power he wields. In the end, his manipulation of the demon overlord, the heroes, and even the goddess will come to a head in a battle of wills and ideals.
