When Love Bleed

In the heartbeat of Lagos, where hustle meets heartache, When Love Bleeds tells the raw, unfiltered story of Mike a broke but brilliant developer with big dreams and Danika, a resilient hairstylist caught between love, obligation, and spiritual warning. When a chance meeting by a pool sparks an unexpected connection, the two begin building a fragile romance, pieced together by shared ambition, late-night talks, and small acts of sacrifice. But love in a city like Lagos costs more than words. As financial pressures rise and Danika’s family moves in, Mike finds himself torn between being her hero and losing himself. Then come the signs. An oracle’s cryptic warnings. Nightmares Danika can’t shake. A pregnancy filled with complications. And a loss that breaks them both. As Danika drifts into silence, Mike spirals battling depression, betrayal, and the ghosts of a love he can’t let go. Years pass. Cities change. But some wounds don't heal with distance. When fate brings Mike back to Danika’s hospital bedside, with a child that may not be his but a love that never truly left the two must confront everything they buried. The pain. The sacrifice. The bleeding heart that still beats for each other. Will they choose healing over escape? Redemption over regret? Or has too much already been lost? When Love Bleeds is an emotionally rich, spiritually charged urban love story that explores the quiet heroism of staying, the weight of cultural expectations, and what it truly costs to build a future together when the world and even the spirits seem against you.

TIME OF LOVE

For Thyme, a university student wrestling with a profound fear of rejection and a fractured past, life is a constant puzzle. But when an unexpected escape alongside the magnetic, infuriating Meta leads them to a shared, tearful déjà vu at Hua Hin Beach, the puzzle shatters, hinting at a connection that defies explanation and an echo of forgotten emotions. As Thyme is flung through time, jolting between his chaotic present and the perilous underworld of the 1990s, he uncovers a startling revelation: he and Meta were once secretly entwined, their deep bond mysteriously severed by an unseen hand. In the present, Meta stumbles upon his father's hidden secrets: a mysterious notebook and an old telephone. The notebook reveals cryptic pleas from a Meta in the 1990s, desperately urging him to save Thyme from a deadly fate that will unfold in the future, hinting that the timeline itself hangs in the balance, shifting with their actions. Meanwhile, the old telephone, used by Meta in his high school days before a selective amnesia veiled his memories concerning Thyme, becomes a conduit to the past. Through it, the Meta of today unknowingly communicates with the time-traveling Thyme of the past, sparking a hidden relationship that flourishes. Yet, an envious shadow lurks, plotting an accident to separate them, erasing crucial memories and fracturing their bond. Now, caught between the passionate, forbidden romance with a charismatic yet terrifying Mafia heir—the 90s version of Meta—and the undeniable pull towards the Meta of today, whose quiet intensity stirs a forgotten ache in his soul, Thyme faces an agonizing choice. With time, memory, and reality blurring into a dangerous labyrinth, Thyme must not only confront the shadowy forces that conspired to tear them apart but also decide: is the love he feels for two Metas a cruel echo, a fated reunion spanning lifetimes, or something far more complex? Can he reclaim a lost history, or will the very act of remembering shatter his present and all hope for a future?

When Kingdoms Burns

Centuries ago, the Elyari Empire collapsed in a cataclysm of magic, leaving behind cursed soil, shattered thrones, and the "Fast Lives" — a cruel spell that dooms peasants to live full lives in only a decade. Now, fifty young sovereigns — scions of ancient houses — each rule their fragments of a broken realm, spread across wild biomes from icy mountains to scorched deserts, tangled forests to fertile plains. Among them is Alexios of House Helion, called Caesar, a charismatic leader in the plains, who dreams of unity. With his sister Niharika, a healer, and a circle of builders, warriors, and diplomats, he dares to imagine an island healed. He is joined — and opposed — by a web of rulers: Amir, a desert tactician; Thalia, a cultured visionary; Takahashi, the isolationist shogun of the forests; Julia, the cunning queen of Duskreach; Lyra, the stoic queen of ice; Astrid, a war-hardened tactician; and many others. As alliances rise and collapse, ancient tombs whisper secrets of the past. A prophecy emerges — a second calamity is near. When Alexios and Amir uncover lost Elyari texts in a volcano’s heart, they vow to stop history from repeating. But prophecy is not easily bent. Ramses and Adonis revolutionize village-building, ushering a new age of infrastructure and cooperation. Weddings are held, flags are raised, and pacts are signed. But underneath the progress, betrayals fester. Julia builds a web of spies. Orlan rises from exile. Takahashi's code clashes with diplomacy. Amir is poisoned. Friendships unravel. Whispers of an undead army echo from ancient tombs. The cursed minerals of vaelstone — coveted, dangerous, powerful — begin to reawaken forces best left buried. When Julia misreads the prophecy and activates a forgotten army, the dead rise again — and this time, they do not recognize kings from peasants. As kingdoms fall and cities burn, a final alliance of survivors unites: not for power, but survival. The past has awakened, and it remembers everyone. To save the island, the inheritors of Elarion must decide: Will they repeat the sins of their ancestors… or rise above them?
