_Ada_Obi
In the gritty and corrupt world of power and privilege, the Blackwood family reigns supreme. Their influence stretches far and wide, and their reach is long and deadly. But when Ava stumbles upon a dark secret, she unwittingly becomes a threat to the family's empire. As Ava digs deeper, she realizes that the Blackwood family's corruption goes far beyond what she initially thought. With the help of Sophia, a former insider with a troubled past, she gathers evidence and builds a case against the family. But the closer she gets to the truth, the more danger she faces. Marcus and Emma, two unlikely allies, join Ava on her quest for justice. Together, they navigate the treacherous landscape of corruption and deceit, always staying one step ahead of the Blackwood family's henchmen. As they fight to expose the truth, they discover the true meaning of loyalty, friendship, and sacrifice. But the stakes are high, and the cost may be more than they can bear. Will Ava and her allies succeed in bringing down the Blackwood empire, or will the family's corruption and power prove too great to overcome? "Contract of Deceit" is a gripping tale of corruption, power, and the human spirit's capacity for resilience and determination.

Runemaster in the Last Days

Coming back from the magic world, Riya rebuked her shameless stepmother. She was back to her first life with the world treasure and thought that her life would be smooth sailing. But… What was happening with the environment? Why did the mana suddenly recover on this Green Planet? And why did those magic beasts also appear? Riya: ??? Ah, Riya silently swore to secretly become stronger to deal with these magic beasts that went on rampage. She would use her runes to make a better life while watching the world recover from the destruction. Unfortunately, things were not so simple. Her best friend’s brother suddenly locked his attention on her. “Ah, ah, ah, you don't have to mind me….” “The runes you make are really interesting. Can you show me more?” The man smiled and stepped closer. “I…I can, but can you please not come too close?!” Riya just wanted to meditate silently, so how did she suddenly attract this big boss’s attention? ...

Blood & Vapor: A Song of the West [A Steampunk Western]

Wasters. The word spreads like wildfire across the frontier—whispered in saloons, cursed in cathedrals. Born of rogue science and stitched metal, they’re outlaws in the eyes of the Church and monsters in the eyes of the world. Levi Wilson didn’t choose this life. Once a streetwise mercenary, he was captured, experimented on, and turned into something he doesn’t understand. Augmented with prototype Vaporguard tech and left with scars he can’t outrun, Levi escapes into a land already teetering on the edge—where the Church tightens its grip, bounty hunters chase Wasters for coin, and the Old World’s empire watches the New with hungry eyes. Now hunted and alone, Levi must learn to survive—not just the bounty hunters and Inquisition on his trail, but the growing power inside him. What begins as a fight to stay alive will drag him into something far greater: a war for the soul of the frontier, and maybe the world beyond it. **WHAT TO EXPECT** • Guns are outlawed—blades, fists, and augments rule the frontier • Alternate timeline where the Church controls global tech and power • Steam-powered war machines and brutal Inquisitors • Grounded, gritty combat with realistic consequences • Deep worldbuilding with political, cultural, and religious conflict • Third-person limited POV with strong character focus • No chosen ones, no prophecy—just survival • Slow-burn mystery and high-stakes tension • No harem • Earthsong magic with real costs, not flashy spells • Bounty hunters, Templar Knights, orphans, war criminals, and broken survivors
