The Conduit: Chapter 13
“What would you like to talk about, Commander Shepherd?” Max chuckled at the girl in front of him. They were hardly on formal terms, considering she was the victim of something horrible and he’d treated her like she was in protective custody rather than a suspect. Now, as he challenged her to a one-on-one, she was formalizing how she addressed him with some umph behind her tone.

Chapter 01 | Starbuilders
Nothaar Akii had left the village near the southern edge of the world tardier in the spring than he would have preferred. Over the long, dark, and cold season, the settlement's Keeper, Baubu Yoordi, had finally succumbed to his advanced age in the middle of his eighty-third winter. While Nothaar had originally found the geriatric man to be spritely and full of life, spending more time with Baubu had revealed how precarious his health situation really was, and how scared he was for his people's future. It seemed like all his actions were an intentional feint, trying to manipulate me into staying and taking over for him, Nothaar divisively thought as he continued his lonely trek through the now fully blooming woods. He even waited to die until he met me, using his passing to the next world as a way to get me to supersede him in this one!

The Neon Predator: A Futuristic Serial Killer Thriller Unraveled
Chapter 1: The City That Never Sleeps The year was 2075, and Neonspire, a sprawling metropolis on the Pacific Rim, shimmered like a galaxy of glass and light. Towering skyscrapers pulsed with holographic billboards, drones zipped through the air delivering packages, and neural implants let citizens live half their lives in augmented reality. But beneath the city’s glittering facade, a darkness festered—one that thrived on the anonymity of a world where everyone was connected, yet no one truly saw each other.

A Killer in the Cloud: Unmasking the Deadly Data Breach Virus
Chapter 1: The First Whisper of Death The rain tapped a restless rhythm against the windows of Marcus Reed’s Portland office on the morning of May 26, 2025. At 38, Marcus was a cybersecurity analyst with a reputation for spotting the unseeable—patterns in the digital chaos that others missed. His desk was a fortress of monitors, coffee stains, and scribbled notes, the air thick with the hum of servers. At 10:47 a.m., a notification broke his focus: an alert from HorizonTech, a cloud giant he’d been auditing since a data breach two weeks prior. The message was curt—employee Sarah Kline, 34, found dead at home. Cause: cardiac arrest. No history of heart issues.

The App That Kills: Unveiling SerenityNow’s Deadly Meditation Mystery. AI-Generated.
Chapter 1: The Whispering Trend The first whispers about SerenityNow began in late April 2025, a soft hum on the edges of social media that swelled into a roar by mid-May. It was the kind of app that seemed to materialize out of nowhere, a sleek meditation tool promising peace in a world drowning in chaos. Its interface was minimalist—soft lotus icon, muted greens, and a voice that felt like a warm hand on your shoulder. Within weeks, it had snagged 20 million downloads, its users flooding X with testimonials: “Slept like a baby!” “Best $4.99 I’ve ever spent!” Nina Patel, a 30-year-old investigative journalist with the San Francisco Chronicle, scrolled through the posts on a foggy morning, her coffee growing cold on her desk. The city outside her window buzzed with the usual hum of traffic, but something about those glowing reviews felt off, like a melody played just a hair out of tune.

No ransom call came—just a blockchain smart contract posted on a dark web forum, its terms chilling: transfer 10,000 Bitcoin (worth $600 million) to a wallet address by midnight, or Emily dies. A live video feed showed her bound in a dimly lit room, a timer counting down from five hours.

"Room Number 313: The Man Who Never Slept Alone"
I never believed in the supernatural. I used to laugh off ghost stories and black magic tales as leftover folklore. That was until 2019, when I spent one night—just one—in Room 313 of a guesthouse in northern India. That night changed everything I thought I knew about fear, reality, and the human soul.
