The Girl by the Window

vikram_momi
Lila Morgan once lived for the wild joy of movement—racing through fields, dancing under stars—but after a rare illness confined her to her room, her world shrank to four walls and a single window. Watching the outside world from behind the glass, she begins to write what she sees: the people, the moments, the stories. But everything changes when a mysterious boy starts appearing by the park fence, always looking up at her window. A silent connection forms. Through exchanged notes and quiet moments, Lila begins to feel alive again. In a world where she thought she had been forgotten, someone sees her. The Girl by the Window is a heartfelt, romantic, and emotional journey of hope, healing, and the quiet power of being seen.

King of Knives

“In Varentis, trust is a luxury. Mercy is a weakness. And a knife solves more problems than gold ever could.” Darian Valcoris once had a name that mattered. Now he’s just another body in the pit, bleeding for coin, surrounded by criminals, watched by nobles who forgot his face. Broken, betrayed, and one mistake from death, Darian claws his way through the underworld of Varentis, a mountain metropolis built on secrets, steel, and blood, which serves as one of the three Palatinates of the Empire. But Darian isn’t here to survive. He’s here to take everything. From the gutters to the noble quarter, he’ll rise, through pit fights, heists, street wars, and whispered conspiracies. Alongside a crew of dangerous misfits, Darian plays a game that no one expects him to win. Because they don’t know who he's willing to become. Welcome to the Empire of Newfyre.
