Death at my door

Have you ever wondered what happens during death—or what lingers after it? I have. I saw it. I endured it. And it is a story I wish I could forget. Ann Jones lived an ordinary life, indistinguishable from millions of others, until the cruel hand of fate closed around her and shattered everything she knew. What followed was not a single death, but many—each one different, each one more horrific than the last. There are countless ways to die. Accidents, poison, drowning etc. Now imagine one person forced to experience all of them. Ann is trapped in a living hell no human should ever know. Every death strips away another piece of her sanity. Every rebirth drags her back into suffering she cannot escape. With each return, her hope erodes, replaced by a single desperate wish: for life to finally end. To Ann, she wonders what can end her suffering But when she is forced to relive the torment yet again, she begins to question the purpose behind her suffering. Why her? Why this endless cycle? And what unseen force stands at the door between life, death, and rebirth? “No… I don’t want rebirth,” Ann sobbed, clutching her head as her thoughts unraveled. “I just want it to be over. Once and for all. Why me? Why me?” As her sanity fractures, Ann must confront a terrifying truth: Rebirth is not a gift. It is the cruelest form of torture. Rebirth is good when you're able to change what pain you felt before but when rebirth increases the pain what's the point. And if she cannot change what happens at the door of death, she may never truly escape it. Genre: Thriller / MysteryTone: Dark, haunting, yet threaded with fragile hopeCore Themes: Survival, human experimentation, the meaning of death, the cost of rebirth

CRIMSON LINEAGE: THE BROTHER WHO LOVED TOO MUCH

Seraphine Aldric was seven when her parents told her: "Your brother Theron will always protect you." And he did. Too well. Too much. Too obsessively. For twenty years, she never questioned why boys who showed interest disappeared. Why her brother's eyes followed her like a predator tracking prey. Why his touch lingered too long, burned too hot for something innocent. Until the day she discovered the truth: every man who ever wanted her was destroyed by Theron's hand. He didn't see her as a sister. He saw her as his birthright—property that came with the Aldric empire. She ran. Two years in London, building a life beyond his suffocating shadow. Two years of freedom. Then her parents summoned her home for an emergency. A girl is sobbing in their marble foyer. DNA tests scattered across mahogany tables. The impossible truth: Seraphine isn't an Aldric. She's the daughter of a hospital nurse, swapped at birth with the real heiress. She should be thrown out. Disowned. Finally free of the brother whose love feels like chains. Instead, Theron corners her in the hallway, storm-blue eyes blazing with something between relief and hunger. "Do you know how long I've waited for this?" His hand cups her face—no longer forbidden, no longer wrong by blood. "You're not my sister, Seraphine. You never were. And now there's nothing stopping me from making you mine." The real heiress wants her life back. Theron wants her in his bed. And Seraphine must decide: fight for the family that raised her but never truly loved her, or surrender to the man who's been obsessed with her since childhood—the only person who ever made her feel like she belonged, even if that belonging feels like captivity. Some loves are forbidden. Others are dangerous. Theirs is both.

When a prank drags her into the sacred mating ritual, she stumbles into the center of the circle and everything breaks: the feared Alpha Warrior, Hades, names her in front of the entire kingdom. A human. His mate. Claimed by a man no one dared to cross, the Cursed alpha and the King's blade. Iris is pulled into a world of iron law, whispered curses, and bitter enemies.

As enemies close in and betrayals surface, Iris discovers a power she never knew she had and a truth that could topple kings: she is no ordinary slave. She is the key to breaking the curse and when others find out who she truly is, she becomes a target. Her inner power reveals her as the Ultimate wolf queen and she fights beside Hades conquering their enemies. They end years of human slavery. Love forged in blood becomes war.
