The Scribe of Shadows
Author:Bernard Webb
I'm a horror author with a secret: I write in total darkness, a ritual to ward off a crippling paranoia that someone is stealing my words. But my paranoia has become my terrifying reality. I just received a letter from the main character of my unpublished novel. He's alive. He thinks I'm God. And he's trying to break through the page to meet his maker. Now, every word I write ripples into the real world, and I'm losing control of the story... and my sanity.

In a city hiding magic in plain sight, Alistair is the reclusive keeper of a peculiar antique shop. His only companions are three powerful Fae—Ignis, Terra, and Umbra—imprisoned within a grand clock that governs the city's temporal stability. He desires only quiet solitude, but when a cursed artifact stops the clock for the first time in a century, Alistair is dragged from his exile. Now, he must confront the shadows of his past and wield the very power he swore to abandon, or watch his city, his prison, and the Fae he protects unravel into chaos.

But the beast in chains is not the enemy—he's a prisoner of the same dark system.

This ability throws her into the path of Asterias, a cold and dangerously handsome agent from the secret order that polices these demonic incursions. Forced into an uneasy alliance, they must unravel a conspiracy tied to her father's mysterious death, a conspiracy that will drag them through high-tech heists and demonic cults, blurring the line between justice and revenge.
The Architect of Echoes
Author:James Daniels
I'm a programmer, a man of logic. I built an app to fake ghosts, a masterpiece of digital deception. My mistake wasn't in the code; it was in my arrogance. I thought I was simulating whispers in the static, but I was building a bridge. I created a recursive loop that amplified a signal from beyond, giving it form, a voice, and a hunger. It took my best friend. Now, it wears his memories and whispers my name in the dark. I built its cage, and now I'm trapped inside with it.
