The Small Secret
By @L. Pixie
Ethan, a mysterious Drayton-Fae no taller than a child, navigates a war-torn world where ancient races clash. With wavy maroon hair and emerald eyes that betray little, he is a silent, resilient warrior, trying to find his own kind. His people, the Drayton-Fae, are hunted relentlessly by ambitious vampires seeking total dominion, and weary elves caught in the crossfire. Unbeknownst to Ethan, he harbors a latent, forbidden power: the ability to resurrect himself and others. This divine gift is a ticking time bomb, a secret that could either be their salvation or their ultimate damnation. As the war escalates, Ethan must confront his own stoicism and embrace a destiny far grander, and more terrifying, than mere survival. The fate of the realms rests on a power he doesn't even know he possesses.

Death Train Taboo
By @Raymond Richard
In a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by an unknown cataclysm, humanity's last remnants are confined to the 'Death Train,' a colossal bullet train where 100 survivors are transported through desolate landscapes. Asher Morvan, a man shrouded in mystery, possesses a forbidden ability: he can read the deepest desires of women. Survival hinges on absolute adherence to the enigmatic rules enforced by the train's alluring conductors, women clad in seductive Asian traditional costumes. Yet, power on this train is cultivated by defiance. Asher must navigate a treacherous game where breaking rules can grant strength, but also invite peril from the conductors and fellow passengers. His ultimate goal: be one of the ten to reach the cockpit, unraveling the train's secrets before his desires, or others', consume him. The stakes are his life, and the truth behind this moving prison.
