future

Fourteen years of war nearly destroyed the world. Seven years of peace have barely held it together. The Seven Nation Army, forged from the ashes of World War III, stopped the bloodshed and vowed to protect the fragile balance. But peace has a price—and not everyone is willing to pay it. A shadow looms over the fractured world. The New World Order, a ruthless organization born of chaos, plots to tear apart the fragile ceasefire. Their vision? Burn the old world to the ground and rebuild it on their terms. At the forefront of this conflict, Bravo Squad stands as humanity's shield. Led by Captain Sohel Choudhury, callsign "Ghost," this elite unit faces a daunting task: unravel the NWO's plans before the world is plunged into World War IV. But trust is scarce, alliances are fickle, and the battlefield is no longer confined to nations—it’s everywhere. Victory isn’t guaranteed, but failure means the end of everything. — “If taking one life can save a thousand, we have to pull the trigger. If that one life is at the end of your barrel, and you won't be able to take the shot, leave this room right now. Because if you don't take the shot, your enemy will. And he won't hesitate. I assembled you here to win a war, not to turn all of you into cannon fodder.” Sohel took a deep breath and looked out over his squad. “Now, let me ask again, does anybody want to leave? Does anyone here think that he'd not be able to pull the trigger?” The room buzzed with one synchronized sound, “No, sir.”

Crimson Vale Academy—where reputation is currency, and failure is a stain you wear on your sleeve. Behind gothic walls and spotless uniforms, students aren't just educated—they're measured, ranked, and pitted against each other in a brutal meritocracy. Privileges are earned, not given. The strong rise. The weak vanish. Enter Kairon Vale, a transfer student marked Rank D—the bottom of the bottom. No badge. Just a stitched black fang, branding him as “Obsidian”—a warning to others. In a system where points dictate your value, Obsidian-ranked students claw for every opportunity to ascend into the prestigious Golden or Platinum ranks—where comfort, power, and influence await. But for most, it’s a losing battle. Yet Kairon isn’t here to fit in, impress, or play by their rules. Cold, calculating, and impossible to read, he watches the system… and waits. Because while the academy judges worth by numbers and names—he understands something deeper: Everyone wears a mask. And every mask can be cracked. Let the games begin.

It is the year 2278 and humans are about to send the very first dispatch spaceship to Neptune. The earth has long since been polluted, they have lived in the apocalyptic ages for way too long. It’s as though man is reverting to his primitive beast era, the more technology advanced. Life on earth is shit. Those that could afford it become part of the government program that carried humans to other planets. There are human settlements on Mars, the moon, even Saturn and Jupiter were scientifically made solid and more habitable. And on these new settlements, man’s beastliness and greed still find ways to prevail, that there is now need for creating new planetary settlement. Hence, the Harbinger led by none other than Jeremy Manx would be sent to Neptune, which the scientists have found to need a few tweaks to be able to support human life, to scout the planet and ready it for settlement. A journey that despite the advanced technological developments on the speed of the spaceship, would still last for a few years. A few years before they get to the planet, with no idea what to expect.

The Dark Halo Cycle is a sweeping collection of interconnected science fiction short stories set within a shared, expansive future where humanity’s reach stretches from Earth’s orbit to the icy edges of the solar system. In this intricate universe, space stations orbit dying planets, corporate secrets fester in low-gravity corridors, and unknowable forces stir in the shadows between the stars. Through disparate voices and settings—an embattled commander on a haunted research vessel, a detective chasing an impossible murder on Olympus Station, and engineers uncovering disturbing anomalies on distant outposts—each story contributes a piece to a larger, unfolding mystery. As characters grapple with identity, loyalty, and truth, subtle threads begin to weave together: unexplained phenomena, duplicated lives, and whispered protocols hint at a deeper, hidden structure guiding—or unraveling—humanity's destiny. Though each tale stands on its own, together they form a mosaic of creeping dread and awe, ultimately revealing that the greatest threats may not come from beyond, but from within.

Ari has always dreamed of something simple: to be wanted. To be loved not for what she could do, but simply for who she was. In the real world, she’s invisible—overlooked, unheard, and always second to her mother’s affection for her brothers. When life becomes too heavy, she escapes into webnovels where lonely girls find families, magical powers awaken overnight, and someone always says, “I choose you.” One night, someone—or something—answers. Ari wakes in a world ruled by gods and ancient bloodlines, where power whispers in her bones and fate seems to have plans of its own. For the first time, she’s not just the forgotten daughter. She might be someone extraordinary. But even in a magical world, love isn’t simple. And power? It always comes at a price. As Ari begins to unravel the mystery of her new life and what sleeps within her, she’s faced with a choice: chase the love she’s always yearned for, or forge her own future—one where she finally learns what it means to love or at least accept herself. Author's Note Hi! I’m the author of Ari’s story. First, I want to be honest—I struggled a lot with writing the synopsis for this book. I know how important a good blurb is. As a reader, I rely on it to decide whether a story will speak to me, and I wanted mine to do justice to the journey I’m telling. But after rewriting it too many times, it started to feel like a wall I couldn’t climb. So instead, I chose to move forward. To sit down every day and write. To let the story breathe rather than trap it in endless drafts. I publish because if I don’t, I’ll keep rewriting the same chapter or synopsis forever. This book is my heart. I want it to be warm, fluffy, and healing. I want it to make you laugh. I want you to feel comforted and seen. I hope that by the end of it, you leave with a smile—and maybe a quiet truth tucked into your chest. So thank you for picking up this book. It means more than I can say. – With love, Nova Weaver
