A locked room. A poet dead by his own quill. A detective who sees what others cannot. London, 1889. When the celebrated poet Julian Croft is found dead in his study-door bolted from within, a crimson quill pen buried in his chest-the police call it suicide. The perfect, tragic end for a man who wrote of love and loss. But Eleanor Vance, a young journalist desperate for a real story, refuses to believe it. A man at the height of his powers does not simply vanish. She seeks out Professor Alistair Finch, a reclusive philologist who consults for Scotland Yard on cases that defy reason. He sees what others miss. He finds patterns in chaos. And he agrees to take the case. The room was impossible to enter. The weapon was too fragile to kill. The suicide note was too perfect to be real. As Eleanor and Finch peel back the layers of Croft's life, they uncover a rivalry that burned like poison, a shipwreck that may not have been an accident, and a woman named Isabella Rossi-a ghost whose return will shatter everything they thought they knew. Because the dead are not always gone. Sometimes, they're just waiting. And in the shadows of London, a collector is watching. A collector who doesn't just acquire beautiful things. A collector who destroys them. The game is afoot. But this time, the detective is not immune.

When a breakthrough in dream visualization technology uncovers memories that don't belong to the present, science collides with something far older. A young girl begins speaking in an ancient tongue. A neuroscientist realizes he may have unlocked something impossible: reincarnation. Buried lives. A new form of time travel-through dreams. In Dreamcarnations, the past isn't history. It's waiting to wake up. Dr. Patterson Creek, a renowned psychologist and dream researcher, sets out to answer humanity's oldest questions: What are dreams? Why do we forget them? Are they mere illusions-or something far more real? And most unsettling of all: does the soul exist, and can it transcend time? His investigation takes a dramatic turn when Emma Cole, a young photographer, crosses his path after a routine photoshoot leads to a disturbing event. A child begins speaking in an unknown language, and Emma is haunted by visions that feel like memories from lives she never lived. As her nightmares intensify, reality itself begins to blur. Seeing in her case the proof of his theories, Dr. Creek dives deeper into the connection between consciousness, memory, and dreams. What if dreams are not symbolic fragments, but gateways? What if the mind can move through time-into the past, the future, or even other lives? As science pushes beyond its limits, the boundaries between identity, memory, and reality begin to collapse. Nightmares intertwine with forgotten existences, and dreams reveal themselves as keys to the deepest mysteries of human existence. Dreamcarnations is a gripping psychological thriller where science, the soul, and the unknown collide-and where unlocking the mind may come at a cost humanity was never meant to face.

But not everything awakening is meant to be found. And not everyone watching her is human. As secrets unravel and shadows begin to follow her every step, Abigail must discover who-and what-she truly is... before the darkness that created her comes to claim her again.

"In the quiet hum of my apartment, where shadows dance on the walls, I am at peace, alone with my silent cat. I've been living here temporarily before seven nights, surrounded by the black and brown canvas of the night outside my window. It's a big change from the pink dream I had last night. I want to paint it by the color I love especially the rose shade. But one night, a dark night, the wind whispered secrets, and I fell asleep. The cat's strange silence was trying to wake me up. Masculine whispers came from the library below, like old voices and rich laughters sent shivers down my spine but my eyes is starting to drift off again." a nameless female character inspired by Anna Karina and the man is whom I am portraying to Alain Delon. Aesthetics and situations are soft sepia and white gothic. All of details are fictional. ꕤTo God Be The Gloryꕤ by avonpoet𐙚

In the misty highlands of Yānlín, the gothic Black Orchid Estate serves as the secluded home of Yè Júnhào, an ancient and reclusive vampire. Every year, 100 beautiful women are hired as maidservants. Lín Xuěyáo, a stunning young woman desperate to save her dying grandmother and clear massive medical debts, joins them. She's selected for the most intimate role: personally serving the master himself. What she doesn't know is that the vampire has chosen her as his prey - a source of blood to sustain his immortal existence. However, her unique, intoxicating scent awakens something far deeper in him: an overwhelming addiction and love that flips the power dynamic. Instead of draining her, he becomes captivated by her presence. The predator turns into the captive, craving her companionship more than her blood. Amid candlelit shadows and forbidden tension, a passionate romance blooms between the immortal vampire and the human woman who unexpectedly holds power over his ancient heart. It's framed as a dark tale of obsession, seduction, and redemption - classic "vampire falls hard for the one he can't harm" trope, with heavy emphasis on power imbalance, emotional intensity, and slow-burn (or steamy) forbidden love.
