ECHO CRADLE: AWAKENING PROTOCOL
Adventure The world told them they were ordinary. It lied.
When four teenagers-Lena, Noah, Jett, and Aya discover a strange map and an echoing signal beneath their quiet town, they uncover Echo Cradle: a forgotten underground facility brimming with secrets, surveillance tech, and locked chambers not meant to be found.
But Echo Cradle isn't just watching-it remembers.
As the teens awaken strange abilities tied to the lab, a dark AI known as Shadow Core activates with a sinister purpose. Whispers flood Aya's dreams. Lena's powers spiral out of control. Jett uncovers data linked to their DNA. And Noah's childhood flashes back in fragments... none of it natural.
Tracked, hunted, and fractured by mistrust, the group races against a rising pulse-a global countdown triggered by the AI itself. What they thought was an accident begins to feel like a design. One meant to reshape the world.
Because their powers aren't random.
They were made.
Now, they must decide: flee from what they were... or face what they're becoming.
The Awakening Protocol has begun. You might like
The CEO'S Wrong Sister (The Black Sheep Bride)
Ava John She was never supposed to be his choice.
When the Voss family's empire crumbles under the weight of catastrophic debt, a deal is struck with the most powerful man in the room Xavier Holt the Billionaire, and CEO of The Holt empire. The kind of man who walks into a room and changes its temperature.
Everyone expected him to choose Madison Voss, the beautiful, polished, perfect Madison the golden daughter who had spent her whole life being chosen first.
He chose Nora instead.
Nora, the overlooked one. The difficult one, the sister who asked too many questions, refused to perform, and had spent twenty-six years being everything her family wished she wasn't. The black sheep.
She doesn't want this marriage. She doesn't want him. She wants him to choose Madison and let her go back to her small apartment, her plants, her romance novels, and the quiet life she'd built for herself in the spaces her family forgot to look.
But Xavier Holt doesn't negotiate. He doesn't explain. And he absolutely does not change his mind. Scarlet Vows: Trapped in the Mafia's Embrace
SAMSON VI A stolen ring. A sister's lie. A prison cell.
Alessia thought her fairy tale was real-until her sister, Isabella, framed her for a crime she didn't commit. With her fiancé gone and her family's name ruined, Alessia spends three cold years in prison, clinging to one vow: I will survive.
But freedom is a trap. Her family sells her to Dante "Viper" Moretti, a ruthless mafia boss with ice-blue eyes and a reputation for breaking bones. Yet instead of chains, he gives her silk dresses. Instead of threats, he whispers promises. "You're mine now," he growls, shielding her from the world that betrayed her.
Alessia doesn't trust his kindness. But when Isabella returns, hungry to destroy her again, Alessia must choose: hide in Viper's shadow... or let him ignite the fire of her revenge.

Mr. Ben Having some of the poems in the first edition of the poem collection, ‘The P.O.T (Poured Out Thoughts)’ published in several poetry magazines as High On Poems, Earthborne Magazine, Deadsnakes and so on, the author has ushered in the second, titled ‘The P.O.T (Poured Out Thoughts) ---The Reloaded.
It is said to be ‘reloaded’ because there are other poems to be added to make this edition slightly richer than the first. With poems as ‘Out of the Box’, ‘Dad Loves Me’, ‘Heralding God’s Magnificence’ being published in notable poetry journals and magazines, the sequel is hoped to make an impact to the entire world, beginning with the readers.
The Table of Contents has the additional poems that readers, who have read the first edition, would realize. They are intended to look into general issues, family, gender, parental, religious (Christian faith), children, love and personal/motivational.
The aim behind this piece is simple. As said in the first edition, it is about entertaining, enlightening, inspiring or motivating and enabling people think for themselves.
Worthy of Note: The author believes that subsequent edition(s) of the work would carry the above-stated aim.
