Loomlines: The House of Threads
read
author : Wildfox
In the coastal town of Kannur, where monsoon winds rattle ancestral roofs and sacred Theyyam flames burn against the dark, the Raman family has woven cloth for generations. Their loom has outlived storms, political uprisings, and shifting governments. It has survived hunger. It has survived pride. But it may not survive change. As the 1990s usher in liberalization, Gulf migration, and the slow collapse of the handloom economy, the threads that once held the Raman household together begin to strain. Raman, a traditional weaver bound to land and ritual, believes inheritance is duty. Fathima, a schoolteacher who understands silence too well, knows survival requires flexibility. Sameer, restless and ambitious, leaves for the Gulf — trading sea breeze for desert heat and family for remittance. Devika, brilliant and defiant, dreams of a life beyond inherited expectation. Money begins to flow. Authority begins to shift. Faith begins to fracture. Political tensions simmer in Kannur’s streets. Ritual becomes spectacle. Migration becomes identity. The ancestral house, once unshakable, becomes contested ground. Across two decades of monsoon seasons, departures, funerals, betrayals, and reluctant reconciliations, The House of Threads traces how a family’s private fractures mirror a region in transformation. Because inheritance is not land. It is memory. It is silence. It is the tension that holds — until it doesn’t. In this sweeping first installment of the Loomlines saga, an intimate, unflinching portrait of a coastal family standing at the edge of modern India — where every choice pulls a thread, and every thread reshapes the pattern is crafted.

Yoei: Symphony of The Broken Oath
read
author : Cyruka.
In the immaculate kingdom of Altheria, purity is a performance — and power is inherited like a disease. Yoei Bougainvillea, a royal healer bound by blood and duty, lives under rules she never chose and truths she is never allowed to question. Every audience with the court leaves her weaker as if something unseen is slowly being carved out of her. Her brother, King Suna, rules with a gentle smile and an iron certainty that the past must remain buried — no matter how much blood it costs. When a routine visit beyond the palace walls erupts into violence, Yoei is pulled into a conflict far older than the throne itself. Assassins who worship profit, knights who choose loyalty over morality, and magic that remembers every sin begin to close in — not just on the kingdom, but on her very mind. As secrets surface and bodies fall, it becomes clear that Altheria’s greatest curse is not its enemies, but the legacy it forces its children to inherit. Here, mercy is a lie. Memory is a battlefield. And survival may demand becoming the very thing you despise.

The ghost of district zero
read
author : fen_gray
Ghost has one rule: don''''t need anything you can''''t get yourself. He''''s fifteen, from District 0 — the part of the city that doesn''''t appear on maps and doesn''''t produce the kind of people who end up in schools. He knows how to find food, read exits, and disappear into a crowd. He''''s been doing it alone since he was three years old. Then a man in a clean jacket starts leaving food on walls and coming back the next day regardless of what Ghost does about it. Kageshiro isn''''t a threat. He isn''''t a problem Ghost knows how to solve. He just keeps showing up — patient, warm, asking for nothing — until Ghost runs out of reasons to keep walking away. The Third District Academy is nothing like District 0. The students move differently, speak differently, take up space like they''''ve never once had to calculate whether it was safe to. Ghost doesn''''t know how to be someone who belongs somewhere. But somewhere between a borrowed pen, a white hospital bandage, and a spare room with an east-facing window — he starts to learn.

author : pangmida
(A reverse gender role story) While perusing the Royal Solarium for a simple diversion, First Concubine Yuuto Kanayama stumbles upon the infamous book, "The Withered Red Spider Lily." Written in 507 A.E., this novel of manners gained a notorious reputation for its explicit and daring depiction of sexuality. The story follows Hiroki Shimizu, a powerful Dyssian noblewoman and high-ranking general. Fresh from a victorious campaign against the neighboring nation of Cornaul, she is gifted Misbah, a beautiful young Cornaulian captive, by her Queen to serve as her concubine. However, their wedding night does not go as planned. Misbah, seeking vengeance for his family, attempts to assassinate her. Yet, instead of ordering his execution, Hiroki makes a far more unexpected choice: she decides to keep him as her concubine anyway, setting the stage for a dangerous game of power, desire, and revenge. DISCLAIMER: This story is a fanfiction of my favorite Scribble Hub story, Consorts of the Court, by ZannaYO. It was just something I wrote for fun as a little gift. I own nothing except the fake novel "The Withered Red Spider Lily" and its characters.

No wife, no kid, no family, that was life for Lucas, known in certain circles as Lucas Diavetelli. He was a die-hard omertà member of a Crime Family that had long buried its own history under layers of silence. He survived every turmoil on the streets, both the political games inside the Family and the wars against others. Somehow, he always came out alive. But survival did not bring satisfaction. The younger men used to look at him with respect, sometimes fear. Now they only saw an old relic from another era. The city had changed, the business had changed, even the codes were no longer as sacred as they once were. Loyalty was still spoken about, but rarely practiced. At the end of the day, Lucas would return to an empty room. No one waited for him. No one asked where he had been. No one cared how close he had come to death that week. The money was there, the reputation remained, but both felt hollow. He had spent his entire life protecting something called “the Family,” yet he had none of his own. In the quiet hours of the night, when the noise of the city faded and there was nothing left to distract him, Lucas sometimes wondered whether all the bloodshed had meant anything at all. Whether the code he defended so fiercely had given him purpose, or merely delayed the inevitable truth. In the end, he was not feared king nor respected elder. He was simply an old man waiting for his time. And that time came in a way he never expected.

I’m my own High School Rival: Antwon’s arc: Resurrection .
read
author : KnoxCross116
They say wishes are prayers the universe answers with riddles. Sakura Carter never wanted power, immortality, or glory. She only wanted her brother back. Antwon Carter was a quiet boy who never learned how to belong. At fifteen, he took his own life, leaving behind unfinished novels, half-learned Japanese, and a sister who would have traded heaven itself for one more hug. When grief became heavier than survival, Sakura found a lamp. The genie inside did not offer resurrection. It offered replacement. It could not return the dead, it said — only rearrange what remained. A body could be revived. A soul could be borrowed. Sakura agreed. Her final wish sent her five years into the past, to the day her brother died. At the same moment, in a burning warehouse in another world, a man named Knox Cross begged for a second chance at life. The genie bound those two tragedies together. The boy who woke up was Antwon Carter in name, but someone older looked out through his eyes. Knox remembers dying. Sakura remembers losing her brother. The world remembers Antwon as a boy who never quite fit. Now Knox must live inside the life of someone who was loved too late, in a world with inverted power, dangerous traditions, shifting clan politics, and emotional rules he doesn’t understand — while being watched by the sister who wished him into existence and the genie who still hasn’t finished collecting its price. I’m My Own High School Rival is a psychological reincarnation drama about grief, identity, gendered power, emotional inheritance, and what happens when someone is forced to become the version of themselves that someone else needed. It is told through shifting perspectives, centered on Antwon/Knox, as the world around him slowly reveals itself — and reacts to him.

Girl with questionable morals – and tastes – gets to live out her dreams in her favorite game, Skyrim. This story isn''''t about her, however. It is about her poor roommate who gets strung along for the ride: a boy who is terrified, wants to go home, and doesn''''t know what the hell is going on. A/N: I left some things out of the description because I felt they would be too spoilery :) Anyway, I will probably be rolling some dice on the critical junctures of the story, so things could go really bad for the protagonist. Or really good... maybe Alex gets lucky, who knows. Updates will happen every two days (that''''s my limit, sorry).

--- I translated this novel as a tribute to the amazing novelist “Qiong Yao” by Hellowyellow. In 1986, the novel was adapted into a Taiwanese romantic drama called Many Enchanting Nights. The drama was directed by Liu Lili and also starred famous Hong Kong actress Liu Xue Hua, Taiwanese actor Chin Han, and Lee Tien Chu. Hellowyellow comment about the story: 5-10 out of 100 people must have experienced something like this. Maybe everyone who has experienced it has almost the same story framework even though not all the details are the same... When old wounds are almost healed by time, life gives a test by sending acid rain on the wounds, which ultimately destroys faith and belief... Cruel?? regret? sad? hate?? When the body can no longer withstand the torture, the heart becomes cold and dead, hopes and dreams are destroyed by the cruelty of reality... Then, where should this self go?? To whom should this heart complain? And to whom is this hope anchored? ---- Sigh, but life is always like that.

Then she ended up in a vampire king’s palace—serving the very monster she should fear. Lucian wants nothing to do with her. Rafe won’t let her leave. Caught between a bond that broke her and a king who’s unraveling, Eva finds herself tangled in court secrets, forbidden power, and a choice that was never meant to be hers. She didn’t come here to be chosen. She definitely didn’t come here to catch feelings. And if one more immortal tries to claim her— “I swear I’ll stab someone with a silver spoon.” Heads up! This story dives into some dark and twisty stuff. You’ll find themes like emotional trauma, manipulation, dark magic, blood, violence, and death. There''''s also tension around power imbalance and identity struggles. If any of that hits too close to home, please take care of yourself first. Read at your own pace—and don’t be afraid to pause if it gets heavy. 📚📚 ❤️✨

Abby and Violet (Yuri Light Novel)

(As of today, 21-03-2024, I''''ll be uploading weekly the rewrites for volumes 4 and 5, the relevant chapters being identified as such. If you''''re new to the story, I''''d recommend reading the first 3 and then skip to the rewrites as the old versions will only remain here for those who might be already reading them and I don''''t want to delete the chapters and cut them off their progress.) This story follows the two titular characters as they develop as individuals together. When they first meet right before an exam to graduate into high school, Violet doesn''''t quite know what to think of Abby, but once they are reunited at the same class, Abby dives right in and offers to be her friend. With that, Violet, who''''s introverted, worrywart and the target of Abby''''s teasing, now has to learn how to be a friend, while Abby, who''''s extroverted, seemingly with no filter, has to deal with her own hidden issues. Their story is one of opposites attracting, learning about oneself, to let others in, and of letting go.
