Stacy_Ihemelandu
In a world shattered by humanity's own ambition, survival comes at a cost. Decades ago, experiments to create bioengineered soldiers spiraled out of control, fusing alien DNA with human genetics. The result was The Others—monstrous beings that decimated the human population, driving the survivors into hiding. Leah Carter is one of those survivors, struggling to find her place in a fractured group that includes Elias, her unwavering ally; Thompson, a man haunted by the past; Jonah, whose fear breeds mistrust; and Maren, whose quiet strength hides a mysterious past. When a revelation about The Others' origins emerges, Leah discovers a disturbing connection to the creatures—one that could either save humanity or doom it. As the group searches for a long-abandoned military research facility rumored to hold the key to defeating The Others, Leah faces a growing divide within her team. Jonah’s suspicion and the group's unease threaten to tear them apart just when they need each other most. Amidst the chaos, Leah uncovers a shocking ability to communicate with The Others, forcing her to confront the possibility that she may be more connected to the enemy than she ever imagined. With the weight of humanity’s survival on her shoulders, Leah must navigate betrayal, fear, and her own inner turmoil. Can she and her group uncover the truth and find a way to fight back against The Others before it’s too late? Or will humanity’s final hope crumble under the weight of secrets and mistrust? "They Are Not Like Us" is a gripping apocalyptic thriller that explores the fragile bonds of trust, the cost of survival, and the enduring question: What makes us human?

Spy × Family: The Perfect Spy/Dad System

He was once a ghost in the machine—an elite mercenary, whispered of in war zones and buried in redacted files. Cold, efficient, unkillable. Until he died. A bullet to the brain. Fade to black. Then he woke up. Not in a grave. Not in hell. But in the pristine body of a man named Loid Forger. A name that meant nothing to him—until a voice echoed in his head: [Welcome to the Perfect Spy and Family Man System.] Objective: Create the Ideal Family. Maintain World Peace. Bake Perfect Fluffy Pancakes. Penalty for Failure: [System Lock & Neural Degeneration]. Have a nice day! Thrust into the world of Spy x Family, the former mercenary finds himself trapped in the skin of Westalis' top intelligence agent, just as Operation Strix begins. But unlike the original Loid, he carries no memories of this place—only his honed instincts, a sardonic wit, and the AI system integrated deep in his brain. To survive, he must balance high-stakes espionage with laughably bizarre family missions, all while hiding the fact that he’s not the real Loid. His cold logic clashes with the warmth of Yor, a deadly assassin with secrets of her own, and Anya, a psychic child who—strangely—can’t read him at all. As missions escalate from “Make a Bento with Love” to “Infiltrate an Assassin Gala Disguised as a PTA Meeting,” he’s forced to question everything: his past, his identity, and the family he never asked for… but might be willing to die for. Or live for.

Sigrid's eyes trailed down, to the silver blade pressed against her abdomen, she raised her head and laughed snidely. "A knife to the belly of your wife as soon as you return from war, other men start by saying, honey i am home. They also don't bring home unwanted canaries as presents for their wives." Roland leaned down with a part smug and part angry smoldering look in his eyes. It was if he wished to set her on fire, and not in the passionate way. "Honey i am home." he slowly said, dragging the words out. Sigrid trailed the knife slowly over his neck, almost as if she was caressing it with her fingers. "Welcome back, i hope you don't mind but i intend to kill that canary. If you want to bring me a gift next time, try gold and diamonds. I can also accept you, just wrap a ribbon around your bare chest."
