Everyone in the state knows William Hank's name. The star quarterback who just won a national championship. The son of a business titan whose face can move stock prices. The guy an entire stadium screams for. Frank just wants everyone to forget he exists — especially the campus newspaper editor who keeps assigning him sports stories he never asked to write. Nobody's supposed to know that the coldest, most untouchable quarterback in the country spends his nights parked outside a journalism student's apartment, waiting for a text back. That he throws championship parties he doesn't care about, just hoping one particular guy will finally show up. That underneath the trophies and the highlight reels, William Hank has exactly one thing he can't have — and it's the one thing he wants more than any ring. They call it "just partners." No labels, no rules, no one finding out. But somewhere between stolen kisses at 30,000 feet and a fridge stocked with all his favorite food, Frank is starting to realize: some secrets don't stay buried. And some quarterbacks don't know how to lose gracefully — especially not this one.

After several years he finds a person who makes him human. Who teaches him what is life and how to live life in this world? For more updates, you have to read the story.

It's a story deal with it, what do you expect from me just read and find out. But anyway it's about Scorpio and how she became Zodiac. To be clear this came from Tale of 9 Zodiacs by yours truly. Any way all credit goes to my friend and I'll be posting more stories about the Zodiacs life.

When the Yoruba gods arrive on Scorpio Island, they find a land that does not simply need to be healed — it needs to be understood. The island is dark with sacred water, sealed roads, hidden iron, silent rivers, storm-heavy skies, and deep ocean trenches that seem to remember things no living voice has spoken. Unlike other lands, Scorpio Island does not reveal its wounds easily. It keeps its pain beneath roots, caves, tides, and dreams. Olodumare is the first to answer the island’s silence, bringing divine source-light to its highest black-stone heights. From there, each god claims responsibility for a different sacred part of the land. Yemaya opens the mother-waters and teaches the people how to be held. Eshu awakens the crossroads, giving them speech, choice, trade, and consequence. Oshun sweetens the rivers with beauty, love, and fertility. Ogun draws iron from the stone, shaping tools, roads, and sacred labor. Shango releases thunder and teaches the people public justice, ceremony, rhythm, and power. Obatala brings white cloth, clay, patience, mercy, and the wisdom of imperfection. Oya opens the winds of change, guiding the people through thresholds, storms, and transformation. Olokun reveals the deep sea’s hidden wealth and teaches reverence for what should not be taken lightly. Finally, Orunmila gives the island divination, ancestral memory, and the ability to read the sacred pattern beneath ordinary life. Across seventy chapters, Scorpio Island grows from a sealed and wounded land into a living civilization of shrines, rivers, markets, forges, drums, white-cloth courts, storm gates, pearl depths, and divination groves. No armies rise. No outside islands arrive. No great war interrupts the work. This is a story of divine worldbuilding, where worship becomes daily life and the people learn that every road, river, tool, song, storm, and dream has a spirit behind it. But as each domain reaches completion, the gods begin to notice the same quiet absence in different forms. No birth songs. No cradle charms. No naming drums. No midwives called at night. No unborn children appearing in dreams. For about five years, the women of each domain have carried no new life. At first, the silence seems local. Then it begins to feel deeper. By the time Scorpio Island is fully alive, its gods understand that the land has not finished speaking. Something beneath the island’s sacred order has paused, hidden from sight but felt by every divine power in its own way. The island they built is not broken — but it is waiting. And on Scorpio Island, what waits beneath the surface is never small.

Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close.
