Adrian Gonzalez knows the painful truth about liking someone you have no chance with-they never like you back and you're left heartbroken. Ever wonder why it's called a 'crush?' But when the hopeless crush he has is on Parker Thompson-nonbinary school heartthrob with an impeccable fashion sense-he can't help but wish things would turn out differently. Staring at Parker from two seats behind in Biology is fine, and praying he doesn't get a boner when Parker jogs ahead of him in gym class is less fine- -but neither are as satisfying as he wishes they were. A class group chat is all it takes to intertwine Adrian's and Parker's lives. And one impulsive, stupid, never-wish-I-typed-it reply is the turning point for Adrian's love story. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ ☆Featured on @WattpadSocialMedia DM me reading list ☆Featured on @YARomance Friendzone Doesn't Exist reading list ☆ONC 2021 Longlist Ambassadors Pick ☆ONC 2021 Shortlist ☆ONC 2021 Honourable Mention Based on Prompt 73 Started: 5th February 2021

Children of the God of War, the Seren of the Mountain believe in two things: might is power, and magic is sin. Yet in their hubris, the Clan has forgotten their most important role - to protect the most powerful weapons in all the realms from being unleashed upon the Mortal Realms once more. * * * Born with the Goddess's Blessing on her skin, the elders thought Eliah would be the second coming of Taiten, the greatest warrior the Clan has ever seen. What they got was a walking blasphemy. Eliah Taitenschild is short, skinny, and useless in a fight - and she's a magic-wielding heretic to boot. All she wants to do is pass her shieldmaiden training without having her magic exposed. Or better yet, complete the Rite and kill a demonic, shape-shifting Fal'mor to prove herself worthy of wielding one of the weapons that the legendary Taiten left behind. But a silent war between magic and might has been brewing on the mountain for decades. When new life is bled into the near-extinct army of Fal'mor in the name of proving strength, the Clan soon discovers that the weapons they were meant to guard were never the kind that could be wielded. Fortunately, for every weapon, there's a countermeasure. The magic that the Clan so detests may turn out to be the most powerful sword and shield of all. ============== 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲: This story was formerly published as 'Crossroads' (Apr 2014).

{SAMPLE: Published on Amazon} Five hundred years ago, humanity's freedom died. When the Greek Gods and Goddesses were usurped from their home on Mt. Olympus, they crashed upon Earth and enslaved the human race. Children spend their existence inside prisons ran by ruthless Immortals, and upon their eighteenth birthday, they are thrown into an arena to be fought after. Once won, they are scarified with their name and short-lived identity in an unforgiving world, where there is an absence of hope for people with mortality coursing through their red veins. Servitude shackled humanity, but then a girl stood in the arena on the first summer solstice since she turned eighteen years old. A nameless girl, trembling behind the safety of her friend, landed in the Gods' worlds without knowing that she was going to be their unraveling. This wide-eyed slave, who bled two colors. One red like humans. One gold like the gods. Five hundred years ago, humanity's freedom died, but she's here to take it back. Final Book Cover commissioned by @Fantastical-Ink
