8 prisoners. 1 remote island. 10 years later. Ten years have passed since the original Project 8110 inmates escaped captivity from the island they'd be imprisoned on. In those ten years, they'd moved on with their lives, but stayed on guard, especially after receiving a message a few years after their escape from the man who had taken them-Lincoln. Ten years after their escape, the children of the inmates go missing, waking up on a highly secure remote island. The children are collared and imprisoned, labeled as inmates despite committing no known crimes. Now face to face with the man that tormented their parents, the children are thrown into their own challenges. These "inmates" are given simple instructions for a chance to survive and escape-if they can survive a series of brutal games and survive until the end, they will earn their lives and their freedom. The rules were simple: Survive, don't quit, and earn your freedom one death at a time. But these children know that Lincoln is not a man who plays fair. They know that their freedom is not guaranteed, and that the games are all an attempt to end their lives and get back at their parents. Behind the cameras, SEASON TWO: DEATH ROW is a global broadcast-a violent, updated social experiment designed to entertain the dark web by pitting those who truly wish to survive against those who he feels shouldn't exist in the first place. The true goal? Death to the offspring of his mortal enemies.

8 prisoners. 1 remote island. 10 challenges. These prisoners believed they had a chance to cut down their life sentences-if they survived a series of brutal challenges, mind games, and moral sacrifices. The rules were simple: don't kill, don't quit, and earn your freedom one task at a time. However, nothing was real. Not the time off. Not the rules. Not even the mercy. Behind the cameras, SEASON ONE: DEATH SENTENCE is a global broadcast-a violent social experiment designed to entertain the dark web by pushing society's "worst" to kill each other. The true goal? Make murder inevitable and to film every second. Until a few of them start connecting the dots. When inmates uncover the truth, the game changes. The hunted become hunters. The guards become prey. And the audience? They're about to witness the one thing they never saw coming...

The wheel continuously revolves to evolve.

"Stop overthinking," she whispered, holding my cheek as she stroked her thumb. "Please." "I can't," I admitted, scrunching my brows. "I'm sorry."

He slowly turned to me with the meanest look I've ever seen on his beautiful face. His long legs allowed him to take three short steps towards me until we were face to face. He leaned down to reach my height and then pushed me against the wall. "I don't do relationships," he said very coldly. My heart dropped but my pride fell before my heart could reach my stomach. He resumed packing my bag. "Why not?" I asked with an attitude to appear unbothered but I really am. "Because, they're-" his sentence was cut off by gunshots. "Fuck!" He yelled then grabbed me and threw me on the floor behind the bed. _________________________ Life was never easy for Grace whether it was growing up in her country or moving to New York for a better life.

"Ooo girl look, look, look." She tapped her shoulder repeatedly. Euphoria looked to the entrance instinctively only to see the man she had seen in the alley the first night she worked here. Her breath hitched as she watched them walk in. She never dared to tell a soul about what she'd seen that night. She wasn't looking for any trouble. Especially when he let her go."Who is he?"

"I am the textbook definition of in love with you." *** Jazz Red has had a life full of love; his parents taught him how to value himself, his siblings taught him how to stand up for what he believed in, and his family has taught him what it means to matter to people. He has people in his corner, there for him and ready to have his back. He knows that there are people who are less lucky than him-- with unaccepting parents and cruel siblings and a harsh past. He knows that when things go wrong, sometimes people are alone. Sometimes they fall apart, and there's no one else there to catch their shattered pieces. But he isn't one of them. He has friends and family that love him. So why does he want more? Why does he-- even with all the joy his family gives him-- want a different type of love? He feels selfish, undeserving. Why did he have to feel so bad about being alone when he was surrounded by people who appreciated him? Why did he have to want, why did desire never leave him alone? Well, he finds out when he meets Castor Rex, a quiet and extremely interesting football player, and that empty part in Jazz's heart feels a little bit bigger when he starts to realize Cas could fill it. Cas sees him as a grinning, happy dork he has no chance with. Jazz sees him as a adorable, grumpy jock that now, is his. Castor wants to get through the school year as quietly as possible but with how loud Jazz loves, neither of them know if it's possible, and to make matters worse they're roommates for the rest of the year. It's only a matter of time before they come together or fall apart. *** Red's Series #4. Crossover to @whoscountinganyways User Series. Can be read as a stand alone.
